“This set features two straightforward vehicles: a passenger car with a unique design and a tow truck reminiscent of an earlier model. While the build is simple and relies on stickers rather than printed elements, it includes a well-detailed mechanic minifigure with accessories. Its limited availability and alternate build possibilities add a touch of interest to an otherwise basic set.”
