Description

Two rivals, one arena

The set pairs two separate trucks, each with its own driver, so a race is built in from the start rather than added afterwards. Both models share a similarly chunky silhouette with wide stances and generous ground clearance, which keeps them stable when pushed over ramps or uneven surfaces during play. Because neither truck needs batteries or remote control, the whole rivalry runs on imagination alone, which also makes the set easy to hand over to younger builders who just want to line the trucks up and go. It's a straightforward premise that pays off quickly once both models are finished.

A tight four-colour scheme

Black, red, white and light bluish grey carry the whole build, a combination close to real motorsport liveries. Black covers the chassis and tyres, red picks out bodywork panels, and the lighter tones handle bumpers, vents and smaller trim pieces. Because the palette stays narrow, both trucks read clearly at a glance even from across a room, and the oversized wheels stand out as the visual focus rather than getting lost among too many competing colours. Anyone checking the parts list on this page can see exactly how many pieces fall into each of these four shades.

109 distinct elements

301 pieces sort into 109 unique parts, a fair spread for a set of this size. Alongside the signature oversized tyres, the mix includes chassis pieces, body panels and smaller details for lights, vents and roll bars. That variety keeps the build itself engaged rather than repetitive, despite the modest overall piece count aimed at a fairly quick session. The parts list on this page breaks every element down individually, which is handy for replacing a lost piece or hunting for specific shapes to reuse in other truck builds.

Who it's aimed at

This is a set for kids who already enjoy vehicles and like inventing their own race scenarios rather than following a fixed storyline. The two minifigures give each truck a driver of its own, so play can carry on well past the last brick. Its compact scale slots neatly alongside other LEGO® City vehicles, making it an easy addition to a wider road or racing collection. For anyone after a quick, colour-coordinated set with obvious replay value, this is a solid, unfussy pick.
