The Full Take
Mountain Fugitives is the kind of small City set that knows exactly what it is: a quick, inexpensive scene with just enough story to get kids moving. Four minifigs at this price point is a genuine win — you're getting criminals, a cop, and a helicopter pilot crammed into a $9.99 box. The build itself is thin, a rocky outcrop and a rope bridge that goes up fast and comes down faster in a child's hands. Display collectors and hardcore builders won't find much here, but that's not who this set is for. As a grab-and-go gift or a parts top-up, it punches at or above its weight. The value grade is the headline; everything else is secondary.
