For some unknown reason, the LEGO London Postcard (40569) has been postponed in North America until January 1, 2023. Note that all of the other new postcard sets are already available with Paris being sold out temporarily and London has also been released in other parts of the world. It’s nothing too earth shattering but it’s just weird that only one of them would get delayed until next year since it was supposed to be released back in July.

Along with the LEGO Ideas Cosmic Cardboard Adventures (40533) promotion, the LEGO Children’s Amusement Park (40529) is also available until May 30. You can get the 170 piece set for free with purchases of $90.

There are two minifigures with this set, the boy and girl. The boy wears a banana flannel shirt while the girl has on a red striped shirt.

There are a few amusement park attractions that are in the set. One is a duck/frog toss game, both of which are yellow.

The strength test has a very short height as the hammer itself is almost as tall as the game. It uses a functional mechanism that allows the gray piece to go up when you hit the target.

The main part of the build is the banana boat ride. The yellow swing pieces used for the boat are fairly rare as it was only used in Rapunzel’s Tower (43187) from 2020. There are some jungle sticker decorations for the two posts on the side and a banana sticker for the hood piece. There’s also a monkey holding a banana peeking out from the sign but it looks bad from the back.

Overall the LEGO Children’s Amusement Park (40529) is a fun little set and the price to get it is somewhat reasonable. The attractions do integrate with your Fairground Collection very well although they’re quite smaller than the current rides. Again, you can get it now until May 30 with purhases of $90.

Thank you to LEGO for sending in this set … Continue
