Container Yard Reviews
Is this LEGO set a good investment?
“Most Technic sets have been increasing in value upwards of 5% per year but LEGO Container Yard has consistently outperformed this by 60% with a typical yearly return of 13%. Looks like a pretty decent investment so far.”

“This set is a good source of pieces in certain colors and some of the newer parts in the Technic range. The build lasted a long time for a small set but it was varied and enjoyable. There’s some very neat engineering to be found here, with an interesting variety of... More mechanisms used.”

“42062 Container Yard contains the latest in a long line of Technic telehandlers but it's the first to be designed for operation with containers. The mechanisms are clever and work flawlessly. Aesthetically the individual models are great, particularly the telehandler. To be... More honest, I'm really just nitpicking for the sake of it and these faults do not really detract from the appeal of the set.”

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.
