Description

Patrol duty in black and white

This van belongs to the small vehicle sets that LEGO® put out for its town range in 1981. At 81 pieces it goes together quickly, yet the result is instantly recognisable as a police vehicle. A single minifigure either drives it or stands beside it as the officer on duty, whichever the game calls for. If you are putting together a little town from early sets, it makes a fitting companion to the ambulance and other emergency vehicles of the period.

See-through parts that catch the eye

Besides black and white, the transparent shades stand out: trans-dark blue and trans-yellow appear among the main colours. In the eighties, clear parts like these were typical of emergency vehicles, supplying the flashing light and the windows. Because translucent pieces are often missing or scratched in second-hand sets, it is worth a careful look at the parts list on this page. It tells you which colours and how many of each should be there when the set is complete.

Thirty-four different parts in 81

The number of distinct parts, 34, is high for a set this size, so a good share of those 81 pieces are one-offs. That suggests a carefully designed vehicle, with body, windows and roof made from dedicated elements. Anyone restoring the set should work through the list line by line. On Bricoria you can see every part number with its colour and quantity, and search precisely for whatever is still missing from your copy.

To play with and to rebuild

Whether it sits on a shelf as a collectable or rolls across the floor as a toy, the van does both jobs well. If you would rather put the bricks into new projects, “What can I build?” compares your collection with the parts lists and shows which sets you could make. The mix of black, white and clear pieces is useful in many other vehicles, so even one small set like this is worth keeping in your collection.
