The LEGO Technic 42079 Heavy Duty Forklift, a 592-piece set, depicts industrial lifting machinery with functional mechanics. This model includes a driver’s cab, an orange warning beacon, and large tires. Its high-reach forks can be raised and tilted, interacting with a cargo barrel that displays a hazard-warning label. The set incorporates Technic functions like rear-wheel steering for maneuverability and engine pistons that move during operation. Adorned in a yellow and blue color scheme, with applied stickers, this 2-in-1 set offers the alternative to rebuild a powerful Tow Truck.
