“Overall this is a remarkable achievement for the low price. I bought it for the boom piece as I want to improve the crane that came with 7898. I highly recommend it.”

BrickEconomy Expert Review
“The functionality of turning a knob to lift the arm and another to control the string and hook adds a dynamic aspect to the build. The ability to rotate the entire upper section and deploy stabilizers enhances its realism. However, manually extending the arm feels like a missed opportunity for added mechanical ingenuity. Its size stands out compared to the typical mini-set, offering a more substantial building experience.”
 

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.
