LEGO City Sets to Feature New Interactive Brick

June 5, 2024 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

Brickset has discovered some new LEGO City sets which will feature a new interactive brick to enhance play with the sets. These sets include the Jungle Explorer Base Camp (60691), The Lost Crocodile Temple (60692), and the Survivor Island Seaplane (60693). These sets feature an interactive brick along with tile tags and interactive minifigures which will “deliver a sensory-rich and responsive play experience for kids.”

It looks like the smart bricks is currently being beta tested over in the UK and should hopefully spread to other markets later on. North America doesn’t even have any of these sets listed yet so we’ll probably have to wait a few more months to see what they’re all about.
