If many parts of Lego City are riddled with crime, it seems that the Ski Resort (opens in new tab) is riddled with injuries.

Above all, though, Lego has really got the rock'n'roll look and feel of this place nailed, and an environment that could easily have missed the mark has turned out a triumph. Inside, everything works together very cleverly, from the gantry crane which slides up and down, forward and back, along the ceiling, to the (removable) jack stand, which allows you to lift any vehicle in the set. The camping trailer is very good too, and while you won’t necessarily expect it to be there, the doghouse (complete with dog, of course) is actually quite brilliant.Īt the centre of the set lies one large building with large sliding door at the front. The breakdown truck with working boom, the classy hot-rod and the rocket-powered motorbike, in particular, masterfully tread that fine line between being very cool, without being over-the-top and silly. There's also some super-fun action features here, including the launcher arm on the garage, which causes the car to come rushing out, and a mechanism that allows you to blow the side of the jail clean off after placing dynamite in the climate control unit on the side.Īs you’ll see from the picture above, the Lego City Tuning Workshop set is more about vehicles than buildings, but to be fair, they are some pretty great vehicles here.

We love that there’s a place for taking criminals' mugshots, complete with a height chart, plus the inclusion of both a water cooler and a coffee maker: if there’s one thing we know from cop dramas, they like their drinks.

Best of all, everything is nicely connected together through a series of catwalks, stairs and doors, allowing plenty of variety in where you place your mini-figures and accessories.

The designers have also squeezed in a lookout tower on top of the garage, and a helipad above the main headquarters. This is not just a single building but essentially three integrated ones: a jail section, a headquarters building and a garage. Crime is a major theme throughout a number of Lego City sets, so it’s not surprising the brand has put extra effort into its Police Station (opens in new tab).
