The Full Take
Twenty-eight pieces shouldn't be enough to make something worth talking about, but the jetboat here has a clean silhouette and the kind of bright, purposeful color-blocking that reads well even at small scale. This is a 2024 City polybag, which means it's designed to live near a checkout lane and convince someone to toss it in the cart — and on that mission it succeeds. The minifig is solid, the boat is recognizable, and nothing feels cheap or half-finished. At full MSRP it's a little steep for the part count, which is the one honest knock against it. But as a desk toy, a stocking stuffer, or a way to hand a kid something new on a Tuesday afternoon, it clears the bar without much fuss. Not every set needs to be a statement — sometimes a small boat and a cop is exactly the right thing.
