It's getting very near the end. On our penultimate piece of Toy Fair publicizing, we take a peek at some of the themes that focus more on creativity than roleplaying. You all wanted to see Technic, so there's that, along with Creator, Bricks & More, and Duplo. Read on to check them all out.

I really really really hope that the orange motorcycle creator set will have a motorcycle sound brick. I really need one of those for a moc I'm making

edit. I am stupid for not realizing that this set has already came out. So there is no motorcycle sound brick included.

But I really hope they bring the motorcyle sound brick back for future sets. I really do need one.

Even when things look there worst. And the shadow of evil is upon us. Remember that as long as we hope for the best. Light will appear and overcome the darkness.

Lego has the Princesses brand? There's no way this stays Duplo only right? It makes total sense to me that the Minidolls might be co-opted for use in a future Princess line. That would be huge.

I just got the tow truck a couple days age. A bit pricey (94 american dollars), but amazed by it after building it. Feels sturdy too lol.

The rest look disappointing though and the princesses look deformed. O_O

Duplo Car and princesses my kids are going to love it.

It's the bears that enforce the law in LEGO CITY.

LEGO has not said anything, but I agree - that would be a huge seller for LEGO.

This next round of new Lego sets have more sets that are worth retail to me than any previous year. I'll have a really hard time choosing what to buy.

The cupcake set is really interesting, but the idea has merit.

Part of why it seems underwhelming is that it seems for some reason they didn't exhibit the two big summer sets at this Toy Fair (they were at the other international Toy Fairs). These sets are a Rock Crawler (in other words, a motorized ATV with some INCREDIBLE suspension) and a helicopter (chock full of features, including what appear to be adjustable-pitch rotors). Both of these sets are absolutely epic, and certainly fill similar roles as flagships to sets like last year's Unimog.
