LEGO 42128 Technic Heavy-Duty Tow Truck with Crane Toy for Boys & Girls with mechanical Functions, Model Building Set, Engineering for Kids Series

I was fortunate to pick this up at a reduced price, and I am so glad I did! The LEGO box came inside a perfectly sized thick cardboard box so it was well packaged and protected. As ever LEGO thought about the building of this model with comprehensive instructions (over 400 pages!) with the 2000+ pieces separated into several bags numbered 1 - 4 for 4 stages of building. This made locating pieces quick and easy, in fact I left the pieces in their bags and grabbed the parts as required. Building the model didn't take too long and is not at all complicated. Once complete the Heavy Tow Truck is impressive in it's size and function. The pneumatic function is well thought out, with three levers to direct the force where needed. The Dual Winch works well, with plenty of string length for realistic play. Overall the finished Heavy Tow Truck is realistic, functional and very playable, even for an AFOL! Recommended!

Amazing and classic lego. No issues with missing pieces and comes in a huge box. Perfect for a gift. Fun and entertaining. Will keep kids busy during the evenings. Will look fantastic on display.

I was not expecting that to happen. This is the best lego model I personally have ever owned. I wanted to enjoy the construction of it and so I made sure that the instructions were followed to the letter. It took me 6 days to complete. Not because it was complicated, I just wanted to savour every last piece of building it and so I limited myself. It made looking forward to the next stage more exciting. Well done to the Lego team who designed this model with so many moving parts. It takes pride of place in my living room and if anyone mentions it, I lift it down to show all the features. A big kid, Yes, most definately and at 70 years old I hope to enjoy making another fantastic model.

Good Lego technics set and great value for money.

I bought this when it was on a deal, but even at full RRP it would have been worth it.Presented in the usual Lego way, sturdy colourful box. Easy to understand instructions, while remaining a challenging and fun build.The pneumatics are new to me, and I think they work really well. I installed some micro LEDs to just enhance the overall look.It's a must have item for any Lego fan.

The Model was brilliant it was great to put together very pleased with the out come.

Brilliant set, in short. I've bought and built a lot of technic, and this one is by far one of the most interesting, both in terms of building process and final set. The pneumatic functions are fascinating and work well, if a little bit slow to trigger at times; the one gripe is that the hoses can be quite difficult to install, and are a tiny bit too long, but not enough to be problematic. The set is large enough to be impressive, looks good on a shelf, and can be hooked up to other technic cars for a bit of fun in display and play. Very worthwhile set.

I bought this for my partner and he is very impressed with it, as am I! Lots of clever detail gone into this, good value for money and my partner is ready for the next one. It's a great hobby for someone who is into vehicles and needs time to wined down from the everyday. Highly recommend!
