June 10, 201411 yr For anyone curious about what the set looks like when built then here is a review of the current little freebie.
June 13, 201411 yr Maybe it's just me, but when every time I look at those "balloons", the first thing that comes to mind is Charms Blow Pops..
June 13, 201411 yr Author Maybe it's just me, but when every time I look at those "balloons", the first thing that comes to mind is Charms Blow Pops..It isn't just you. I thought they looked like Blow Pops too.
June 13, 201411 yr You know, this set could pair with more than just the Fairground Mixer. For example, you could probably also pull off the top half of the balloons, and then pair the balloon cart with the Flying Flusher, and it's now a plunger cart...
June 13, 201411 yr Am I the only one that looks at the balloon cart seller guy and thinks "pedofile"?
June 13, 201411 yr My high school sold blow pops in the cafeteria and we were allowed to suck on them during class. I think the money supported the athletics so the word went down to the teachers to allow it. Loved it then but seems pretty sketchy now.
June 13, 201411 yr That kid looks demented. A tad bit too happy with that giant smile. I agree. I'm not a fan of that style of mouth on some of the minifig faces. I wish they'd stick to a simple line - less is more!
June 13, 201411 yr That kid looks demented. A tad bit too happy with that giant smile. I wish I were that happy about anything in my life...let alone a simple balloon...
June 13, 201411 yr I actually use this on the street of my modular town. The reason is because it does not have that "minimalist" look that the other creator or city mini sets have, for what it is, it is quite detailed. I also have the hot dog card out as well for the same reason
June 13, 201411 yr Kids do get this excited about balloons. I don't why though. My high school sold blow pops in the cafeteria and we were allowed to suck on them during class. I think the money supported the athletics so the word went down to the teachers to allow it. Loved it then but seems pretty sketchy now. I think there are sketchier things that some teachers do with "suckers".
June 17, 201411 yr I agree. I'm not a fan of that style of mouth on some of the minifig faces. I wish they'd stick to a simple line - less is more! Just think of it as the "I'm-going-to-get-a-lollipop-that's-bigger-than-my-torso" smile.
June 17, 201411 yr Those balloons look like something two kids would use to bop each other on the head. Also, dangnabbit, I just realized I missed this promotion.

June 17, 201411 yr It was until the 15th for the USA but they extended it until the 22nd. May get another bump until the end of the month like the rest of the world. Not many resellers stockpiling orders anymore lol.
