Description

Firefighting with a special mission

Airport fire trucks rank among the most powerful firefighting vehicles in existence, since in an emergency they need to deliver large volumes of extinguishing agent onto a burning aircraft within a very short time. These vehicles differ visibly and technically from city fire engines, usually featuring a more rugged build, large wheels for uneven runway terrain and bold warning colours. Within the City range, this specialised vehicle adds to the existing airport and fire brigade sets with a dedicated variant. For children interested in unusual emergency vehicles beyond classic police or fire trucks, the set offers a fresh motif.

691 pieces for a rugged vehicle

With 691 pieces and 247 distinct parts, the share of specialised elements sits well above many simpler vehicle sets, pointing to detailed features such as water cannons, large tyres or moving parts. The colours black, red, dark bluish grey and light bluish grey give the model a bold, highly visible look, matching the safety-driven colour choices of real emergency vehicles. That material variety keeps the build varied, since the massive bodywork and the finer mechanical details are built in clearly different ways. The result is a vehicle that captures the ruggedness of the real original convincingly.

Four minifigures for the firefighting mission

Four minifigures come with the set, enabling classic firefighting play scenes, such as a coordinated response with several firefighters working together at once. That makes the set particularly play-friendly compared with display-only models, appealing to children who enjoy acting out dramatic rescue scenes. The exact figures included are detailed in the parts list on this page. For parallel play with several children, the set provides enough characters to go around.

For fans of emergency vehicles

At 691 pieces, the set sits in the mid-size range of the City line, offering enough substance for a proper building session without becoming overwhelming. The parts list on this page details all 247 distinct parts along with their colours, useful for anyone looking to combine the set with other airport or fire brigade sets.
