“This 42035 Mining Truck is one of the first new Technic sets of 2015. It is a small/medium sized set, and has a great looking design. Read on for the full review. I think this set looks great. It is a small/medium sized Technic set at 361 parts, so doesn't come with a real... More lot of variety other than the new tapered panels and some of the increasingly common 3L Axle Pins.”

About Technic
TECHNIC is one of The LEGO Company's main lines based on creating detailed model machines and mechanical toys with specialized beams, axles, gears and connectors and primarily designed for older children and adults. The theme was first introduced as the Expert Builder series in 1977, but was officially renamed as TECHNIC in 1984. TECHNIC is still an active theme, and is one of the longest running themes in LEGO history. While most TECHNIC sets are vehicles that use pieces to mimic real vehicles, such as engine pieces, suspension, pneumatic, and transmission pieces, the TECHNIC parts have been used by various other System themes as well as LEGO Mindstorms.
Summary
Technic Mining Truck set 42035 was released in January 2015, retailing for $30, but has since been retired. New, unopened Mining Truck sets are valued at $78, while used sets can be found for $28 in good condition.
