Another addition to LEGO's excellent World City series sees a mini cops-and-robbers affair with the Armoured Car set. Nice and simple (it shouldn't take any more than an hour to put together) the man model here is a nicely solid armoured truck complete with swing-away sides to allow access to the interior and two safes, which hold the supplied array of LEGO gold bullion bricks, cash and gems. The secondary model is a neat two-tone motor-trike with an array of hand tools that can be fixed to the back and a winch for pulling open the hinged sides of the bullion truck. The mini-figs are up to LEGO's usual high standards--the security man even has a rather spiffy bullet-proof vest, though whether it would stand a direct assault from the grinning robber's power saw and angle grinder is a question that is open to debate. Building further on the success of World City, this set provides a small portion of entertainment for any LEGO fan and looks great when married up with the Police HQ and surveillance truck sets. --Chris Russell
