LEGO® Drilldozer

Description

A villain with a tool

The name already tells you the idea: drilling and pushing. The model belongs to the opponents of the Hero Factory heroes and is designed as a machine or vehicle-creature. With 61 pieces the set stays small but offers enough elements for a strong presence. It is a typical example of how the range merges technic-style engineering with a figure, using deliberately exaggerated shapes that stand out on a play shelf. It is noticeable that the parts suggest machines more than living creatures, which gives the model a sturdy, mechanical character.

Silver and black as a metal backdrop

The main colours are black, red, flat silver and pearl titanium. The silver stands for drill tips and metal parts, black and pearl titanium for housing and frame, red for warning surfaces. With 31 different part types the set shows unusually high variety among small models. That is handy if you are after special parts, because many of these shapes hardly ever turn up in classic brick sets. If you like pearl titanium and silver, you get several parts here that can be reused well in robots or vehicles of your own.

Building with joints and clips

The construction does not rely on stacked bricks but on connectors, ball heads and armour pieces. That keeps assembly interesting, since each step brings a different element into play. The build is done in a quiet hour. Afterwards you can turn or swap arms and drills, which keeps the model flexible in play and encourages you to design a monster of your own from the individual parts. Keep an eye on the connectors, because they sit differently from ordinary studs and sometimes need a little force.

The parts list shows every colour and every part with its quantity. With the What can I build? tool you can check which further models can be put together from the Drilldozer and your other sets, especially if you already own other Hero Factory figures. That gives the many special parts in the box a second life, even if you eventually no longer want to keep the original assembled.
