Description

Research out in the cold

Set 6520-1 belongs to the Town / Arctic theme and shows a mobile base for missions in icy regions. It came out in 2000 and contains 219 pieces and two minifigures. That is enough to act out a small expedition with a team and a vehicle on the move. If you like adventure-themed sets, this is a quieter variation: less action, more atmosphere made of ice, equipment and technology, which sits nicely on a shelf.

Lots of variety in a small box

The 219 pieces are spread over 96 different part types, which is a very high share. That means hardly any element appears often, and the build consists of many distinct specialised parts. It is therefore worth consulting the parts list if you buy a used copy, since even one missing piece stands out. The dominant colours of black, white, light grey and blue suit the polar theme and give the model a cool, technical feel.

Two figures, one vehicle, many routes

Two minifigures are just right for a small crew on an expedition. The outpost can stand as a station on the ice or travel as a vehicle, and you are free to design the scene yourself. The set works both for play and for display next to other Arctic sets. For children the model offers plenty of room for free invention without being overwhelming in size or taking up too much space.

Making the most of the parts

With “What can I build?” you can check which further sets you could make from these parts and your own collection. The high variety of 96 types makes this set a good donor, since specialised parts are rarely cheap to replace. Even if you intend to keep the model as it is, you can plan which pieces to borrow for your own rebuilds, and the parts list doubles as a guide if you ever need to reconstruct it.
