You can find them all under the LEGO City section of the Online LEGO Shop.
➡ 2017 LEGO CREATOR SUMMER SETS: There are five new LEGO Creator sets this summer.

➡ LEGO MINECRAFT VIP EARLY ACCESS: LEGO VIP members will get early access to the humongous #21137 LEGO Minecraft The Mountain Cave set, starting on the 15th of June. Regular release will be on the 1st of July. You can already check out the details of the set under the LEGO Minecraft section of the Online LEGO Shop.
As you can see, there are plenty of new sets to choose from, no matter what is your interest or budget. If you are planning to get the #21309 LEGO Ideas NASA Apollo Saturn V, I would suggest you do so right away, as LEGO Ideas sets are limited release. The other sets should be available all summer long, so you can spread out your purchases, especially since the free promotional items are not so exciting this month.
