Recommendation: yes 4.9 / 5 from 42 reviews

Overall this set was pretty good. It comes with two cops and two robbers. It also has the Helicopter, semi, a motorcycle, and a dune buggy. The motorcycle is really cool and the dune buggy is alright. The semi looks amazing and the helicopter is really cool to. The bad guys hideout was quite bad in my opinion. All it is a rock that opens up and there's what appears to be two gold veins inside. I'm not really sure the point of this since I don't know what to do with them. It might just be for the bad guys to hide in but use your imagination and you'll think of something I guess. As for the bad guys they have cool uniforms and come with money and a bag to hold it. However the money constantly falls out of the money bags and I just quit using them because of that reason. The cops look great as well and come with handcuffs that fit nicely on the robbers. Overall this was a pretty good set and a great addition if you have other Lego police sets.

Recommendation: meh 4.7 / 5 from 41 reviews

This is another great Lego set. My 7 year old grandson loves following the directions in the plan books and can construct the whole thing by himself. After it is built he has a great deal of fun playing with the model and it's people. He also likes to take them apart and see what else he can make, then rebuild the original later. The family stores all the direction books in a binder and the blocks are sorted by color and stored in tubs, so they can be easily found and intermixed with other sets. Legos are expensive, but one of the best "imagination and learning" toys available. They last forever if you take care of them. We still have sets from the 1980's that our children had that the grandchildren play with at Grandma's house.
