Coast Guard

About Coast Guard

Bases and headquarters

The anchor of any Coast Guard collection is a base, which gives the boats and helicopters somewhere to return to and makes a display feel complete. Coast Guard Head Quarters (60167-1) from 2017 is the largest set in the range with 795 pieces. Earlier, in 2008, Coast Guard Platform (4210-1) offered a 469-piece platform, and Coast Guard Patrol Boat and Tower (7739-1) combined a lookout with a boat in 446 pieces. Coast Guard Patrol (60014-1) from 2013 adds another 450 pieces of boats and equipment.

Helicopters in every generation

Rescue helicopters appear throughout the sub-theme. Coast Guard Helicopter and Life Raft (7738-1) from 2008 has 446 pieces, Heavy-Duty Rescue Helicopter (60166-1) from 2017 has 415, and the 2026 Coast Guard Helicopter (60503-1) reaches 551. Also from 2026, Coast Guard Rescue Boat & Helicopter (60504-1) pairs both vehicles in one 743-piece box.

Building a coastline

Water scenes need space and plenty of blue, so many builders combine Coast Guard with Harbor sets or simple baseplates. Bricoria’s parts lists make it easy to see which hull pieces, rotors and minifigures a set needs, which is handy when older boats turn up without their original box.

Choosing where to start

With 30 sets over almost two decades, Coast Guard is large enough to offer choice but small enough to follow in full. The 2008 wave, with its platform, tower and helicopter, forms a coherent group if you like older sets. Newer releases such as the 2026 helicopter and the combined boat set are easier to find new. For a quick completeness check on any of them, open the set page on Bricoria and compare against the parts list.
