This set was given to me by my wife for Christmas. This was the beginning of my addiction to Legos! The technical aspects of this set blew my mind as this is Not the Legos of my childhood. If you love technical and mechanical things, this is one of The best sets to make! I only wish they had more similar to this set. A Semi Tractor and trailer a bit bigger than this is what I'm looking forward to! 10/10 Highly recommended!
Amazing!!

This kit is an interesting build considering it has the Pneumatic aspect. The instructions and build are well layed out. It has all the features of a real rotator. Only a couple small misses. First is the lift arms don't get the tires off the ground. It would be nice if it had at least one marker light on each side towards the rear/bed of the truck. Lastly a cute idea would be to put a CB radio and antenna on the truck.

This is easily in my top 5 sets. The build was fun. It's very sturdy, so you would have no problem playing with it. The functions are very COOL!!! It makes the set. The value of this set is high, as the cost doesn't seem to match the size and complexity of this set. I would recommend this set. Get it before it's gone.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This set insane with its high piece count and low price with pneumatic functions. i know i am writing this a bit late but i also got the john deer skidder they made this year and it has pneumatic's as well as a lower piece count and higher price. this set is the definition of what lego technic is.
Well thought out

Absolutely brilliant model. Looks the business on display. Quite a challenge and described as 11+ then we must have clever 11 year olds these days. 😁 I really enjoyed this build and I was so impressed with the pneumatic functions which worked a treat. Great value for money. Would definitely recommend.
A+

This set is fantastic. The build is challenging but not overly difficult and no repetition; the stickers are great and add tons of visual appeal; the functionality with the pneumatics is amazing. I would strongly recommend that you pick up this set before it retires. I look forward to many more large Technic sets, especially ones that incorporate the functionality that this set has.
Pneumatics worked well

I’ve built many “Technic” kits but the pneumatic components made it even more enjoyable to build. As always I use twizzers to align decals so they don’t stick to my fingers! Didn’t use the “Hulk” decals buy relocated the lightning which I liked better. And I eliminated the steering knob because I build my kits only for display. I think it looks better that way.
Fun build

I love technic builds and this is no exception. The detail and functionality is awesome. My only complaint is box size. Lego sets are almost always in boxes that are too big. Take some of the air out of the bags and you can cut the box size by 2/3. Lego is taking steps to make packaging more eco friendly. Reducing the box size would save on so much packaging and shipping costs. Would also help customers who want to be able to store their sets but don’t have the space for the boxes. I only have one shelf in the store room where I can store my sets. By switching out the Lego boxes for plastic tubs I was able to store 4-5 times more sets in the same space. One tub for each set still uses less space because each tub is smaller and not 3/4 empty like the boxes would be
Satisfying Build - Tons of features!

This was a really fun, if very advanced, build. There were a ton of tricky Technic steps that felt like I was back building a Technic truck from the 90's! The overall build is very solid with tons of features. The truck is also pretty big. Make sure you have the shelf space for it. Definitely not for beginners!
Amazing, but a couple issues

The set is great overall, most of the functions work well, it looks good, but the pneumatics are sometimes a bit finicky (I may have built something wrong), and the strings were very frustrating to tie off but once on they work great. Even with those minor cons I still think this is an amazing set, especially for the price, and I would absolutely recommend this to anyone that wants a very functional set, with an appropriately complex build.
10/10

Sat down for straight 12 hours to build this... Gotta say i absolutely loved every second of it. The build is kinda underpriced so its a must get if you want to sit for hours and just build with some music in the background.

I admit to being a technic fan and even a snob. But, this one blew me away with just how creative the build was and seriously, how fun it was to build. Very, very nice set.

I thought this wrecker was a great build. As a former Cdl driver, this model excited me when I saw it and I had to build it. I was not disappointed. It went together well and has many cool features to use once it is finished. It looks great sitting on my self as well.
This is a favorite of all my builds!

I enjoy the Technic sets and when I saw this I had to buy it. It has so many features! Having the ability to pump up the air pressure and then watch everything it does when you move the levers is amazing for the price of it! Every adult friend that has seen it had to play with the different functions and they were like kids again! I have to admit that I was too! If you can’t tell already, I love this set and will never get rid of it!
