Description

Building the station

374 pieces make up a compact outpost with room for equipment and a small vehicle, in keeping with City's focus on functional, play-friendly models. The 163 distinct elements are spread across the building structure, research-equipment details and smaller accessories, so new sections keep appearing throughout the build. The set works well as a single build session but splits just as easily into a few shorter sittings, such as the building first, then the equipment and vehicle. For a City set of this size, the level of equipment detail is fairly high.

Classic Arctic colours

Light bluish grey and dark bluish grey form the station's structural base, evoking ice, snow and rugged equipment, while bold orange runs through safety gear, clothing and vehicle parts for contrast. Black rounds out the palette in details and functional pieces. This combination is characteristic of the Arctic sub-theme within LEGO® City and makes sets like this one instantly recognisable. Displayed alongside other Arctic sets, the shared palette ties the models together even when they represent different functions.

Team and equipment

Three minifigures come with the set, forming a small field research team. Together with the station and its accessories, they support scenes such as taking samples, servicing equipment or the arrival of a supply vehicle. The combination of base and crew makes the set interesting for open-ended play around research and exploration, not just for the build itself. Three figures also allow small group scenes, such as two researchers working outside while a third keeps the station running.

The parts list in detail

With 163 different elements, the set offers a solid basis for extending or repairing other models. The full parts list on this page shows every element with its colour and quantity, making it easy to look up a specific piece – whether to replace something lost or to check what might suit an Arctic-themed project of your own. The grey and black structural pieces in particular are versatile enough to reuse in technical or vehicle builds well outside the Arctic sub-theme.
