Summary

[edit]
Description

Set 588, released in 1979, was the first police station for Lego's Town series. Although numerous police stations were released by Lego over the years, this one still stands out due to its unique yellow/green color scheme, rather than the more expected blue. With three vehicles and four minifigures, this is a great set to play with; in fact, I actually had this one in childhood, before losing a few pieces and giving the rest of it away.

Due to the age of this set, yellowing of some white bricks is quite considerable, nevertheless this set is complete, in decent condition, and very presentable.

The European-market Set 381 was identical to this US-market set.

Here is the completed set, seen with two additional vehicles and a policeman comprising Set 540, Police Units, which is the US-market version of European market 644, Police Mobile Patrol. With a fleet of four ground and one air vehicles, this is one very formidable police force. Set 540 was thrown in for free by the eBay vendor who sold me Set 588.
