Medical is the LEGO City line for doctors, paramedics and hospitals. It was part of City from the first years, with 7890 Ambulance and 7892 Hospital in 2006, and it returns every few years with new ambulances, rescue helicopters and air ambulance planes. Full hospitals are rarer, and 60204 City Hospital from 2018 is the largest, with a lift, a patient room, a helicopter pad and 12 minifigures. More recent sets put medical rescue together with the other services, as in 60371 Emergency Vehicles HQ, where ambulances share a station with other emergency vehicles.
2012 LEGO Sets
2012 was a landmark year highlighted by LEGO’s 80th anniversary and major licensed expansions. LEGO The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit joined the lineup alongside Marvel and DC Super Heroes, establishing enduring partnerships with both comic universes. LEGO Friends debuted, introducing mini-doll figures and Heartlake City, becoming one of LEGO’s most successful modern themes. Other launches included Monster Fighters, Disney Princess, and Dino. Alien Conquest, Atlantis, Pharaoh’s Quest, Kingdoms, and Harry Potter retired, though Harry Potter would later return in 2018.
