LEGO Technic Jeep Wrangler (42122)

This is one of the most interesting LEGO builds I've done. It wasn't an easy build but it was very satisfying when completed. A very enjoyable activity, and for the money spent, very worthwhile. This is one of the best looking Technic themed kits I've every seen. It's probably not for most younger children, but possibly for the child that possesses an extraordinary mechanical ability, good dexterity and strength. A highly recommended challenge. Get one while they're still available.

Lego WranglerThe first impression I got of this Lego Technic Jeep Wrangler set was “excitement”. The background they chose for the box just makes you excited to open it up and start assembling it. Once opening it and organizing the contents, I found the instruction booklet to be very well laid out and easy to follow. The system of smaller, individually labeled bags to build the set in stages helps keep the pieces organized and easier to find. Being a Technic set, there are many small pieces and more attention to detail. Once assembly was complete I could really appreciate all the small details of this set. The articulation of the suspension is great, and closely mimics the actual Jeep Wrangler it was designed after.

The system of smaller, individually labeled bags to build the set in stages helps keep the pieces organized and easier to find. Being a Technic set, there are many small pieces and more attention to detail. Once assembly was complete I could really appreciate all the small details of this set. The articulation of the suspension is great, and closely mimics the actual Jeep Wrangler it was designed after. The doors and hood open and are neat features, as well as the winch on the front bumper. Another cool feature is the steering. The one thing about this set that I did not like is the directional tires. These are more like an agricultural type tread design than a typical off-road tire found on a 4 wheel drive vehicle. I do like the bright yellow, but I think it would be cool if they offered it in more colors. Overall, this is a very fun set to build and play with even after assembly and covers a very wide age group.I must add the best part of all LEGO sets is the fact that we spend time as a family without any electronics involved, is for sure a must in my family and LEGO is a stamp in my household for this reason.

Adult Lego fan here and this Jeep was a challenging yet rewarding build for me. I had to redo several sections because sometimes the directions were not as clear to follow along with. The most frustrating part was threading the winch/hitch piece. It came together quicker than I thought. Took me 3 days to build because technic pieces wreak havoc on fingers and long nails. This set did not come with a brick separator. I recommend this set though. Looks great with my growing Lego fleet of cars. Happy building, friends!
