Tomorrow, children, just wait! – Seasonal LEGO highlights

Lego News - November 2013
 

 
In the face of winter’s first heralds, children are captured by a feeling of seasonal anticipation. They pull out paper and pen and start writing their wishlists even in late autumn. According to the Ernst&Young survey on “Most Popular Christmas Presents” from 2010 to 2012, toys always rank among the top five. As diverse as individual wishes may be – every year LEGO sets make it to the top of children’s wishlists in Germany. The LEGO product range provides exciting play fun for everyone – starting from children aged 1+ through to teenagers and young adults. We provide a short overview of the most popular seasonal LEGO highlights:

 

LEGO City Coast Guard Patrol
Playing with LEGO City products children aged 5+ take on the role of their favourite everyday heroes – and reflect their everyday experiences. When a couple is in distress at sea near the LEGO City Lighthouse, when their dinghy is sinking and three sharks surround them, you have to help them quickly. Launch the coast guard patrol boat, the submarine and helicopter to get there fast. Rescue the couple with the life preservers and scare the sharks away with the water cannons – and everyone is safe!




LEGO DUPLO Deluxe Train Set
The new LEGO DUPLO Deluxe Train Set with its cool modern train leaves nothing to be desired. The locomotive with real sound effects arrives at the station! Fuel up for the next trip, jump aboard the train and fill up the wagons with rocks at the quarry. Then unload them with the working crane. Due to the extra large LEGO DUPLO bricks the sets are the perfect seasonal gift for young builders aged 2+.

 




 

LEGO Friends Dolphin Cruiser
Set course for an ocean adventure on the Dolphin Cruiser with Mia, Maya and Andrew! Steer the boat with Andrew and shoot down the waterslide with the girls. Go waterskiing, take a wild ride on the personal watercraft or search for dolphins with the dolphin sonar! LEGO Friends Sets are tailor-made for girls aged 7 to 12. LEGO Friends Sets stand out with highly detailed characters and the possibility to quickly immerse in role play.




LEGO Star Wars™ AT-TE™
For young and not-so-young star warriors aged 9+ LEGO Star Wars™ products bring outer space atmosphere into living rooms. This heavily armoured space tank always comes out on top. The lifting handle and strong poseable legs help to transport Jedi Masters Mace Windu, Coleman Trebor and two commanders safely into the battle of Geonosis. With laser cannons, five minifigures and rotating top-mounted projective cannon with dual flick missiles the AT-TE™ is thoroughly prepared for every conflict.

 




 

LEGO Technic Service Truck
Building enthusiasts aged 10+ that enjoy real challenges will love to take on the new LEGO Technic Service Truck. Just like the real thing the truck helps to rescue stranded vehicles. Activate the included LEGO Power Functions features to extend the rear outriggers or extend and raise the fully adjustable crane arm into position. Then lower the hook with the working winch. The 4-wheel drive with eight wheels and the hydraulic element help to rescue any vehicle.




LEGO MINDSTORMS™ EV3
The new LEGO MINDSTORMS™ EV3 Robot Set tops the wishlist of any robot enthusiast aged 10+. Key element is the new advanced EV3 Intelligent Brick with larger memory unit and faster processor – quasi a programmable LEGO brick. The LEGO MINDSTORMS™ EV3 comes in different model variants and can be controlled by mobile devices. The platform is compatible with iOS and android.
