   It seems very strange especially with the availability of #60026. Both sets offer a bus, pizza shop, bike shop, and kid on a skateboard. My guess is #60031 was considered but eventually replaced with #60026.

   I don't think they are cancelling 60026: it's already available for order in Europe from the S@H site... Anyway I have to admin I am really happy to see this back!

   This would seem more plausible if #60026 wasn't just being released. I think #7641 is nicer (especially the bus in it) and doesn't have a redundant crane to drive up the price so I'd still be happy with it being re-released though.

   #60026 is in the stores in the UK, so it's not cancelled (unless it's going to be cut to a very short run).

   On the one hand, this seemed a popular set with kids at the time and I see has also been selling at quite a big premium on the secondary market, so can see there would be demand. However, on the other if this is true (and isn't some form of either error or spoof) it would seem a very odd decision alongside the new Town…

   Wow, so this is real after all? I was expecting this to turn out to have been a weird comedy of errors. Very surprising news. I just got a used one three months ago but I'm still happy about this. #7641 is one of my favourite City sets from the last few years. The yellow bus is gorgeous. (This still doesn't make much sense…

   I am just completely perplexed by this whole thing. Of all the sets made in the past couple years, re-releasing this one has to make close to the least amount of sense, given that they are already releasing a brand new set that is extremely duplicative to this one. I can only think of two possible explanations: 1) there is…
