LEGO Technic 8068 Rescue Helicopter

LEGO Technic 8068, Rescue Helicopter, is a 2011 set depicting a rescue helicopter.

Set 8068 represents a rescue helicopter in the LEGO Technic theme. Its role in the theme is to bring an emergency aircraft into a construction system built around beams, connectors and visible structure.

Rescue Helicopter suits Technic builders who want an aviation rescue model rather than a road vehicle or construction machine. It can be displayed as a standalone helicopter or used for vehicle based play. In a Technic collection, it is positioned by its rescue theme, aircraft form and absence of minifigure storytelling.
