Description

A helicopter built for pursuit

At the centre of 60046 is a police helicopter with a spinning rotor, built for chases and aerial surveillance, a recurring idea across the LEGO® City police range. With 528 pieces, the model has enough scope for a cockpit that fits figures along with extra details such as a searchlight or equipment, without ranking among the largest vehicle sets in the theme. The set typically also includes a smaller ground vehicle or getaway car for the opposing side, rounding out the mission scene.

Five minifigures, police and opponents

With 5 minifigures, 60046 supplies both police officers and at least one criminal figure, making it possible to act out a chase scene straight away without buying additional sets. This mix of law enforcement and opposing figures is typical of City police sets and offers more play variety than vehicle-only sets without an opponent. The exact gear and colour combinations worn by each figure, from uniforms to prison-style clothing, are shown in detail on the parts list on this page.

Classic police colours

The dark grey, black, light grey and white colour scheme matches the long-established police livery of the LEGO® City range, making it easy to combine with other police sets. At 194 unique elements across 528 pieces, the set has above-average part variety for its size, visible in details such as rotor blades, undercarriage parts and small cockpit fittings. For collectors expanding an existing police fleet, the vehicle fits in seamlessly by colour.

Who this set suits

60046 appeals to fans of LEGO® City police sets as well as anyone after a vehicle combining air and ground components in one box. The mix of helicopter, secondary vehicle and several figures offers more play options than a single vehicle set on its own. With 528 pieces and 5 minifigures, the scope sits in the mid-range, making the set suited both to a quick build session and to extended play afterwards.
