LEGO set 60012, Coast Guard 4 x 4, depicts a coast guard vehicle within the City theme. Released in 2013 under the Coast Guard subtheme, it contains 128 pieces and focuses on land based support for coastal rescue scenes.
Coast Guard 4 x 4 sits within the Coast Guard branch of LEGO City, a setting built around rescue services and activity near the water. The model represents a coast guard four wheel drive vehicle, giving the subtheme a land based response unit for shoreline scenarios.
