My son enjoyed building and playing with the Lego City Fire Station. We will purchase more Lego City sets in the future.
Better and worse than they used to be July 16, 2010

As a child, Legos were my favorite toy. Until my teenage years, I'd spend hours building, destroying, rebuilding and creating with the magical blocks. So it was only natural that I'd introduce my son to them. Today's Legos are much more sophisticated than they were 20 years ago. This is both good and bad; the realism and detail are fantastic, however with so many specialized parts, it is much more challenging to construct original designs using these kits. Where the old packages used to show lots of ideas for other things you could build in addition to the "official" design, today's boxes now only show multiple angles of the "official" design.
In regard to this set, I agree with the reviewer who stated that it feels a little skimpy for the money. The large ladder truck's rear end hangs out of the garage bay. The portion of the model with the bunk beds and telephone (though it looks very cool from the outside) is so small that it is almost pointless. A dad holding a Lego figure can barely fit his fingers in there to move it around. But those are an adult's concerns. My kid absolutely loves this thing, and has been fascinated with it since the moment we brought it home.

My son saved his money and recently bought this item. We were a little disappointed in the size. It seems small for the price, especially compared to the Lego City Police Station which he received for Christmas. The fire station also does not seem to want to hold together. He has had to rebuild it several times during play because pieces fell off. He has not had this problem with the police station. He has enjoyed playing with it, but I believe the money could be better spent on another Lego City item.
 Amazing Idea Bad Execution August 8, 2010

Bought this for my 6 yearold. We had great fun putting it together and the modular aspect was nice as we put each building and car together at a different time. However, this is when the trouble started. When it was time to put the modules together everything broke apart. Since then I have become an expert at putting this together. About once every week the toy falls apart and its to hard for my 6 yearold to put it back together without starting from scratch. If you are going to build this once and put it on the shelf its 5 stars. If you want to play with it when you are done building it I can only give it 2 stars. When I has a kid the Legos did not fall apart when you touched them. For the cost of this its could stick together a much better so the kids could play with them when they are done building what is a very cool set.
