Firefighter Aircraft Reviews
Brick Fanatics
“The set also includes blue LEGO elements that can be dropped from the plane, mimicking dropping water on fires from above. With logos for fire departments on the side, both young and older builders alike can get a feel for what fighting fires from the sky is like.”
The Brothers Brick
“Perhaps it doesn’t stand out as a must-have set, but I would argue that the fun factor makes it a cut above the rest. The price per piece is pretty good to get something packed with features. For those reasons, I would highly recommend adding this to your list of... More considerations.”

About Technic
TECHNIC is one of The LEGO Company's main lines based on creating detailed model machines and mechanical toys with specialized beams, axles, gears and connectors and primarily designed for older children and adults. The theme was first introduced as the Expert Builder series in 1977, but was officially renamed as TECHNIC in 1984. TECHNIC is still an active theme, and is one of the longest running themes in LEGO history. While most TECHNIC sets are vehicles that use pieces to mimic real vehicles, such as engine pieces, suspension, pneumatic, and transmission pieces, the TECHNIC parts have been used by various other System themes as well as LEGO Mindstorms.
