Worth more then the price
I have done a LOT of Lego sets, UCS, technic, Star Wars, etc. This set is one of the few I have done that I believe was worth more then I paid for it. All the functions, the look, the build and enjoyment of just seeing it on display make it one of my all time favorite builds. Sure you will get the haters on the color and the amount of stickers, but people please. If there is any downside it’s the time it takes to turn the gears to raise or lower the moving parts. I made a couple mods to make that a little faster, as you can see in the pics, and cmon, what tow truck doesn’t have chains. When this set becomes available again, GET IT, you won’t be disappointed.

Awesome Mechanics
I just recently got into building these kits since my wife bought me the Mustang for an xmas gift. I've since built the Defender, Lamborghini and the Porche 350gt.
I always enjoy seeing how they figure out the mechanics of each model. This truck is pretty cool in that department. The pnuematics on this model is really neat. It's a fairly straight forward build, alot of neat details for the price.
These kits are great for keeping your mind and hand coordination sharp. A really enjoyable build. The instructions are always top quality. Now I'm keeping my eye on the bulldozer.

Best Build!
I've built a LOT of Lego sets and this is easily one of the most enjoyable. Plenty of gearing which I was trying to work out as the build progressed, but it was only when the build was complete that I realized the sheer brilliance of it!
No idea how you guys managed to pack so many features into one truck, but bravo. More sets like this would be very welcome, especially as it was such amazing value for money.
Seriously impressed!

Best set I’ve owned
This is such an amazing set with so many complex functions(my favorite are the outriggers) although I have found a few minor problems.
1. When I use the pneumatic pump, pressing it down puts a lot of strain on the model which causes pieces to separate.
2. I don’t know if this is just in my model, but when I roll it forward some pieces in the engine catch and make a loud clicking sound. When I roll it backwards it works just fine which seems odd. I don’t know if there is a fix for this, but in the meantime I’ve just removed the engine.

Amazing set- massive (60cm) truck
This sets looks really cool! It employs pneumatic functions instead of motors and all the functions are being performed via a small pump. The colors are blatant but personally I dont have any problem! It is so neat!

Great product, not over priced.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great product, not over priced. Once lego puts a brand like Mercedes or Mack on an item, the price normally doubles to triples this price just for a brand. Great price for this item. To bad technical sets around the number of pieces doubles or triples just because they put Volvo, Mercedes, Mack, Etc on it!
Besides the missing parts that I've already ordered, one Pneumatic gear not working properly. This set is awesome.
Went and got some tyres from my local brick store until my others arrive.
Also need Miltary Vehicles. I find lego to be hypocrites when comes to this.
If they can make star war sets with war machines, guns, etc. (Yes, I know they're not real) then they should be able to make military Vehicles and mini figures as well.

Buy as many as you can
Mark my words: this set will go down as one of the greatest LEGO Technic sets ever. 1. great value for the money(Pneumatics, 2 differentials, turntable, 6 linear actuators, lots of the new Technic beams, 8 wheels, etc) 2. lots of functions. It really packs a lot inside a small area 3. its beautiful. No other Technic truck has had better looks since the AirTech Claw rig. I'd say buy as many as you can, you wont regret it

Very challenging build
This is a VERY challenging build -- far more difficult than I expected. In fact, I would say this is more difficult than some of the larger Technic builds (Ferrari, Bugatti, etc.): this one has fewer pieces, but you really need to pay attention as there are various steps along the way where the build offers subtle (but important!) changes from what you otherwise might be used to with these sets. One suggestion: offer the occasional "Check your Build" feature like with some of the larger sets: again, this one doesn't have the piece count of the larger sets, but there is enough functionality that checking along the way would help ensure a solid final build. All in all a great set and one that far exceeded (in a good way!) the challenge I always expect and enjoy with Technic sets.
