Description
About this set
This LEGO City recycling truck is built to sort as it goes. A divider keeps the glass and paper pieces apart, and clips hold the tools. Tilt the cab forward to see the pretend electric motor. A lever lifts the two bins and empties them into the back, then raise the container to tip everything out through either rear hatch.
Kids 7 and up who like hands-on toys will have plenty to do, and the driver and worker minifigures are ready for the job. It’s retiring, so sealed boxes will be harder to find down the road.
Highlights
- Divider for sorting glass and paper elements
- Tilting cab reveals a pretend electric motor
- Lever lifts and empties 2 dumpsters
- Two rear hatches for tipping out waste
- Driver and worker minifigures
