Description

A station on the seabed

The name says it all: this is a refuge for divers deep down at the reef. The set builds an underwater station in which the five minifigures can work, store equipment and rest. That makes it first and foremost a play set, well suited to stories about research, salvage and adventure. At 446 pieces it can be built in an afternoon and stays sturdy enough afterwards to be played with, which is not true of every set from this period of the theme.

White, black, blue and yellow

White, black, blue and yellow appear most often. White and black give the station a technical look, blue recalls water, and yellow adds accents on equipment and figures. The parts list on this page names 141 different parts, a high share for 446 bricks. From that you can conclude that many specialist shapes such as windows, connectors and accessories are included. If you enjoy sorting, you will find plenty here that is useful later for your own rebuilds.

Playing within Town

The Deep Reef Refuge combines well with other sets from the divers range. A ship on the surface and a station on the bottom together make up a whole expedition scene, with the figures shuttling between the two places. Even if this is the only set you own, there is a lot to tell, because the station offers several rooms and tools. That also makes the model interesting for children who prefer to invent stories rather than follow instructions.

Using the parts again

If you decide to rebuild the station at some point, the “What can I build?” tool on this page can help. It shows which models the parts allow, including together with the rest of your collection. The parts list also reveals which parts occur several times. That lets you judge whether the bricks are enough for a bigger project or whether you should add other sets to extend walls, windows or platforms.
