LEGO City set 60142, Money Transporter, depicts a cash transport scene within the Police branch of City. Released in 2017, it contains 138 pieces and presents a compact urban police situation with a security vehicle and 2 minifigures.
Money Transporter sits in the City theme, under Police. Its subject is a cash transport, a familiar urban setup for stories involving patrols, theft and response. The model can be placed beside a police station, along a street layout or among other City service vehicles.
The build is centred on the vehicle and the opposing roles of the characters.
It is suited to role play, a compact City display or collecting smaller Police sets. Compared with larger buildings in the same theme, it works as a supporting vehicle that adds a specific incident to an urban scene without taking over the layout.
