The LEGO® Bucket Wheel Excavator 42055 is the largest LEGO® Technic set to date, released in August 2016. This massive 2-in-1 set allows you to build and operate a meticulously detailed reproduction of a real-life mining excavator. With a cool dark-blue and yellow color scheme, hand-railed walkways, huge tracks, and a detailed cab, this set is perfect for adult LEGO® enthusiasts. The included Power Functions motor allows you to activate the conveyor belts, rotate the massive superstructure, and maneuver the colossal machine into position. You can also activate the boom to lower the gigantic, digging bucket wheel and convey the mined material to the waiting mine truck. For an additional building challenge, you can rebuild it into a Mobile Aggregate Processing Plant. LEGO 42055 features a LEGO® Power Functions motor for an array of motorised functions, including forward and reverse driving, rotating bucket wheel, moving conveyor belts, and rotating superstructure, plus a working bucket wheel boom. This set includes over 3,900 pieces, providing an immersive and rewarding building experience. The Bucket Wheel Excavator measures over 16” (41cm) high, 28” (72cm) long, and 11” (29cm) wide, while the Mobile Aggregate Processing Plant with boom retracted measures over 8” (21cm) high, 34” (88cm) long, and 8” (21cm) wide, and over 12” (33cm) high with boom extended. The Mine Truck measures over 3” (10cm) high, 7” (19cm) long, and 3” (10cm) wide. This set offers an age-appropriate building experience for ages 11-16.
