7245-1: Prisoner Transport

Take the prisoner to jail!

There's no escape from the prisoner transport! Once the police officer captures the crook, he puts him behind bars in this heavily armored van and takes him to jail. LEGO City is safe once more! Open the back of the van to put the prisoner inside. Includes police officer & crook.

Prisoner Transport

Another Great Addition to the Police Range…

Posted by LegoCoastalPatrol in United Kingdom on 26 October 2009

Finally, it came back into stock at Argos so I reserved one online and collected it from the local store the day after! I had been looking for this set for quite a while and I am pleased to finally have it as part of the collection.

The set is supplied with two minifigs; a police officer and a criminal with a mischievous grin! The only accessory provided is a small loudhailer. The build was nice and simple; the chassis is a one piece plate on which the rest of the van is built. The colour scheme is uniform white with grey wheel arches and trim. The small cab seats just one minifig (the police officer, unless something has gone horribly wrong and the criminal gets in there!). This area is very simple and features just one yellow seat, steering wheel but no doors! There is an observation window from the cab into the cell; there are also colour coordinated lockers on either side of the vehicle. The cell is quite large (for the one supplied minifig) and contains nothing! I guess if they’ve done wrong they are denied any comfort at all. Grey doors and barred windows complete the cell nicely. The roof of the cell is fully removable so that access can be gained and this area is decorated with blue lights, air-horns, GPS dish and a searchlight. The set also features graphics which need to be applied, I don’t mind these as my sets are placed on display, but the graphics do cover more than one brick, therefore limiting deconstruction and rebuilding.

In summary, the set looks great, a few issues could have been addressed but it looks excellent when displayed with the other sets from this line.

Pretty cool...but whats with the color?!

Posted by brickfilmer101 in United States on 14 April 2009

This is a pretty cool van. I own it, and I use in movies I make, but the color effect is not very cool. I really think the bottomblue headlights should go and be replaced with a license plate. So....I would rate this a 4 stars.

The Robber Stole Some Gold And Is Hiding It In His Mouth

Posted by pod120 in Australia on 10 February 2009

This was my second City Police set. I got it as a holiday present in July 2006 from my Dad along with the Police Car. I like that it has a clear window dividing the driver's seat and the robber compartment. This is a great set to add into any part of a Lego City adventure.

Pros
-Includes great amount of minifigs for a 20 dollar AUD set
-Robber's gold tooth is metallic
-Includes search light on top of vehicle
-Robber compartment has a lot of room
-Robber compartment has two jail bar windows
-Grey wheels are a good addition
-Includes Robber's beanie

Cons
-Set has stickers
-Slightly overpriced

Augh! What's with the stickers???

Posted by Lmcfalcon12 in United States on 08 December 2008

Its a great set overall. Cool that the 2 back doors open and that you can fit like 2 or 3 guys in the back. I also like the storage compartments on the sides of the truck.

My only gripe...and its a big one, is sticker placement. The front police sticker on the hood of the car overlaps 2 seperate pieces. This is not the first set like this where if 2 pieces were unclipped, the sticker would rip. Mine did not, but they need to work on piece picking and sticker positions. I don't understand why the front of the truck couldn't have been one sloping 2x6 piece, but that was their choice to pick the two 2x3s. Careful with your stickers and this is a nice set.
