Description

A building site in miniature

A digger is one of the most popular City subjects because everyone understands it at a glance: arm, boom and bucket can move, and they invite digging in the sandpit. Set 7248 dates from 2005 and has 128 pieces. The single minifigure is the driver, who sits in the cab. That puts everything you need for a small building-site game straight into the box, with no extra sets required.

Yellow with grey accents

Yellow dominates, as it does on real construction machinery, with dark bluish grey, black and light bluish grey for mechanics, tyres and track sections. The colour split feels realistic and makes the vehicle easy to spot on a shelf. With 61 different part types the choice is wide for a set of this size, which suggests a detailed build. The parts list below shows every colour and shape listed individually, which makes comparing a loose copy easy and shows at a glance whether small joint pieces are missing.

Build, move, play

Much of the fun lies in assembling the movable joints. Once the digger is finished you can load sand, blocks or small bricks and dig the pit out again and again. The model is handy and sturdy enough for everyday life in a playroom. It also earns a place in a City town: beside roads, lorries and buildings, the construction site gets a centrepiece that is easy to move around or extend with more machines.

Reusing yellow bricks

Yellow and grey bricks are wanted for many City models, such as cranes, lorries or workshops. The Was kann ich bauen? tool checks which other models your existing parts can make. The part search helps you find a particular joint or special piece in other sets. That makes the small digger a starting point for vehicles of your own, assembled from your collection and rebuilt as often as you fancy, without needing to buy another box. A crane or dump truck would round off the scene nicely.
