Introducing Set 10261 Creator Expert Roller Coaster

It’s time to visit the LEGO® Fun Fair again as the LEGO Group officially announce the latest set to be released as part of the LEGO Creator Expert Amusements range. Get ready to ride with the LEGO Creator Expert Roller Coaster, this amazing new set has been long rumoured, ever since the new roller coaster track pieces were introduced in The LEGO Batman Movie Joker Manor set. As you can see from the images below, the set is a bit of a beast and like past fairground ride sets in the Creator Expert range, it can be upgraded with Power Functions for automated features. But better still, it can also be integrated with LEGO Boost Creative Toolbox to add even more automated features and sound effects. But even without these additional elments the set look like it will be an impressive build and a even more impressive sight when displayed. The set officially launches on June 1st but LEGO VIP members can get early access from May 16th. Learn more about this fun new set below.
