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. 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 function Fun accessories – LEGO minifigure accessories include a toy watering can, shovel, hay fork, barrel, carrots, pumpkins, sweet corn, grapes, jalapeños and apples 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.
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 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.
The van
Play 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 vehicle, resplendent in orange and green livery, matches the style and size of previous great vehicles in the City range. 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! 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.
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. 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 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'. 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).Designed for young LEGO fans – Includes an easy-to-follow pictorial printed building guide for each toy
