So this is my third Lego Technic build and is model 42006. (You can see all my lego builds here: Tag: Lego)
So i bought this a few months ago. I really enjoyed this build and i think this model is a bit more functional than your everyday tow truck.
I personally didnt think the tracks would work too well on this model but i was wrong. They took a while and where a bit fiddly to put together but they make the model totally unique.
There is 2 switches for gear selection at the back of the model.
-
One controls the top boom forward and backwards motion, flick it the other way and it controls the bottom boom.
-
The second controls the opening and closing of the claw which has a really strong grip which i proved by lifting cans up off the side of the sofa! :D
