Collectors

Investors

“All of these sets have a lot of cool features that bring a construction scene, a safari, or a rescue scene to life. There are lots of storytelling possibilities with each one. Any one of these would make a nice addition to a LEGO City collection.”

New Elementary

“This is a fairly basic set, at least by New Elementary standards, and so something that AFOLs may easily overlook. It is the kind of set designed to appeal to younger children who might just be able to pester a parent into buying it for them during a trip to the supermarket.... More It offers good value for money and plenty of play value and I have often seen it available on discount.”
