Insights

Released as an airline-exclusive promotional, Police Helicopter (4473) retired with constrained distribution and variant-box interest, and sealed examples have shown post-retirement appreciation, but frequent City Police remakes and non-unique minifigures limit upside and keep demand niche.

Set Facts

The set includes two minifigures with unique police uniforms different from standard designs.
The helicopter features a functional winch system linked to the rotors, allowing the winch to move when the rotors spin.
The set was planned for release in late 2012, although it was released in 2013.

“Although it's one of the least appealing airline specials of recent years, it's not a bad model. It would certainly keep a child occupied for an hour or two on a long-haul flight which is, of course, what they are designed for. Unless you're a collector of airline specials,... More there's no compelling reason to go out of your way to track it down or pay a ridiculous sum for it. But if you see it in the brochure whilst on board a plane, snap it up!”

BrickEconomy Member Review

“This compact helicopter set features a detailed build using individual pieces rather than large pre-molded parts, offering an authentic LEGO experience. Highlights include a printed control panel, minimal stickers, and a clever winch mechanism integrated with the spinning rotors.”

About City Police

Police has been part of LEGO City from the start in 2005, and police sets go back further still, to the Town theme of the late 1970s. Police comes back every year or two with a new wave built around a police station, the anchor of the range, which has been rebuilt every few years since 7237 Police Station of 2005.

Police was introduced in 2005 and currently consists of 110 sets. As of today, 7237-2 Police Station is the most valuable Police set with an estimated new/factory sealed value of $496.
