“LEGO loves doing these Street Sweepers. However like the camper they only appear so often. The most recent before 2005 was 1995 so about 10 years. Also LEGO sure is original all of the Street Sweepers have had the exact same name. Good set and everyone City needs a street... More cleaner.”

“The Street Sweeper 7242 is a charming and fun-to-play-with set. Though the building experience is basic, the part usage is interesting, with highlights like the red tank and vacuum dish. Its playability, featuring forward-mounted brushes and a vacuum, adds to its appeal. Overall, it's a worthwhile addition to any collection, especially given its affordability.”
