Description

A working harbour scene

The set centres on a terminal with a gantry crane, container stacks and a ship docked alongside the quay. The crane rotates and lifts, containers can be moved between the ship and the dock, and there's enough deck space on the ship for extra cargo. It's built for repeated play rather than static display, giving builders a small but busy harbour that captures how cargo actually moves through a terminal, and the layout stays easy to follow even with all the detail packed in.

An industrial colour scheme

Light bluish grey, black, dark bluish grey and blue make up the bulk of the build, giving the terminal the muted, functional look of a real cargo dock. Grey forms the crane, quay and structural elements, while blue appears on the ship and containers as the main accent. That restrained palette means the set blends easily with other City harbour or industrial builds already on the shelf, without introducing a clashing colour family.

Four minifigures, one busy dock

The four included minifigures cover the usual jobs at a cargo terminal, from operating the crane to handling containers on the quay. That spread supports proper role play: cargo arrives, gets craned across and moves out again, rather than the set just sitting as a display piece. It suits builders who enjoy vehicles and workplace scenes more than pure architecture, and it gives repeated play value well beyond the initial build.

280 distinct parts to reuse

Of the 740 pieces, 280 are unique part types, a high ratio for a set this size. That variety keeps the build interesting section by section, and many pieces, crane elements, window sections and container shapes among them, are useful well beyond this one model. The full parts list on this page breaks down exactly what's included and in what quantity, handy as a reference for future additions or reordering specific bricks.
