A $10 City police car that's mostly just... a police car. The love is real for what it is, but the price-to-set ratio stings at this scale.
The parts alone are worth about 68% of the street price — the basis for this F price read.
OverpricedYou're paying well above the parts' value — $10 of parts for a $14 price.
The Police Patrol Car is the kind of set that exists because City needs entry points — and this one does its job without embarrassing itself. The build is quick, the car reads clearly as a cop cruiser, and the single minifig is clean enough. But $9.99 for 92 pieces at this scale is a tough sell when comparable sets in the same theme offer so much more. Kids who just want a patrol car to chase their other City vehicles around? Totally fine. Anyone else doing the math in their head? The grade tells the story. It's a C+ because it works, not because it impresses.
This grade blends these community reviews with set facts and market pricing, and updates as new reviews come in.
