Description

A helicopter built for rescue work

The model represents a heavy rescue helicopter of the kind used by coast guard services for missions over open water. A side-mounted winch with cable allows a rescue stretcher to be lowered or a person to be lifted from the water, while the roomy cabin holds space for crew and anyone brought aboard. Glazing wraps around the cockpit for a clear view downward, a detail that matters for spotting people in the water on real rescue aircraft. Extra fittings such as a searchlight and mounts for rescue gear reinforce the model's working purpose.

Build and mechanics

At 415 pieces across 193 unique parts, this is one of the more detailed vehicles in the Coast Guard theme. The spinning main rotor and moving tail rotor blade are built as their own sections, as is the winch, which extends and retracts independently of the rest of the fuselage. That combination of several working functions keeps the build varied throughout and results in a model with genuine play value rather than a static replica. The cabin doors also open individually, making it easy to reach the interior during play.

Colours and parts

White and blue define the bodywork, matching real coast guard liveries, while black and dark grey pick out mechanical parts such as rotor blades, skids and the undercarriage. That clear colour scheme makes the helicopter instantly readable as a rescue vehicle. This page lists all 193 unique parts, useful for anyone after rotor blades, cockpit glazing or undercarriage pieces for other helicopter builds.

Minifigures and play

The 4 minifigures include coast guard rescuers along with at least one rescued character, so a complete rescue scene can be staged straight out of the box. Combined with other Coast Guard sets, such as boats or a rescue station, the scene grows into a larger operation involving several vehicles. The working winch in particular makes this one of the more play-focused vehicles in the whole City range.
