Review for LEGO set 6398 Central Precinct HQ from Lego Maniacs' Guide
“The model is a definite must-have and you will be very pleased with it if you pick it up in an old dusty toy store or auction. The model is a definite must-have and you will be very pleased with it if you pick it up in an old dusty toy store or auction. Also, the inclusion... More of four well built vehicles and two baseplates is a huge plus. The alternate models on the box will also please you. They include a toll booth with control center, a cool SWAT team truck, and a small hotel.”
