Hooray Hooray! For the first time in ages, we have Lego City stuff thats not a Fire or Police Station. Brilliant. being the overgrown manchild that I am, I emailed Lego earlier in the year and asked them why they didn't make more mundane City sets anymore and I was told to watch this space. Well, here we are!First off, the bus is excellent. Has there ever been a Lego bus before? I'm not so sure there has been, but this version is excellent. It has plenty of seats, a nice colourscheme, lovely details (i like the adverts) and a cheery driver. Only some better doors would have improved this - or at least ones detailed to look like the sliding ones you get on real buses.Next we drop off the jolly businessman at his bus stop (he must be an ethical city type,happy to mix with the hoi polloi on public transport!), which is a lovely detailed effort. I am particularly fond of the streetlamp. Yes, you may mock, but its a neat bit of engineering. there's no timetable, suggesting this is one of those mid-point stops where you just have to turn up and hope for the best.Just along from this we stop off at the skate shop to hang out with Grizzly Mick (probably has tatoos and plays heavy metal or - God help us -Emo in his shop), proprietor of 'rad' skateboards and 'sick' bicycles. Oh yes, I'm down with the kids - and look here's one now on his skateboard! he's a nice touch, but i don't like the stumpy midget legs, it makes the figure look deformed (obviously, this is a personal thing). The shop is fairly sparse, but has the right level of detail for something its size, with a cheery sign and CCTV camera and funky window display. I do like the way the skateboard is hung for display. Lovely.finally, after all that excitement, we go to the imaginatively titled Pizza restauruant (its called 'Pizza'. wonder what they sell there..?). This is a lovley old-school inspired set. The three floors are modular and clipped together, with the groundfloor containing the takeaway part with superbly worked Pizza oven and paddle for handling the Pizzas - just like in a proper pizzeria! The second floor contains the restaurant, which has a couple of tables and chairs and wine glasses. Its not big on detail, but it does the job. the attic is empty, unfortunately. It would have been good to make this some kind of office/ storage area perhaps. As with the old school sets, there's no stairwells (unlike with the highly detailed but massivley expensive Greengrocer's / Cafe Corner sets) so its down to your imagination to work out how the folk get upstairs, but frankly, that didn't bother me then and it doesn't now. The place is run by Brenda, who seems not to care that she should perhaps be wearing a hairnet so she doesn't get her hair in people's food. i'd watch out if I were eating there!This is a smashing little set with loads of play value. It could have been improved with the addition of maybe two more minfigures, but decorated with the smaller City Mini-figures set, this really looks great. Hopefully, this will do enough business to allow further non-emergency service sets to be released and perhaps as individual pieces, rather than as a huge box set of mulitple items.

This was a set that my son had wanted for some time and we decided to purchase it for a Christmas present. The box is large, however, when you open the Lego and once made up it is quite a small set. My son was a little disappointed and there wasn't much to do with it either, he said. It now sits on a shelf and isn't played with at all. If you have a child that is collecting Lego then this may be OK for them, but if they like the more interactive sets, that actually do something then leave this one alone. Not cheap either.

I was shocked at how dear it is,But it's worth it in a way and was helpful considering i needed a town for my next Brickfilm.£10 cheaper than Lego.com Itself,Which i was easily pleased with and guess what? Free Delivery.Although the box came with big dints in,It didn't affect me enjoying it what-so-ever. Although i put prime delivery on this,some-one must hate Lego because the box looks like some-one kept kicking it and smacking it on the floor.It's just a box though.

Purchased this for my 8 year old daughter's birthday. Had trouble getting hold of it from Argos etc. but you can always count on Amazon! Great set of lego with lots of figures. It was about the only lego set (apart from the house) that was geared towards both boys and girls. She has spent hours playing with it and rebuilding it. Great purchase at a great price. Would highly recommend this lego set.

Lego city corner has been bought for our 7yr old grandson, he loves lego and plays with all of his sets every spare moment he can. Amazon was the only company selling this for a reasonable price and free delivery. Ordered on the Monday, delivered on the Thursday, brilliant service, thank you. Merry Christmas to all Jan

It was fun playing with the skater and cyclist but when i got to the end of building the pizza place TWO BITS WERE MISSING!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. I was very disappointed, but Amazon sorted the problem out without any fuss and they are sending me another one first class post!!

My 8 year old son brought this with his birthday money to add to his ever growing lego collection and it is excellent value for money. (bus is especially good with lots of detail)it was a very good price as was as much as £20 more expensive on other sites/shopswell recommended

We bought this as a birthday present for our 10year old grandson. He loved it and and set to building it straight away with the help of his Grandad. It arrived in good time and delighted us all.

Hours of fun... but they wouldn't let me play. The latest addition to our Lego City gives extra scope for the fire brigade and the police to continue their daily escapades.

My 11 year daughter wanted this, which surprised me, but she has loved playing with. No trouble building it and she thinks the bus and the pizza palour are great.
