Description

Air and water in one box

Helicopter and Raft pairs two vehicles that complement each other: a helicopter for the air and a simple raft for the water. The set comes from the harbour side of City and was released in 2008. With 115 pieces and two minifigures it is small enough for a quick build, yet it offers material for several play ideas, from cargo transport at the dock to a rescue in which both vehicles have to work together.

Yellow, black and red

Yellow is the dominant colour, joined by black and red, with dark bluish grey for technical parts. The bold mix looks like a working or transport helicopter that is easy to spot from far away. That is useful for your own rebuilds: yellow and red parts often exist only in small numbers in a collection, and this set supplies a few for building sites, rescue scenes or harbour layouts. They also add a cheerful spot of colour to a mostly grey town.

Sixty different shapes

The variety stands out: among the 115 pieces there are 60 distinct shapes. That is more than half, so many parts appear only once or a few times. For builders who hunt for special elements this is interesting, because the rotor, cabin and raft parts can later serve in other models. The parts list on this page gives shape, colour and quantity and makes targeted look-ups easy when you need one particular part for a different model.

At the harbour and beyond

The set fits other City harbour and rescue sets and slots easily into an existing town. If you record your collection on Bricoria, the “What can I build?” tool shows which additional models are possible with the bricks you own. That helps when you mix parts from several sets and want to know whether they can add up to a larger helicopter or a different kind of boat for your layout, all without needing the old instructions.
