About this deal

The rear doors are created using the new 6x6 double door frame and two 80683 DOOR 3X6 which are new in white.

The section of field may be small and the crops not particularly realistic, but nevertheless it looks great and something we've not seen in a set before. The corn piece is a welcome addition to both foodstuff and plant elements. Carrots are also being grown, and an almost-hidden play feature transforms them from small plant to a full-grown root vegetable, which mysteriously is growing above the ground! Premium-quality toys – All LEGO components meet strict industry standards to ensure they are consistent, compatible and fun to build with: it’s been that way since 1958

The giant carrot on the top clearly signals what the van is selling but the drag it creates will surely increase fuel consumption, or perhaps reduce kilometres per kilowatt if it's an electric van. Perhaps an opportunity was missed to mark it as such, to further the set's 'green appeal'. A gift for all occasions – The Farmers Market Van playset can be given as a holiday, birthday or any-other-day gift for boys and girls aged 5 and up Fun accessories – LEGO minifigure accessories include a toy watering can, shovel, hay fork, barrel, carrots, pumpkins, sweet corn, grapes, jalapeños and apples Designed for young LEGO fans – Includes an easy-to-follow pictorial printed building guide for each toy

Exactly, this is the kind of thing I would buy for a child (like the recent City ice cream van 60253 too or the tractor 60287). The healthy food aspect will have an appeal to parents too. And it's colourful, and not trying to appeal just to one gender (as I fear some of the more conflict based sets are). What’s in the box? – All kids need to build a mobile farm shop and veggie patch, with lots of play-inspiring features, plus 3 minifigures, including a LEGO City TV character, and a rabbit figurePlay and learn – The buildings, settings, vehicles and characters featured in LEGO City playsets inspire imaginative play that helps kids develop creative skills and confidence The new dual-moulded corn piece, 1411 VEGETABLE, NO. 4, looks fantastic, although I believe the cereal grain is usually harvested before the yellow kernels become visible. It's great to see the City theme yielding something other than emergency services, construction or fast cars: simply ordinary folk going about their daily business and I hope that we see more like it in the future. it's the sort of set that parents would choose to buy their kids rather than one focusing on conflict."

The bright colours and pleasing design should also make it attractive to youngsters, too, and I suspect it's the sort of set that parents would choose to buy their kids rather than one focusing on conflict.

Crops

The plants make use of a new piece, 1566 PLANT, W/ 3.2 SHAFT, NO. 1, that connects to 37762 CANDLE, NO. 1, to form the stems.

Fun functions – The Farmers Market Van comes with a serving window, opening side doors, rear doors and a minifigure cab, while the veggie patch features a fun carrot-growing functionThe vehicle, resplendent in orange and green livery, matches the style and size of previous great vehicles in the City range. The window on the left side slides open enabling customers to be served. As usual, though, the hatch is a bit high compared to the height of a minifigure. The model consists of two parts and the first to be constructed is a section of 'field' although given the variety of crops growing in such a small space it's more like an allotment. Dimensions – When built, the LEGO City Farmers Market Van measures over 4 in. (10 cm) high, 10 in. (25 cm) long and 6.5 in. (17 cm) wide
