I have mixed emotions on this. Like the structure, not the trucks or chopper. Many will like it and it has good possibilities.
And don't get me wrong. I appreciate Menard's efforts. They just cannot please everyone.

Too busy, too expensive for me.

I like it actually. Just no room for it on the current layout.

I like it. It has lots of action, perfect for a toy train layout. I wish I had room for it.

Actually its a very nice structure. One could remove the chopper, the new firetrucks, (of course this also eliminates the moving items, chopper blades and truck movements). Then repaint roof and add desired era one is modeling new fire trucks. The building covers many decades in design, so would fit any Era.

I like the building, a few fixes here and there could make it into a really great building. I would like one in ho scale.

I like it fine except for the truck animation. That yo-yoing in and out is annoying. Would be better if the user could trigger their exit or return on demand.

You could follow the wiring for this and splice in a switch. That way you could control the action and even stop it once it moved out or in. Don't know for certain the attachment, but possible attach a firetruck or vehicle of your choice to the action to come out and stop, (many fire Dept. pull theirs partially out for washing or maintenance). I drive past several stations and see them partially out. Just a thought and what I would consider doing. Maybe a Rescue Truck?

I have the MTH Firehouse, it's just right and the action is great - not so enthused on this one. I'd rather have the "other" Fire Station - the Station 51 look a like, lol
