Description

A compact helicopter on call

At 205 pieces, this is one of the smaller models in the city line. It shows a helicopter built for emergency work, the kind you see at accidents and medical incidents. It builds in a single sitting without a long list of stages, which makes it approachable for younger builders too. The two minifigures act as the crew, so you can act out a call-out: pick up a patient, fly to the hospital, land on the rooftop pad and hand over to the doctors.

Yellow, black and grey

The palette leans on black and yellow, with dark bluish grey and light bluish grey as support. Yellow makes the helicopter stand out, much as it does on real rescue vehicles. The grey parts cover the landing gear, mechanics and rotor area. The part mix is worth noting: 89 different parts among just 205 pieces means plenty of special shapes and little repetition. Rotor blades, fairings and small fittings can therefore be handy for other aircraft projects of your own.

Play it or display it

This set dates from a time when city themes were still firmly aimed at play. The helicopter works well alongside other rescue sets from the same range, such as an ambulance or fire engine. As a shelf piece it is small enough not to need much room, and the yellow keeps it lively. If you buy a used copy, pay particular attention to the rotor and the stickers, because well-played examples often show wear in exactly those places and can be hard to restore.

Check the parts, keep building

The full parts list on this page helps you verify that a second-hand copy is complete or order missing pieces precisely. With the “What can I build?” tool you can also see which other models your existing bricks would allow. The wide variety of parts makes the helicopter a good starting point for rebuilds, for example a cargo helicopter or a version in different colours, designed entirely to your own taste and using only the bricks you already own.
