I think that this set is better than the Public Transport set, but not by much. Public transport was considered a train set by some LEGO train collectors. Quote

To call it a train set is abit over it, but the tram really has some added value. But with Town Square, it's the same, like MartinP said, I also like the buildings and ALL vehicles alot. Quote

The crane is my favorite vehicle in the set because it resembles the 7249 XXL Mobile Crane that I wanted years ago. After looking at both of them, the crane in the Town Square looks like a smaller version of the 7249. Quote
Neosphinx Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 Think the crane is even smaller than 7633 construction site but would need to put them next to eachother. Still good size tho and imo a 'cool' looking vehicle, just didn't expect it in a town square. Quote

The crane in the 60026 set is about 25 studs long '> The crane in the 7633 set is about 30 studs long http://bricks.argz.com/ins/7633-1/194 Edited October 5, 2014 by biniou 1 Quote

The larger crane would go better with some of the larger sets like the modulars or in a MOC. The smaller scale of the crane fits perfectly for this set. Quote
biniou Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 (edited) -nevermind- I thought we were talking about 7633, not 7249... Edited October 5, 2014 by biniou Quote
Neosphinx Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 7633 has better build crane then Town Square tho. Pfff why couldn't they have put a tram in Town Square ffs. Quote

Guest TabbyBoy Posted December 4, 2014 Posted December 4, 2014 It's one of the very few CITY sets (I can count them on one finger!) that I have faith in which I why I bought a plural amount when Amazon discounted them. It's very rare to see a discount on this set. It's also a good one to part out. Quote

Out of the Dark Years Posted December 9, 2014 Posted December 9, 2014 I'm not a city fan but I do like this set. Hopefully it does well. Quote
makr Posted December 9, 2014 Posted December 9, 2014 Agreed. Sadly enough I haven't seen any good promo on it and at 99 Quote
Ciglione Posted December 9, 2014 Posted December 9, 2014 It was 79,95 euro for a while in Belgium at Collishop. But I was too late. Now it is back to 109,95 euro I think. Thanks for the tip on Galeria Kaufhof makromizer! I will look at it tonight. Quote

I wanted to tell you that it's still 79.95 since I checked this noon for it, but when I refreshed indeed 109.95. For shame... was waiting for a -10% promo :-/ They changed all special prices again. That COULD mean another promo is coming. Hope it will be any good. Edited December 9, 2014 by Neosphinx Quote

I checked at 14:00 hours. So I just missed it for a hair! You think? If I recall correctly from last year the next promo will be after Xmas. The 2nd of January I believe. That is when I bought my two SSD's for 299 euro each. Edited December 9, 2014 by Ciglione Quote
Ciglione Posted December 9, 2014 Posted December 9, 2014 Neo, can you check the stocklevel on this one? Quote

I don't think, I rephrase to I HOPE At least it has been a very good period with the town halls and r2's. I can't complain. If I miss this one, it won't keep me up at night. Stock is 46 atm so there is a possibility it will see january, especially with the high pricepoint again should no new deliveries be made. Quote
