4 out of 5 stars Great fun!   October 24, 2008

I bought this set because, as a grown man, I really couldn't justify spending much more money than this on a toy. Still, it brought me back to my youth! I've always liked the LEGO Technic sets, and it seems like they've come a long way since the last time I put one together. I made the "A" model, the dune buggy - with rear suspension and a "working" 2-cylinder engine. It was very interesting to put together, and well-planned. It took me about an hour, and now I've got a very detailed dune buggy with working steering and suspension. I haven't made the "B" model as I can't bring myself to take apart the buggy yet, but I expect it'll be just as good. Now I have to stop myself from getting bigger Technic sets now that I've been reminded how much fun they are.

I did not expect too much from this model but in the end it has proven a very fun, robust model. It is a simple design that works very well. The engineering principles are easy to see and it holds up to rough play from the children. Updated December 2008: this set is now out of production and becoming scarce. This is not a very large set and you may find better value in some of the newer, in-production sets (e.g., Lego 8256, 8261 and especially 8262).
