Description

A truck for the building site

On real construction sites, heavy haulers carry machinery and large equipment from one place to another, and this model does the same job in miniature. The set belongs to the construction world of City, where diggers, cranes and lorries work together. A single driver minifigure is plenty, since the vehicle itself is the star. If you already have other construction machines on the shelf, the hauler supplies the missing link that moves them around.

Grey, black and a green accent

The colour palette is unusually sober: light bluish grey and black set the tone, white joins them, and green adds a few accents. That makes the lorry look industrial and believable rather than like a toy in signal colours. At 332 pieces the model is a mid-size build that fits into one session. The trailer bed and the cab form two clearly separate stages, which makes it easy to tackle them one after the other.

78 types and plenty of mechanics

The parts list contains 78 different types. For a vehicle of this size that is a solid mix of basic bricks, plates, wheels and special elements for the cab and chassis. Wheels, axle holders and flat plates in particular are easy to reuse later for your own lorries, trailers or chassis. If you enjoy rebuilding, there is enough material here to lengthen the load bed or put together an entirely different transport vehicle.

Play, display, rebuild

The hauler rolls, so it works for play on the carpet just as well as an addition to a building-site scene. The complete parts list is further down this page. With the “What can I build?” tool you can see which other models your current bricks allow and whether you are only a few parts short of another vehicle. A single lorry can quickly grow into a whole fleet that way.
