Insights

Released in the 1990s and retired for many years, Central Precinct HQ maintains appeal as a vintage Town Police flagship, with nostalgia and a shortage of high-grade sealed copies supporting collectability, and remakes of police headquarters have introduced some competition and condition-driven volatility.

Set Facts

It includes four vehicles (helicopter, motorcycle, a small police car, and a 4x4 off-road truck) and two baseplates. The Central Precinct complex consists of three buildings, all interconnected.
The set includes four police officers and Crazy Charlie as minifigures.
The build features a police building with a jail cell, a crime lab, and office spaces spread across multiple floors.
Vehicles included are two police cars (one with spring suspension), a helicopter, and a motorcycle.

“The model is a definite must-have and you will be very pleased with it if you pick it up in an old dusty toy store or auction. The model is a definite must-have and you will be very pleased with it if you pick it up in an old dusty toy store or auction. Also, the inclusion... More of four well built vehicles and two baseplates is a huge plus. The alternate models on the box will also please you. They include a toll booth with control center, a cool SWAT team truck, and a small hotel.”

“The police series has been a constant staple in Lego's most sold sets. Every 2-3 years, a new police station (just like their fire and gas stations) would come out. However this station set new standards, especially compared to what the fire series has not yet accomplished.... More This station completely diverged from the previous designs of one garage plus 1-2 motorcycles + helicopter type of formula.”
