“The Res-Q Lifeguard set offers a unique addition to the Town theme, with a standout lifeguard post and a rare ponytail piece that enhance the overall experience. While the vehicle feels out of place for a beach setting, the detailed minifigure and strong playability make it worthwhile.”
 

About Town Res-Q

LEGO Res-Q is a subtheme of Town that focused on rescue missions that ran from 1998 to 1999 with most sets released in 1999. The Res-Q sets consist of a total of 6 land vehicles and two motorcycles. Most Res-Q sets, except for the Speedboat, had a bright yellow and black color scheme. After the theme's discontinuation, the Res-Q organization made a few cameo appearances in other LEGO themes.

Res-Q consists of 11 sets that ran from 1998 to 1999. As of today, 6479 Emergency Response Center is the most valuable Res-Q set with an estimated new/factory sealed value of $349.
