Lego Maniacs' Guide
“The Aerial Recovery set is a great combination of helicopter, tri-wheel cycle and dinghy with three rescue specialists to man each vehicle. The dinghy and cycle are very basic elements of only one or two pieces but this is my first cycle and I really like it. The fork snaps... More into the main body which allows the front wheel to be turned left or right and there are more than a few studs adorning the bike for add-on features; also, there is a hitching nook at the rear of the cycle for towing needs.”

About Town Res-Q
