“A must for your swamp collection. The benefit of this set is that it features a nice big bad guy airboat that floats, a smaller good guy raft that also floats and is carried by the good guy jeep. The jeep is really nice and has great hood detail and an enclosed back for... More prisoner transport. A small sea helicopter which does not float is also included. There is a bad guy hideout and safe with money, a dock, and windmill. Overall I prefer this to the police headquarters because if you also buy the hovercraft and halftrack the headquarters has little to offer.”

“The Crooks’ Hideout set is packed with playability, featuring a police helicopter, SUV, raft, and the crooks’ hovercraft and hideout. The detailed hideout includes boarded windows, a windmill, and a secret safe, while the included swamp elements like a gator and snake enhance the setting.”
