LEGO City heads into the wild, introducing elephants, lions and new monkeys!

May 2, 2021 By Jay 6 Comments

More LEGO Summer 2021 sets have been revealed – this time from LEGO City, which is going Safari and Animal-research themed for the second half of 2021!

These will be released in Asia Pacific and Europe on 1 June 2021, and in the Americas (USA, Canada and South America) on 1 August 2021.

In case you missed it, check out new LEGO Mickey & Friends, Ninjago Seabound and Creator 3-in-1 to catch up on all the new Summer 2021 sets coming soon – probably June 2021.

These sets will be available from LEGO.com, LEGO Stores, and most toy stores that carry LEGO.

In case you missed it, here’s all the other Summer 2021 LEGO sets revealed so far:

  • Creator 3-in-1 Medieval Castle
  • Creator 3-in-1 Ferris Wheel & Space Shuttle
  • LEGO City Safari
  • Ninjago Seabound (Season 15) & Legacy
  • LEGO Mickey & Friends
  • Vidiyo Wave 2 Minifigures
  • Vidiyo Wave 2

Let’s take a closer look at the sets revealed so far:

  • 60300 Wildlife Rescue ATV – AU$15.99 / £8.99 / US$9.99
  • 60301 Wildlife Rescue Off-Roader – AU$69.99 / £39.99 / US$49.99
  • 60302 Wildlife Rescue Operation – AU$159.99 / £74.99 / US$$89.99

LEGO 60300 Animal Rescue ATV

60300 Wildlife Rescue ATV – AU$15.99 / £8.99 / US$9.99

In the smallest set so far revealed, we get a great look at these new monkeys! They look like they can hang off rods, and they also have one minifigure clip hand to grab on to stuff!

Can’t wait to amass an entire army of these monkeys.

LEGO 60301 Animal Rescue Off-Road Vehicle

60301 Wildlife Rescue Off-Roader – AU$69.99 / £39.99 / US$49.99

This 4+ set features the king of the Jungle – a new Lion mould and an astonishingly adorable Lion Cub as well. Perfect to re-enact the Lion King if you ask me!

Also included is a brand new python, which I think is a snake featuring printed details across its body!

LEGO 60302 Animal Rescue Operation

60302 Wildlife Rescue Operation – AU$159.99 / £74.99 / US$$89.99

The largest set reveals the new elephant moulds, a triumphant return of these big lumbering beasts – not seen in a LEGO set (non-Friends) since 2003’s Elephant Caravan.

LEGO Animal fans will be delighted with these new moulds, although its trunk looks kinda weird.

Additionally, there’s this cute egg that’s just about to hatch, as well as a closer look at the bandaged hand for the monkey.

60307 Wildlife Rescue Camp

60307 Wildlife Rescue Camp – AU$159.99 / £89.99 / US$99.99

What do you think of these new LEGO City animals? Are you a big fan of the Elephants or Lions?

    The animals look great, but I’m not very interested in the vehicles
    I’ll combine with the camouflaged photographer and the new Creator waterhole set, now I just need to get the leopard…

    So excited!!! Lego Animals are one of my favorite things to collect. I’ve been wanting an updated elephant for a long time! Plus the monkeys are absolutely adorable.
