Arctic Scout Truck gives much less than similar sets
Poor value
#206 of 213 City sets with 200–499 pieces
Arctic Scout Truck is rated a typical 3.9 of 5, but at $59.99 it costs about 48% more than sets with similar contents, roughly $20 extra. It gives about 40 pieces per $10 against a typical 65 for a mid-size City set, with less plastic per dollar and fewer minifigures than usual, so it scores poorly.
