Mobile Crane

8421-1 Technic 2005 1885 parts 2.5% Intermediate

Command the most impressive machine on any LEGO construction site with the Technic Mobile Crane (8421-1). This authentic 2005 model features a fully functional pneumatic system that uses cylinders and an air pump to precisely raise and lower its massive boom. Power is delivered by an included motor and battery box, allowing the boom to extend telescopically to over 64 cm and lower the hook. Navigate the site with realistic six-wheel steering, where the wheels drive the pistons of the integrated V6 engine, a detail hobbyists will appreciate. Four retractable outriggers stabilize the impressive structure, which measures over 46 cm long, and the boom rotates a full 360 degrees for comprehensive coverage. Additionally, builders can transform this complex vehicle into an Aerial Lift using alternate instructions.
