Recommendation: meh 9 / 10 by Nachos Grande

Overall, I'd say this starter set is nearly perfect. I wish the ambulance had actual doors and I would have preferred more printed tiles rather than all the stickers (especially for the age group that this set targets). Otherwise though, it's a great set. You get five minifigures - plus plenty of accessories. The two main vehicles fit right in with similar vehicles from the City line (meaning this set would be a nice complement to a LEGO hospital set or a LEGO fire station set).

Recommendation: meh 4.2 / 5 from 161 reviews

I just put one of these together with my grandson who just turned four. He was able to put many of the little pieces together and loved the resulting police, motorcycle and robber that resulted. I think it is great to build together because it helps him develop dexterity and patience with the result of a fun toy to play with. It comes in three bags with accompanying booklet with easy to follow steps for each build. They get increasingly harder with more parts as you progress from 1 to 3 which is great because they get the idea with the first one which is fast and easy so as they progress to the last one they know what to expect. I look forward to building the other two with him.
