Looks more streamlined then the 2019 60213 fire boat, interestingly the "water cannon" can be folded down into a hatch on the deck.
Does not float on water however :)
This particular speedboat design is one of the City sets that’s been remade so many times you can’t even tell which one is which at first glance. Other offenders include the $20 police car chasing crooks set or the police mobile command center.
I loved the storable water cannon mechanic... this was such a great set!
I bought the larger fire boat from this range, but I never did buy this smaller version.
I like how the ocean is on fire on the box art ;-)
I like that vest print
Great set. The foldable cannon was certainly beautiful. The set’s video is worth a watch.
This set is great. I have pretty much all the World City sets and the theme is super underrated.
simple but effective design for the water cannon. and for the boat as a whole really
They should do more brick-built boat hulls like this one in City.
Excuse me, why does it look like the boat is on fire? The smoke is coming out of it!
Also, that's quite a big boat for 8$!
World City may have been short lived but it certainly saved the day for Lego.
This is one of the sets that make me like LEGO CITY again.
Looks more like a fire boat than a firefighter to me.
@Brixpert I think it's a sticker. I know I have two that lost stickers that are from an old fire truck.
