“The 8217 Wasp is about as simple a helicopter as can be made and still have a functional main rotor. Released in 1998, this little micro model does nothing else. The white flex hoses are somewhat unusual.”

About Technic Microtechnic

Microtechnic is a subtheme of Technic that was introduced in 1998 and currently consists of 6 sets.

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.
