Recommendation: meh 4.7 / 5 from 65 reviews

Very poorly designed. The bottom of the police station is in 3 pieces and it doesn't have enough pieces to hold it together. When we tried to move it,part of the bottom fell off and then other pieces fell off. My grandson was crying because all his work fell apart. I finally fixed the police station but it still isn't sturdy. It's terrible that Legos that my grandson loves should make an inferior item. Especially when your dealing with children. I have bought my grandson dozens of Legos and this is the first time we had a problem. I will not buy any of the bigger Legos in the future. I don't mind spending the money but now I am not sure if the larger Legos will have the same poor design.

Recommendation: meh 4.67 / 5 from 12 reviews

When I first got a look at the new mountain police online I wasn't convinced, however my son absolutely loved the characters and fun look, and my wife absolutely had to get log man. This set has a lot of cool surprises making it a great build with others, it also boasts some pieces for the collection. Pros: Nothing repetitive to build and the set always had another layer to construct which my son loves. You get some awesome Minifigures and cool color bricks. Last but not least you have many hours in play value with all the scenes to reanact and stories to tell. Cons: As with all City sets the price always seems out of proportion, although with most City you do end up with a good amount of cool pieces. Net launcher is still a mystery to me, and I wish we could have built another cool off road bad guy truck instead of a helicopter, well that is what my son said. Verdict: A great addition to the Police line, and once you have the pieces on the table the value really shows. And log man!!!

Recommendation: no 78 / 100 by Tom

While I do like the Mountain Police Headquarters, there are still details that I would have done differently. This set is also a bit on the expensive side in terms of the cost of bricks and the cost of the build time. On the plus side, the Minifigures are really great, you get a lot of accessories, and you get a mountain lion. There is a lot of re-usability with the bricks in this kit too for the MOC enthusiasts out there.
