Mining Power Splitter Reviews
BrickFanatics
“It is the second least expensive of the four City Mining sets. The rock splitter itself is a relatively quick and easy build, so great for the younger LEGO fan. One of the great features of 60185 Mining Power Splitter is its “working” jackhammer, which is operated by a... More rubber band that returns the hammer to its original position after release.”
“The vehicle in the set is a “mining power splitter”. It has a yellow and red color scheme, a black wheel base, and a roll cage. The vehicle has a jackhammer arm. This arm has two click hinge connections to the vehicle’s main body. The actual jackhammer itself is functional,... More and you can press the red ball at the top to make the jackhammer poke up and down (thanks to the tension of a rubber band).”
