Thanks for posting this. I was scanning this on Monday night, and I didn't
see these. I guess you have to keep your eyes open for surprises on
LEGO.com.
As far as the sets go. The 7045, IMO, is a must have, as in I must have
at least 2! :)
My enthusiasm isn't as strong for the 7047, since I don't feel the overall
set design is as good as some of the other World City sets. I do like the
continuation of use in the trans-black (smoke-colored) elements, especially
the quarter round panels. I also like the inclusion of the "evil doctor"
in the set.
Well these are my primary reactions. I noticed that the title of the
theme is "World City Police/Rescue"
I wonder if this means we'll see some Fire Fighting stuff...like a Fire
Station (hopefully a return of the garage doors...<drool>) and some
really nicely detailed fire engines.
Just my 2 cents!!

| (...) I just got off the phone with TLC. They informed me that these sets will be released in the US either late OCT. or early NOV. They are trying to get them out before the 24th so that buyers can take advantage of the free shipping. Larry (21 years ago, 1-Oct-03, to lugnet.town)
