Lego Maniacs' Guide
“A very satisfying set. I'm not sure how many construction sets have been put out for the town, but this has got to be one of the best. A medium size dump truck and small backhoe are not a bad combination, but I think a loader truck would replace the backhoe much better. Side... More note: I see a loader is available in the Summer 96 Shop at Home Catalog (#6512 Landscape Loader), so it would make the perfect addition to this set and it doesn't cost much. Most of the parts are standard car/truck pieces but there are a couple of unique pieces that also make the set worth picking up.”

BrickEconomy Member Review
“This 1996 construction-themed set offers a classic digger and dump truck combination with functional features like a spinning hinge plate for digging and a hinged dump bed for unloading. The unique printed minifigure torsos and the affordable original price make it a standout for its era, delivering great play value for kids. Though modern sets may have more detail, this one shines in simplicity and durability.”
