LEGO City 2014 Monster Truck 60055 Set Revealed & Photos!

With the humongous number of LEGO 2014 set photos that have been leaking out onto the internet this month, you might think that we’d already seen everything there was to see for 2014. However, that’s not true by a long shot! We have, however, now seen the entirety of the LEGO City 2014 January sets. Revealed just today, it’s the final winter 2014 LEGO City set–the LEGO City Monster Truck 60055 set!

I’m ordinarily not a big LEGO City collector, and I’m even less of a collector of the small sets with under 100 pieces. But in 2014, LEGO is striking at my heartstrings again, when they release LEGO 60055 Monster Truck set! We had previously heard that another LEGO City Monster Truck was in the works, but the first images of the set were just posted by Toys R Us today.

The LEGO Monster Truck 60055 contains 78 pieces, as well as one LEGO minifigure driver and various decals to stick onto the set. This will actually be the second Monster Truck LEGO set released in a one-year span, as the way-cool LEGO City Monster Truck Transporter 60027 was released earlier in 2013. That set contained a red LEGO Monster Truck, but the LEGO City 2014 Monster Truck will be a slick-looking black and lime green model! For a $9.99-$10.99 set ($11.99 at Toys R Us’ inflated prices), this set is just too cute for me to skip!

The 60055 LEGO Monster Truck is part of the LEGO City winter 2014 sets wave, and should be released in all stores by January 2014. I think it’s a safe bet that this set will actually sneak out via some retailers before 1/1/2014, however, and I’ll send out an update via the Bricks and Bloks Facebook page once the set is sighted in stores or online.
