Seven minifigs in a City police set is the kind of lineup that makes a $99 tag feel like a negotiation you won. The station itself delivers the full package — lockup, garage, courtyard — without leaving half the scene to your imagination.
Is the price fair?A+$99 for this much station and this many minifigs is a flat-out win.
Will you love it?B-A full-featured police precinct that earns a permanent spot in any City layout.
Holds its value?C-Retirement didn't move the needle — this one's a keeper, not a flipper.
The Full Take
The 2017 Police Station is one of those City sets that actually commits to the bit. Seven minifigs means you've got a full precinct worth of characters without raiding other sets, and the building itself spans enough real estate to feel like a proper civic landmark on a shelf. At $99.99 for 894 pieces, LEGO® left money on the table — in your favor. The build covers a lot of ground: working jail cell, vehicle bay, detailed interior floors that reward the patient builder. It won't knock your socks off with experimental techniques, but the finished result has real presence. The one thing it won't do is make you money — retirement appreciation on this one is flat, so buy it because you want it, not because you expect a payday later.
