Explore the depths with the LEGO City Ocean Exploration Base (60265-1), a 497-piece model from 2020. This detailed set establishes an underwater habitat complete with interchangeable living and research modules, offering versatile play scenarios. A functional toy crane features articulated arms for deploying equipment, while a docking submarine and an agile underwater drone expand the exploration capabilities. The base is situated on a coral-covered ocean floor, populated by a shark figure and a stingray figure, adding to the marine life. Five explorer minifigures operate the facility, conducting research and venturing into the unknown. The modular design allows for easy reconfiguration of the base's internal layout, enhancing its display and play value.
