Fire Helicopter Response Reviews
“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.”

“The set comes with three minifigures, which is quite a lot for a set coming at a price below 20€. We have a worker with a welding torch, a simple helicopter pilot and Freya McCloud, who also seems to feature in some kind of TV series. She has a fire extinguisher and a large... More axe at her disposal. Quite some nice figures - if the set worked.”
