“The early years of Legoland Space were full of magnificent little vehicles and this is a fine example. It’s the perfect compliment to survey vehicle 6841 – “you find it, I’ll dig it up” – and has many of the same strengths and weaknesses.”
Full review at brickset.com
“Small vehicle with articulated shovel, printed computer slope, white astronaut, and a walkie-talkie. I’m a sucker for sets with construction/loading functionality. Love the shovel piece with articulated arm. There are many good pieces packed into this small set.”
