Description

A job for Jack Stone

The 4 Juniors range was made for younger children who already build but are not ready for very large models. Jack Stone was the lead character, a hero in rescue and emergency scenes. Bank Breakout supplies the backdrop: a robbery that has to be stopped. At 68 pieces the model goes together quickly, and play begins straight afterwards, with a chase, an arrest or a successfully prevented theft. Anyone who would rather invent their own story has plenty of material in the bank, the vault and the getaway car.

Dark colours, clear roles

Black, white, light grey and green set the tone. Black stands for the robbers and their getaway vehicle, light grey and white for the bank and the road, and green adds small accents. Even younger children can see at once who belongs to which side. This simple colour logic was one of the strengths of the 4 Juniors line, which aimed to make play scenes understandable without long explanations, and it still works today.

Thirty-eight shapes in a small set

Of the 68 pieces, 38 are different shapes. That is a strikingly high share for a small set and implies many specialised elements, such as bodywork parts, components for the bank front and accessories for the loot. The build has hardly any idle moments, since each step brings something new. Look through the parts list below and you will spot some pieces that are scarce today and fit well into other vehicles or buildings. Builders who like their own designs get more choice than the piece count first suggests.

Playing without figures

No minifigures are included, so the scene depends on whatever characters children add from their own collection. That opens the set up to mixing with police and city sets. With “What can I build?” you can see which other models come out of your parts, and the parts list helps you complete a second-hand set if small pieces are missing. You can also turn the gap into an advantage: mix in other sets and even without figures you get lively scenes with patrol cars and passers-by.
