LEGO®LEGO Downtown Fire Brigade

fire truck

I got this and it feels like I bought something amazing its so fun to play with it's fun to build and break and build again.

Great set for the money

This set was great with details. This set provided a nice building experience as well.

Fun build and play

I built this with my daughter over a few days here and there. Overall took maybe 6 hours to build it (let her do most of it). Super fun to play with together lots of things to do with the set. She loves the firetruck.

Worth it

My kids 5&10 are half way done building and already Loving it. They really like the fire truck with the water pump part, water robot that shoots water. I love that there is more then one piece that does something special (so less arguing) worth the money so much fun

Value for money.

I haven't built built a Lego set in over 20 years and this brought back great memories for me. The value for money here is outstanding. 7 instruction booklets covering 9 bags of Lego each able to be built independently was a very welcome surprise. The following is what each manual/pack builds: Bag 1 / Manual 1: Helicopter & motorbike. Bag 2 / Manual 2: Fire Truck Cab. Bag 3 / Manual 3: Fire Truck Trailer Part 1. Bag 4 / Manual 4: Fire Truck Trailer Part 2. Bag 5 / Manual 5: Fire Fighting Robot and Construction site with Port-a-loo. Bags 6,7,8 / Manual 6: Abandoned Building. Bag 9 / Manual 7: Crane. The level of detail from the Robot and Helicopter shooting "water" and the ladder have a fire hose that could also shoot "water" were some very nice touches. Plenty of hours of fun could be had with this build. Highly Recommended

Very nice set and the new flashing with sound brick sweet but just a shame the firefighters and the cops sound alike

Large Kit; Detailed

This is a large detailed kit with multiple vehicle a fire building and a crane. Takes a bit of time to assemble; but overall not too difficult. The scale of some items could be adjusted and the theme of an abandoned building could be developed more. I would like to see them develop more fire related kits and add to the realism...most apparatus is over simplified...

Finally a Building on Fire!

From my standpoint this is probably one of my favorite Lego City Fire sets to date. We get a massive ladder trunk, a fire ground drone and a helicopter PLUS a construction site containing an entire 3 story building that is one fire. Plus all of the playable items (picking up the port-o-potty with the crane and plenty of flames to be knocked down) that when combined with another set with construction equipment will go quite nicely. Pros: - High Playability, lots of different pieces that move and can be used for other stories - Has a building which Lego city is short on - Light and sound bar for the massive ladder truck Cons: - Wish there had been at least one more minifig, another construction worker or some way to make a crane operator - Not the biggest fan of the new stud shooters - wish the building was a little deeper, but good size for the playability factor
