June 2, 2013 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 1 Comment

There are quite a few new polybags that have been revealed that could be released this year. In the month of July, LEGO will be observing the summer season with a LEGO Creator Hot Dog Cart polybag (40078). VIPs will be able to get it FREE with purchases of $75 or more. There’s no word on how the other polybags will be distributed.

LEGO Creator Christmas Tree (30186) – will probably be available around the winter holiday season.

LEGO City Coast Guard Seaplane (30225) – another addition to the water area of the city.

BMW (40200) – Not much information on this but is distributed in conjunction with the German company.
