I'm pretty sure this one will be a big hit with people who custom-build their own floating boats, given that it has a black hull, which is easily one of the most flexible colors for boat hulls. I can easily see people try to make a modern variant of 4010 Police Rescue Boat from 1987 or 4012 Wave Cops from 1996 using this hull. Or 4002 Riptide Racer from 1991. Other really easy to see uses include a pilot boat. Even the design of the superstructure is neutral enough that it could be color swapped to blue or white and not look weird, unlike some of the previous fire boats we've seen. Big thanks to Lego for choosing to go with a black hull, and to Jang for the review.

Glad to see the 3-tile shooter return! Was worried it was gone for good when it didn't appear last year, and given how it was barely used ... 11 sets over the course of 3 years. It just adds variety, I think. Might get this set just to get myself one of those.

It's cute! Like a miniature version of 7906 which I remember getting from Woolworth's in the UK as a small kid.

[Zenlore]

Wow, that’s pretty nice!
I love the FLUDD-style firefighting equipment! That’s a genius idea!

This boat is absolutely beautifully. Great review! Ive been watching your videos ny whole life.

[DavidDost]

the green raft-piece in yellow was a staple in my lego set back in the day :)

[migatron]

Nice! I'll be looking out for this set. I love the little hoverpack build. Nice use of parts

[Benjamin]

I like the design of that fire boat. It reminds me of some fire and police boats from classic town.

[pingucraft]

Getting some "Stormworks: build and rescue" vibes from that fireboat. Very cool!

JANG what are your thoughts about using stickers on float-in-water sets? Do they lose grip because of the water?

[seanlavoie]

Wow
Pretty impressive price. Boats like that always seemed expensive back in the day (though many a comparable sized one may have been responsible even back then).

[robcarey]

Thank you for pumping out the content, JANG!

I have this set but whenever I put it in the bathtub water fills up in the back of it rlly fast

[empatheticrambo]

I have to be honest, I love the life jackets!!

[Vadahann]

20€ for a good sized boat and a dingy, that's quite cheap and it makes it twice that Lego surprised me in a good way with their pricing on that wave.
I really like the jetpack thingy. Thought it was some sort of drone at first but jetpack is even better.
The boat is nice though I'm not the biggest fan of the black hull for a fire boat.
And is it me or the printing on the firefighters minifigs are a bit too light/faded?

[dirkbeekhuis]

As a volunteer firefighter i dont like the jetpack, i think its too u real for now. I absolute love the boat itself and cant wait to add it to my lego collection

[Brick-Life]

Haven't seen one of these boat pieces in years!

[Mr.AtheTriggerGalleon]

I definitely want this set, Thanks for the review, Jang!

[marcellosilva]

Wait, Firemen in Lego City now have jetpacks? Is there something I missed?

Wasn't expecting a Burning Rangers prequel in my Lego, that's for sure.

[BradleyJSimmons]

Hasn’t seen this before, but I quite like it
