Description

A ground vehicle for the ocean floor

In the Aquazone range the Aquanauts collect crystals from the seabed, and the crawler is the machine for that job. Yellow and black give it the look of construction equipment, while light grey covers the mechanics and linkages. Transparent neon orange represents the glowing crystals and is the most eye-catching colour in the model. One minifigure drives it, so a small underwater mission can be played out straight away without any other sets from the range.

Same name, different set

Set 1728 carries exactly the same name, has 97 pieces, which is just one more, and uses the same colours. Anyone sorting loose bricks or buying second-hand can mix the two up easily. Set 6145 has 33 different parts and the other has 34, and differences like that can be checked against the parts list on this page. It is especially useful when you are trying to complete a set and are unsure which instructions belong with your bricks.

Small and quick to finish

At 96 pieces this is one of the smaller models of its day. It does not take long to build, and because only 33 different parts are involved, many shapes repeat. That keeps the process clear and suits younger builders who already have a bit of experience. What you end up with is a sturdy vehicle that is good for play and copes with a slide across the carpet. As a collectable it is mainly the neon orange share that people look for.

Reusing the bricks

If you own the crawler you can use its bricks for ideas of your own: a mining vehicle, a moon buggy or a small research station. The yellow and black combination fits technical models well. The "What can I build?" tool shows which other sets your collection could make when this one is combined with further bricks. That tells you quickly whether a rebuild is worth the effort, or whether you would rather keep the vehicle as it came.
