“This is a good set. You get the rare Arctic minifig with the blue parka, and a green-suited driver for the plow. I would have rather had a snowmobile as opposed to the small car with the robotic arm... Quite a few good elements here, especially the orange pieces, the... More snowshoes, and the trans-neon-green spider.”

“It includes two vehicles, one that is a snow plow, and the other is a remote controlled vehicle with a crane that can lift a translucent meteorite that has a spider inside. This set includes two arctic explorer Minifigures, Cosmo and Scooter. The set also contains a variety... More of accessories and tools such as a pick-axe, a radio, and a spade. The plow appears in the video game LEGO Racers 2 as a drivable vehicle. It contains 119 pieces.”

About Town Arctic

LEGO Arctic was a 2000 Town subtheme that was centered around arctic exploration. The sets featured several snow vehicles and a research station. Arctic's background story involved meteors that were falling to Earth in locations around the Arctic and the explorers tracked down the impact sites to collect these meteors. Arctic was later reintroduced in 2014 through the City theme but instead of the word Arctic in the logo, there is a seal with the continent of Antarctica.

Arctic was introduced in 2000 and currently consists of 8 sets. As of today, 6575 Polar Base is the most valuable Arctic set with an estimated new/factory sealed value of $349.
