One of the last attractive Technic kits from Lego
Although the set has been on the market for over a year, this is probably the last model from Lego that on the one hand deserves the term "Technic", but on the other hand also lives up to Lego's claim (high price = perfect quality). If you look at how the 2020 models have become more expensive on the one hand, but at the same time Lego allows itself to expect colour defects (some bricks are visibly darker) in its sets from the customers, then it quickly becomes clear what is meant here.
The model is really fun to assemble. Maybe a suspension of the axles would have been nice, but in my opinion this is complaining on a high level.
Of course you can put the crane up as an exhibition model after assembling it. Nevertheless, it is fun to "play" with the model - i.e. to extend the outrigger, etc. I think that school-age children can play with it well - the crane seems quite stable to me.Pro
- Fun to build
- Instructions are really simple
- Contains a B model
- Good quality of the bricks (no colour defects)
- Interesting components for building your own models
- In contrast to the models from 2020: Here you can see the technology
Contra
- Sticker
Beautiful model that is fun to look at
A really great model with a few small weaknesses, therefore only 4 stars:
The assembly was really fun, but I had some difficulties with the instructions for the first time, but basically very good as always with Lego. The model is technically rather demanding but I see that as an advantage. Unfortunately, the wheels are not sprung, which would be mandatory for an off-road model, the side supports do not lift the model without additional parts and it would be useful if two motors were installed, so that you can e.g. extend the crane and lower the hook at the same time. Unfortunately the motor is too weak, so that the tower rotation is a bit messy. But otherwise a really nice and great model. I like it :).Pro
