Bought this as the little one likes construction vehicles.Does require someone who is a bit older due to the harder to follow instructions when compared with the Lego City stuff.The mechanical functions on this is quite unique, will give the little one plenty of playing time.

I’ve purchased this Lego for my son’s birthday. We had eyes on this one for about three months because of the price. Amazon Lego store has 40% sale on this Lego so we had to get it. My son turned 10 and he enjoys building it.

Magnífico
Muy buen set, llegó todo bien embalado no faltó ninguna pieza, tiene varias piezas “críticas” sobrantes, por si pierdes las otras, el manual detallado y muy explícito. Me llevó varias horas montarlo (3-4h) pero si te gusta algo más desafiante, es muy bueno. El único “problema” que he encontrado es que las válvulas neumáticas parecen un poco frágiles, dan la sensación de que no van a durar mucho, además de que no sellan bien: dejé el brazo levantado y al día siguiente lo encontré en su posición más baja. Pero para la facilidad con la que se monta el circuito (sin ningún tipo de herramienta ni pegamento ni otras cosas) yo lo veo muy bien.
