Five minifigs, a fire truck, and a modular-friendly station for $70 — City sets rarely pack this much into one box without cutting corners.
Is the price fair?A+$70 for this much station and this many figs is a fair deal, full stop.
Will you love it?BA well-rounded City anchor that covers display, play, and layout all at once.
Holds its value?C-Aftermarket on City sets is rough, and this one won't be the exception.
The Full Take
The 2022 Fire Station hits a sweet spot that most City sets miss: it looks like a real building, plays like a real set, and costs like LEGO® still wanted you to buy it. Five minifigs is a strong crew for a $70 box, and the modular design means it slots naturally into a City layout without fighting for space. The fire truck is chunky and satisfying, not an afterthought. Builders won't find anything to write home about technique-wise, but the build is solid and the parts are useful. Kids get doors that open, a garage bay, a pole — all the hits. The one caveat: once this retires, don't expect the aftermarket to reward patience. Buy it because it's a great set, not because it's a future windfall.
