“Somewhat like 8244, the idea is a good one for play variety but suffers due to the fact the most of the possible alternate configurations don't really make any sense. Still, if you should want to put landing skids on your motorcycle or off-road wheels under your rotor, you... More can. This particular set makes use of white and blue, both colors which were in short supply at the time.”

About Technic

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.
Summary
Technic Beach Buster set 8252 was released in January 1999, retailing for $20, but has since been retired. New, unopened Beach Buster sets are valued at $48, while used sets can be found for $16 in good condition.
