Arctic is an arctic-themed subtheme of City released in the summer of 2014. It involves a group of arctic explorers investigating crystals found in the ice.
Description[edit | edit source]
The theme involves a small variety of vehicles, such as helicopters and snowmobiles, as well as structures, used by the minifigures. These vehicles and structures are orange and have transparent blue windshields. The arctic minifigures generally have orange torsos, and many also have snowshoes, blue hoods, and goggles, with the goggles only being printed onto their heads as opposed to existing as physical pieces. The minifigures occasionally also use dog sleds, which are generally small and pulled by a team of four huskies. The minifigures are researching the ice and ice crystals, with the ice normally taking the form of a sphere-like crystal similar to a LEGO boulder that can be separated into a top and bottom half.
History[edit | edit source]
The Arctic subtheme of City was introduced in summer 2014, with most of the summer wave City sets being from the Arctic subtheme. NIne sets from the subtheme were released at this time. Pieces introduced in this subtheme included a recoloring of the 2012 bear and huskies.
