Seven minifigs in a City set at this price is the kind of headcount that makes you do a double-take at the box. Mountain Police Headquarters delivers a full cast, solid terrain, and an A- score that holds up.
Is the price fair?A+Seven minifigs and a mountain terrain build for under ninety dollars — that math was very kind at launch.
Will you love it?B-Big enough to be a centerpiece, playful enough to actually get used — City Police done right.
Holds its value?C-The secondary market has been unkind; this one collects dust in price trackers, not gains.
The Full Take
Mountain Police Headquarters is one of those City sets that punches above its weight by nailing the fundamentals: a sprawling mountain terrain build, enough play features to keep a kid busy, and seven minifigs that make the scene feel alive. The rocky cliff construction gives builders something meatier than a flat-footprint police station, with layered elevations and a helicopter pad that earns its place on the layout. At $89.99 this was a strong value at launch — 663 pieces with strong minifig density and a theme kids reliably love. Display-wise it reads as a complete diorama rather than a box-shaped building, which is a genuine differentiator in the City lineup. The one honest caveat: do not buy this expecting it to grow in value — the secondary market has been cold, and the F on appreciation says everything. Buy it to build it, play it, or display it, and you'll walk away satisfied.
