Torso
Dark blue torso with a light blue collared shirt print visible underneath. Features two breast pockets, a gold hexagonal police star/badge, and a printed utility belt with grey pouches and a gold buckle. Arms are dark blue with yellow hands.

Printing Details
High-quality pad printing on the torso front. Features crisp lines on the badge and utility belt. There is no printing on the back, arms, or legs.
Variants
Standard version. Similar variants exist with different facial expressions (such as sunglasses or grizzled stubble) using the same torso design.
Condition Notes
The figure shows minor play wear. Common issues include neck cracks, arm cracks at the torso join, and fading of the gold badge print over time.
Estimated Value
Used: $1.00 - $2.00 USD; New: $3.00 - $5.00 USD. The value is relatively low due to high circulation.
Price (New)
Originally available in sets ranging from $9.99 (Starter Sets) to $99.99 (Police Stations). Price per figure averages $2.00 in retail context.
Compatible Sets
Appears in sets 60139 (Mobile Command Center), 60138 (High-speed Chase), and 60137 (Tow Truck Trouble).
Character Background
A generic law enforcement officer for LEGO City, designed to inhabit various urban play scenarios including traffic stops and chase scenes.
Design Notes
The torso represents a design shift toward displaying specialized utility belts, reflecting modern police uniforms compared to the flat 1990s aesthetic.
Similar Minifigures
Similar to cty0747 (sunglasses variant) and cty0841 (females with same torso). Design parallels the Forest Police sub-theme.
Collectibility
Low collectibility for high-end investors; high utility for army-building and dioramas. A staple for any City-themed collection.
History
Part of the 2017 City Police reboot that introduced the Mobile Command Center wave, a milestone in the evergreen City theme.
Interesting Facts
The badge design is a recurring element that has been used across City, Juniors, and 4+ sets to maintain brand consistency for police units.
Display Suggestions
Best displayed in a City layout, on a 2x4 stud base, or inside a Police Station MOC alongside fellow officers and K9 units.
Modification Potential
Excellent. The neutral torso is ideal for creating custom security guards, pilots, or military police by swapping head and hair pieces.
Overall Assessment
A solid, standard-issue minifigure that provides excellent play value and realism for a LEGO City setup, though not a rare collector's item.
