Description
About this set
Skid-Steer Loader is a small LEGO Technic build with just 52 pieces. You put together a compact construction machine, then turn a knob to raise and lower its arm and shovel. It’s a simple, hands-on mechanism that makes the movement easy to see, and the loader is ready for construction site play as soon as it’s done.
Rated 7+, it’s a nice starter for kids curious about building machines, or a small treat for a young Technic fan. It’s retired, so new sealed copies of this little loader are getting harder to find as time goes on.
Highlights
- Knob raises and lowers the arm and shovel
- Compact 52-piece Technic build
- Made for construction site role play
