“For many reasons a set definitely worth buying except if your City layout completely excludes the possibility of forest fires.”

“The main part of the set is the "water bomber" fire plane. The plane is large, has twin propellers and pontoons for water landings. It can hold two minifigures in the cockpit. The plane also has a "water" tank holding transparent blue 1x1x3 cylinders representing water which... More can be dropped out of a hatch on the bottom of the plane.”

About City Forest Fire

The LEGO City Forest Fire subtheme, branching out from the broader LEGO City line, centers on the efforts of firefighters combatting wildfires in woodland settings. Introduced over various years, this theme offers sets that depict both the urgency and challenges of containing forest blazes. With firefighting vehicles equipped for rough terrains, helicopters with water-drop capabilities, and detailed minifigures of forest firefighters, the sets provide a representation of the battle against nature's fury and the valor of those who stand against it.

Forest Fire was introduced in 2012 and currently consists of 6 sets. As of today, 4430 Fire Transporter is the most valuable Forest Fire set with an estimated new/sealed value of $212.
Summary
