Four minifigs in a $40 City set is a stacked roster, and this one comes with a shark — the build earns its summer-shelf spot without asking much of your wallet.
Is the price fair?A+Four figs, a shark, and a jet ski for forty bucks — City pricing done right.
Will you love it?BSunny and self-contained, but not deep enough to rate.
Holds its value?C-This one's a spender, not a keeper — appreciation is essentially flat.
The Full Take
Beach Lifeguard Station is a set that knows exactly what it is: a cheerful, sunny slice of City life that doesn't overreach. Four minifigs at this price point is a strong hand, and the shark and jet ski give kids an immediate story to play out. The build itself is compact but complete — the tower reads as a real structure rather than a token accessory. It's not going to challenge a seasoned builder, but it fills a scene beautifully without demanding a ton of shelf real estate. At $39.99 this sits comfortably in the 'easy yes' zone for a gift or a casual addition to a City layout. The flip side: don't hold it expecting a payday — this one is built to be played with, not banked.
