Helicopter Transporter Reviews
“Overall this set was pretty good. It comes with two cops and two robbers. It also has the Helicopter, semi, a motorcycle, and a dune buggy. The motorcycle is really cool and the dune buggy is alright. The semi looks amazing and the helicopter is really cool to.”

Brickset
Unusual police set with top chopper — “I like the look of the set, and this helicopter design seems to be fairly unique within Lego. The set offers also a lot of opportunity for play: a dirt-bike, buggy, helicopter, tractor-trailer, two cops and two criminals: a lot of chasing can be done. Overall, I think this... More quite a good set, with and if found for around the original RRP definitely good value for money.”

The crooks are on their way to hide the stolen goods in their secret opening rock hideout and must be captured. Chase after the crooks in the heavy-duty Helicopter Transporter, and if they go off-road on their dirt bike and tough dune buggy, jump in the lightweight helicopter, spin up the rotors and continue the chase from the air. Track them down, arrest the crooks and recover the valuables before it's too late.
