LEGO set 60166, Heavy-Duty Rescue Helicopter, depicts a coastal rescue helicopter in the City theme, within the Coast Guard subtheme. Released in 2017, it contains 415 pieces and includes 4 minifigures for a rescue operation scene.
Heavy-Duty Rescue Helicopter is part of LEGO City Coast Guard, a subtheme focused on civilian rescue work around the coast and at sea. The model centers on a rescue helicopter, supported by coast guard personnel and a person wearing a life vest, giving it a clear role in emergency play scenarios.
The build uses 415 pieces and is organized around the helicopter, rescue equipment and accessories for staging an intervention. The 4 minifigures are a man with a light bluish gray hoodie over a dark red shirt, dark blue legs and yellow life vest, a coast guard member with open sand blue jacket, badge, orange sweater, white helmet with visor and moustache, a coast guard woman in an orange jumpsuit with yellow life vest and dark red hair, and a coast guard woman in an orange jumpsuit with white helmet, diving mask and yellow life vest.
The set suits action play, display in a City coastal layout and collecting within the Coast Guard range. Among sets from the same subtheme, it provides an air rescue element that can sit alongside watercraft, shoreline scenes or rescue station builds.
