An excellent construction kit, absorbing and time consuming probably takes about 20 hours to put together. I find these very relaxing to build. Lego was new when I was a child and a light up brick was about as sophisticated as it got. I dont have the imagination to make something like this on my own but thankfully it comes with very detailed step by step instructions and I have really enjoyed building this. I have previously done the Land Rover & Mack Truck kits.

Easy to follow step by step instructions. All hydraulics and gearing system works well for maximum operational moving parts. Can't wait until it is finished. I'm going to work out how to fit it with all working lights. Also really good price for what it is. Looks great.

This truck gives you a lot for the money. Tons of working functions and the pneumatics work great and are fun to play with. The non pneumatic functions seem tedious to play with in comparison, but they are still nice to have and add a lot. It might seem like a lot of money for a toy truck, but the mechanical nature the of this truck, especially the pneumatics, makes it something really quite special. I'm really impressed with it as an adult and I'm sure my nephew will go nuts when he sees it! Easily one of the best products Lego has released in a long time.

Building this kit was thoroughly enjoyable and took me about six days. It could be completed much quicker but I was in no hurry. The model has quite a few working features, some of which are pneumatically operated, and looks impressive when completed. My only criticism would be the way the pneumatics are operated. The small hand pump creates a jerky movement of the components. I feel this would be better achieved with a motorised system like other Lego kits.That said, at the discounted price I paid (£120) this was good value for money and was fun to build. I recommend it.
I bought this set the day it came out and was very excited but around half way through the build I noticed one of the pneumatic functions wasn’t working and I narrowed the problem down to one of the pneumatic valves, it was a bit disappointing but I ordered a new piece from Lego with little hassle. I kept on building and finished in about 7 hours. All of the other functions work well and the truck looks good and doesn’t have many gaps and I just got the replacement piece today and it thankfully works. Overall the set was very good it’s packed with functions, looks good and is great value. I would recommend getting this set
If you are a gadget type of person and love mechanisms then almost any Lego Technic product will make you happy. This model has over 2000 parts, many are gears, driveshafts differentials, and other active bits in it. It even has pneumatics to control some of the functions. I bought it to help a friends son explore mechanics and we are both amazed when the small assemblies we build fit into the larger model perfectly and then you understand the whole of the thing. It's like a really good puzzle but in 3D.
Definitely not for a child!! I am three quarters done and have 20 hours assembly time in it. Lots of fun to build. I am making it for display. Didnt have these when I was a child. Now being retired I have the time to build it and keeps me occupied. Plan on getting more.
I'm 80% done with this set, and its really great! It's my first pneumatic set, so I'm really enjoying the new functions. Personally I wasn't a huge fan of the look, but I do like it better in person. I've also decided to not apply the more OTT stickers. Not to knock this set, but I do wish I could buy pneumatic parts or other sets on the store.I would def buy this set again.
I only started buying LEGO for myself a few years ago after buying lots of kits for the Kids. I'm very selective in what I build and this is only the 3rd Technic kit in my collection. I bought it because I liked the look of the finished build and it hasn't disappointed. I'm always intrigued by the thought process that goes into constructing these sets and it was a pleasure to discover how they employed all the various techniques to make everything work. Well worth the time and effort.
Having looked at this set for months and always choosing other sets instead, this one kept niggling away at me. So I took the plunge and got it, and having just finished it I wish I’d done it ages ago.It’s a fantastic, fun, slightly challenging build, my first with pneumatics which makes it even more interesting, and the end result is very cool. I was planning to build without most of the stickers but ended up putting them on and I’m glad I did.As usual fantastic friendly service at the Carlisle store. I just wish they would do some sort of loyalty card scheme.
