The Lego line of building toys has a tradition of emphasising the crisis services in their City and Town range, with singular focus on Fire and Police. Their latest incarnation of the superior Fire middle point is the eleventh incarnation of a firefighter's building since the first set in 1978. The latest few versions have been criticised by hardcore fans for being too uncomplicated and this latest set seems to address at least some of those criticisms.
At 662 pieces and with the main building measuring 17" (43cm) long and over 9" (22cm) tall it is not a large set but to give Lego credit, the fire stations have never been big in this area. They are intended to be very playable for young builders and in this respect Lego has delivered an additional one winner.

The set comes with four mini figures, the fire middle point building, a fire chief's car and a fire engine. Accessories comprise fire axes, extinguishers, computers, walkie talkies, a recycling bin, hoses, shovels, brooms, ladders and many more. Inside the middle point there are two garages, a staff area including a coffee machine, a sleeping quarters and even a fire pole.
The fire middle point houses both vehicles cleanly, though there is not much room left over when the fire engine squeezes through. The fire engine is pretty cool and instead of opportunity doors on the side the roof lifts up on a hinge to seat two figures inside. The fire car is small and practical with opportunity doors at the side and back for storing tool like the recovery net which is a new feature. So as you can see, the emphasis here is on playability.
Instructions are clear and bags are numbered for an easier build and the set comes with stickers which probably won't bother young fans. Farranging a great set for a child wanting to grow their established city town or for the young fire fan who you want to introduce to Lego.
