Lego 46 Model 42055 Part 3

This Lego model is being constructed in sections. These communications are in line with the numbered bags of legos in the kit. The first part of the kit was to make the dumper truck covered here, this took about an hour.

Here is my workspace:

I use pasta bowls to hold the pieces while I work. This saves them from dropping into the fireplace or bouncing under furniture on the floor.

This was the first main part of this part of the build:

And this is the final part of this build. This section is the base unit with driver gears for the caterpillar tracks.

This Lego is so lovely it needs its own gallery to show it off properly!

Lego 46 Model 42055 Part 2

Part two of the journey into the largest Technic Lego kit ever available. I made the dumper trump that comes with the bucket excavator. It’s a nice little kit with steering and a raising bed.

Lego 46 Model 42055 Part 1

This is part one of a series of communications about Lego Model 42055. It’s a monster and so will be spread in sections as I am looking forward to categorising my journey.

This is the box:

42055 - The Box
42055 – The Box

There’s a Lego DeLorean on top to give an idea of scale. It is a very big box. It is the largest Technics set. The box has a gatefold style to it and so opens out to look like this:

The next exciting part was opening the box and spreading out the various part-bags. There are nearly four thousand pieces in this monstrosity and here some of them are:

42055 - Some Of The Parts

The white box on the right has the instruction book and also more part-bags in it!

And finally for your delectation I have an image of the instruction book.

Thus ends the first communication concerning 42055.

Lego 44 Model 60101

Here is the Lego City Cargo Aeroplane.

It’s a pretty neat little model.

On immediate inspection I think it looks a lot like the Lockheed S3 Viking, but I will soon be corrected if it doesn’t.
