“The Forklift Truck from the Lego Technic series certainly does not belong to the top models. There are many forklifts in the series and this model is not among the best. Of course, not much can be expected from the few individual parts, but Forklift Truck doesn't have much... More to offer in terms of looks either. Nevertheless, the mechanism for lifting and lowering the fork is interesting. In 1998 this forklift was already sold once under item number 8248. Altogether there are four stars in the overall rating, also because the model offers a lot of fun due to its stable construction.”

“The Technic forklift is quite different than its predecessors or successors in using a unique scissors mechanism to lift the forks. It has a Technic figure operator and a cockpit made from ribbed hoses, but has no mechanism for tilting the forks which are installed in an... More orientation which is slightly tilted back. This model is otherwise pretty simple and unremarkable, but is actually quite complex for so few parts. It fits the scale of the Technic figure very well.”

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.
