Four minifigs for $49.99 is a deal that City rarely serves up this cleanly — beach cops, a fire rescue, and enough playability to justify every dollar.
Is the price fair?A+One of City's better deals in recent memory — four figs, a full scene, under fifty bucks.
Will you love it?BCohesive beach emergency theme with solid playability, even if the build won't push anyone's skills.
Holds its value?C-Appreciation near zero — this one's for playing with, not warehousing.
The Full Take
The seaside setting does a lot of heavy lifting here — water, sand, and emergency vehicles all in one box is a combo kids want to live in. Four minifigs at this price point is the kind of math City almost never does in your favor. The build itself won't challenge a seasoned collector, but it's cohesive: the scenes connect, the vehicles fit the setting, and nothing feels thrown in as filler. Shelf presence is modest — this is a play set wearing a display set's clothing at best. Where it stumbles is the long game: once it retires it just kind of sits there, and flippers won't find much upside. Buy it for the fun it delivers right now, not the box it'll become later.
