LEGO 60304 City Road Plates Building Toys, Set with Traffic Lights, Trees and Glow in the Dark Bricks, Gifts for 5 Plus Year Old Boys and Girls

As with all Lego it’s expensive for what it is and not a huge amount of play value for a fairly small stretch of road but useful to join other sets together and son loves the glow in the dark street lights.

Bought for my 6 year old grandson. A great addition to pieces he already has. As always with anything Lego it’s great quality and value for money.

Great bargain. Great product. Road plates are important if you’re building a Lego city

All ok, thank you.

I’m an adult collector of Lego, but my kids love it too. Whilst these road plates clearly have flaws if you are trying to use them with existing thinner baseplates they are absolute fantastic for kids to play with and configure in different ways. However, you could definitely use them in a city layout if you built up your base plates (for example using MILS). Yes they’re very shiny, unlike the road plates of my childhood, but I’m not mad at that.My daughter loves all the signs and plants that came with these plates and has got a lot of play value out of them, they’ve been by a beach, they’ve been part of a town, with city Lego and with Lego friends. Lots of the current sets come with compatible road plates so it’s lovely to be able to build and connect various sets. I got these at a really good price and would really recommend them:)

Kids an i enjoyed this as a way to connect other packs together - school with shops. Now need to find a permeant place to put all on display

Compared to the old vintage grey street plates, this new edition does look more premium. They are also more versatile, as you can change the lines with the little grey pieces and so you can pretty much make what you want (except a curve). There is the addition of street lights, traffic lights and some signage.However they do seem small compared to the cars and trucks that I/my kids own. And that's the one thing that's quite annoying with the various re-incarnations of cars, trucks etc of Lego over the years - none of them seem to match. There doesn't seem to be any logic to their sizing of cars, trucks etc So basically these new streets are quite small. Even compared to the "current" release of cars and trucks. Anyhow, my kids don't seem to mind LOL, but it irks me.

Bought these to see what this new system is all about. In the box you get 4 ‘standard’ road plate sections and the zebra crossing plate which is half the size of the standard road plates.The plates can be arranged in a variety of ways using 2x4 grey tiles to lock them together. You also get printed road mark tiles to place in the middle of the roads.The street furniture is a great addition, you get two printed street signs, 2 street lights with a white glow in the dark tile, trees, flowers and speed humps.This set can be used to attach to other Lego City sets coming out in 2021, making it easy to grow your city.The best part of this system is the amount of customisation options. With additional pieces you can make dual carriageways, multi-storey car parks, petrol station forecourts and even bridges using the new plate system.The downside is that there’s no footpath for pedestrians and the roads are 2 plates in height meaning that they are taller than pavements on the modular building sets.I like the new system but hope they can coexist with the classic road plates. After all the older system is cheaper and features curves. The new plates are going to be fantastic for MOCs.
