LEGO 6761, Bandit's Secret Hide-Out, is a 1996 Western set depicting a bandit hideout in a frontier setting. It belongs to the Western theme, contains 250 pieces, and includes 5 minifigures representing both outlaws and cavalry.
The model sits within the Western theme, a range built around frontier settings, outlaws, cavalry figures, and conflict-driven scenes. Bandit's Secret Hide-Out focuses on the bandits’ base, giving the theme a location tied to secrecy and pursuit rather than a town building or military post.
The documented contents are 250 pieces and 5 minifigures. The character lineup includes three outlaws, Bandit - Western, Black Jacket, Black Handkerchief, Brown Hat, Bandit - Western, Red Shirt, Black Handkerchief, Brown Hat, and Bandit - Western, Green Suit, Top Hat, plus two cavalry figures, Cavalry Lieutenant - Hat, White Bandana, and Cavalry Soldier - White Handkerchief.
It is suited to Western theme collectors who want a bandit-focused model, as well as to display layouts and story-led play. Within the theme, it works as a counterpart to law, cavalry, or settlement-based sets, adding an outlaw location to the broader frontier setting.
