On the 1st of January 2025, the LEGO City theme started the brand new year off in style with a total of 21 sets hitting shelves. Those 21 sets include six models branded under LEGO's multi-year partnership with Formula 1 along with plenty of City Life vehicles. However, unlike previous years, the wave didn't include many Police, Fire and Emergency based sets.
For those who are fans of those kinds of sets, we expect plenty of Police, Fire and Emergency builds and vehicles in the themes summer wave along with a brand new LEGO City Police set releasing on the 1st of March 2025. In particular, this is 60449 Off-Road Police Car Chase which includes a total of 467 pieces retailing for $36.99 / €39.99 / £34.99 after it was officially revealed earlier today.
As the name suggests, the LEGO City's police department are going off-road with a high-speed chase. An off-road police SUV car is unsurprisingly included with large wheels and a small prison cell at the rear of the vehicle. The LEGO City police department also get a quad bike and a drone in 60449, matching the usual LEGO City police scheme of dark blue and white.
But the police department aren't the only ones having fun in this chase as the crooks also get their own vehicle of a muscle pickup truck coloured black, dark tan and red. The truck includes space for one Minifigure to drive the vehicle along with a stolen safe loosely attached to the vehicle's rear. A total of four Minifigure are included in the $40 set of two police officers and two crooks.
