Description

Technic rather than town or castle

Technic sets differ from the town and castle themes mainly in how they are built: instead of plain bricks they use beams with holes, axles and connectors. With its 141 pieces the V-TOL is a small model of the range. The name stands for Vertical Take-Off and Landing. Which functions the model offers is something to check against the parts list and the building instructions, since the catalogue facts give only numbers and colours.

Black, grey and a yellow accent

The main colours are black, light grey, yellow and dark grey. It is a sober, technical palette that suits an aircraft, where yellow parts can serve as warning colour or markings. With 49 different parts among 141 pieces the selection is varied, which shows how many special shapes sit in Technic sets of this kind. The complete breakdown is in the parts list on this page.

One figure on board

With a single minifigure you can seat the pilot in the cockpit, which gives the model a sense of scale at once. Whether the V-TOL is meant more as a toy or a shelf model is up to you: Technic vehicles can often be moved and rebuilt, but they also look good on display. For collectors of the nineties range the set is a compact addition that takes little shelf space yet remains technically interesting.

Parts for your own constructions

Technic parts can be used in many ways, for example for frames, joints and drives in models of your own. If you own the set or are thinking of buying it, “What can I build?” on this page shows which extra models your collection allows. You can also hunt for individual parts from the list, should you be missing a particular beam or connector for a project that is already under way. That makes the list a handy shopping reference as well.
