City Advent Calendar - Day 6
Posted by MeganL,
Yesterday we met Sam Grizzled, our first minifigure of the calendar. I think that today we may see a minifigure sized build to suit Sam, or maybe something festive? Hope springs eternal.
Another microscale it is! This is clearly a police vehicle - not only do the colours make that clear, but similar to the ambulance that has the cast attached, this vehicle has a pair of handcuffs. Going through recent City sets, particularly those that include Sam, I think this vehicle is from 60273 Elite Police Driller Chase.
A nice microbuild, but it doesn't even have red or green....

Hmm, if it is ment to be that one, it's a pretty poor rendition, in my opinion.
The amount of white at the back has me thinking it might be the one from 60242.
I don't really think everything needs to be Christmassy/'festive' in an LEGO advent calendar? I mean, it's Advent, not Christmas. Christmas doesn't start until the 25th of December.
It is a CITY themed calendar not a Christmas themed calendar after all.
This and the ambulance have me picturing a world where all professional vehicles have giant versions of the tools of their trade hanging off them.
I miss the days of city calendars being more winter village-y, but this isn't a bad little car.
I like to think of these micro builds as being toys for the kids of LEGO city
Which shade of yellow is this? Fiat yellow, new yellow, another shade oy light yellow I'm forgetting?
I'm with Rogue10 ,any micro is toy shop fayre
Green seems a stretch for a police car (at least in the US, excluding the National Park Service police force), but the light bar could easily have been red and blue 1x1 tiles.
Keep the microbuilds coming :) I also don’t mind Advent Calendars not having a “Christmas” theme. I just
like the concept of Advent Calendars. 24 days of mini surprises is very fun. And in the case of LEGO, fun little builds or minifigures for 24 days. The best kind of Advent Calendar!
