I've almost all of the RESQ sets except ERC (too much town jr.ish) and one or
two s@h only sets (2xxx sets released through the end of year).
The admiralship of the series is the RESQ Cruiser in my opinion. Aerial recovery
set could have been very cool if it had longer main rotor blades, and narrower
landing skids. It looks pretty nice from side (excluding rotors) but really
sucks from front or top. Playability is another concern though, and I think it's
fully satisfactory from this point of view.

This is a cool set even though it may not resemble anything
in the real world.  If I ever see this on sale, I'd pick
up another.

I just built this model and I think its awesome.  This is definately one of
those models that I won't take apart.  I may replace the cabinets with 2 2x3
bricks though (I use them in my buildings).  Overall the Res-Q series gets • an
A.

I give the theme a B+, as the Emergency Response Center has a few interesting
pieces, yet is still very Town Jr'ish so that really lowers the overall grade
with me. I have two, as they were over 50% off when I bought them. I wish that
the Res-Q theme had at least one female Res-q'er though.

But I do think 6462 AR is much better than many current sets of similar piece
count. I built the copter nearly a year ago and it's still together. Unlike
the ERC I can't bring myself to take the AR apart.
