“The best part about this is the violin case but it does not comes with a Tommy gun and the actual LEGO Tommy gun can't fit in there and you could only placed a revolver gun like this in here. I like that black suit though. It kinds of remind me of those Italian Mobsters.”
Full review at www.eurobricks.com
“Given that LEGO has generally steered clear of organized crime outside Indiana Jones, the Gangster was a nice surprise. The suit, the accessories, and the detail all make it one of those figures that, if you're building a LEGO town, you're going to want. Accessories make the... More man, and this figure has the go-to gangster accessory of a fine Stradivarius, or at least the case.”

The Gangster is a low-down, sneaky, rotten crook. Impeccably dressed in his pinstripe suit and hat, his trick violin case always at his side, he sneaks around the city setting up scams, bank robberies and protection rackets wherever he can…or at least, that’s the plan.

The problem with being a no-good criminal in LEGO CITY is that the place is just chock full of police stations. You can hardly turn a corner without running into a friendly officer or three out on patrol. So as much as the Gangster may try to make his fortune through unlawful acts, he usually finds himself spending a lot more time fleeing than committing felonies!
