Awesome!
What an absolute green beauty. It’s remarkable those green windscreen pieces are still unique to this set.
It's a fine companion set if you have a seaport, or cargo train set. Other than that, it wouldn't mean much in a city.
I read this at first as “contains stickers”
I was like oh no I knew they liked to use stickers but now they’re advertising it as a main attraction. ;-)
I own this thing... I remember getting really frustrated with the boom - it has some flaws with the lifting function. Even though it looks good in the pictures, it's not that great of a set in my opinion. It ended up getting sorted in my parts collection instead. ;)
That driver is gonna ragequit when they realise that those containers will not, in fact, stack.
it was great to have these add-on vehicles to incorporate into harbour or other cargo layouts
This is a great looking set.
What is a bit bizarre is when you build it, all the random and irrelevant coloured parts that make up the structure before the handful of green panels go on to finish the model. It would have been a better buy parts-wise had it had more of its internal parts in green. As it is, you can't build much else from the set without it looking a multi-colour mess.
Exclusive to Woolworths (UK), if I recall correctly.
A magnifico set in my opinion and those containers can be stacked as long as one tip is removed, SW port really finds an use for this set.
Stack them containers!
