Lego City - Police Sets

Lego City Police Station

Amazon Price: $250.00 (as of 06/01/2012)

As one of the Amazon reviewers said "....This is by far my son's favorite lego gift ever. It is quite a complete little world, with people, vehicles (including a helicopter), and a really cool police station.. .." - really what else can you say, it does produce a complete little world and I'm also willing to bet that he's not the only boy who has found this to be their favorite set!

From the Police Station you can orchestrate a Lego City police chase, including using your Police helicopter, bring the crooks back to jail before relaxing or you could even orchestrate a jail break out - will the police realize that the criminals are escaping? Will the escape be foiled or will their be a manhunt on the streets of Lego City? Buy this set for your child and see what scenarios they can come up with to stimulate their imagination.

LEGO City Police Headquarters

Amazon Price: $179.99 (as of 06/01/2012)

The Police Headquarters has interrogations rooms, prison cells, a coffee machine and water cooler (you need something to drink when eating donuts!) for the break roomand even some little surprises like a trick wall to help the prisoners escape.

As always with Lego sets there are clear instructions to help you build the Headquarters and from there the play is entirely up to the imaginative minds of the children playing which will probably rival anything Hollywood could come up with!

LEGO City Police Command Center 7743

Amazon Price: $84.00 (as of 06/01/2012)

"I think this is one of the best lego sets I've ever gotten!!!" - Yet another happy Amazon reviewer!

The Police Command Center really does encourage imaginative play as most police departments seem to have a mobile unit these days and they feature in the media.........it's really interesting to watch and listen to your children playing with this set as their 'take' on the use of the Police Command Center can be a little different to what you'd expect!

LEGO City Police Helicopter 7741

Amazon Price: $9.35 (as of 06/01/2012)

The helicopter has a single seat cockpit and comes complete with the police officer pilot. There are also handcuffs and binoculars in the set and the helicopter itself is equipped with two cargo containers, a side-mounted video camera and a search light - ideal for following criminals at night when on a police chase!

Lego City Police Boat 30-Piece Construction Toy #30002

Amazon Price: $9.95 (as of 06/01/2012)

This lego set is a 30 piece one and includes a police officer to act as boat skipper.

LEGO City Police Pontoon Plane

Amazon Price: $105.95 (as of 06/01/2012)

LEGO City Police Car (7236)

Amazon Price: $16.00 (as of 06/01/2012)

One problem with this particular Lego Set is that although it contains a walkie talkie there's not space for one in the car. There are also no handcuffs or weapons, but you are able to purchase these seperately which doesn't make it so bad.

LEGO Police Dog Unit 7285

Amazon Price: $14.90 (as of 06/01/2012)

I absolutely love that fact that there is a K9 unit available in Lego as my daughter loves watching shows about training police dogs, customs dogs etc, this set is right up there in her books and it's also another opportunity for imagination play if the dog is an officer in training - now that's fun to watch children re-enact!

LEGO Police Prisoner Transport 7286

Amazon Price: $11.50 (as of 06/01/2012)

The transport van opens up at the back to allow you to put the prisoner inside before driving him to his destination. The opportunities for imaginative play are (again) limitless - the robber tries to make his escape on the back of a motorcycle before crashing into the road block and being caught by the police officer.

Of course if you've got some of the other police sets it leads to even more fun as you introduce the motorcycle and it's rider to the radar gun - oh no they're speeding! Of the dog squad catches the criminal before he makes it to his motorcycle........oh the fun just never stops in Lego City!

LEGO City Police Motorcycle 7235

Amazon Price: $5.99 (as of 06/01/2012)

Amazon reviewers certainly didn't seem to be complaining about this Lego set.

"I bought this set because it was cheap and I wanted the figure and motorcycle for my police force....." - This is they key, it's not a complicated build, but it does help to complete a police presence and let's face it most children go through a 'cops and robbers' stage.

"There isn't much to this set, but it's still very, very cool. From the motorcycle's slick design to the minifigure's painted-on shades and cool helmet, this inexpensive set is a key element of the Lego City....." - Another of the same sentiment, what can I add???

Lego City Set #5612 Exclusive Mini Figure Police Officer

Amazon Price: $2.10 (as of 06/01/2012)

This lego set only has 21 pieces, but it great as a starter set for a police presence or (as I said) as an addition to any existing police sets.
