Recommendation: meh 8 / 10 by Rufus

In 4432, The LEGO Co. has again shown how it is able to keep bang up-to-date; continuously modernising and improving an already fantastic line-up of vehicles. I thought that the range of CITY trucks exemplified by 2007's 7991 had already reached its zenith; but no, 4432 makes 7991 look decidedly clunky and outdated, and the Bright Green colour scheme brings new life to the current range, and the hope of a much larger variety of Bright Green bricks to come. Might it even replace 28: Dark Green as the 'standard' LEGO green?

Recommendation: no 3.8 / 5 from 80 reviews

This was a fun set to put together. I have a 4 yr old boy who loves to "help." This set didn't last long after he started helping... I've since just put this one on the shelf until he gets older. It was a lot of fun to put together and it does have some cool functions to it.It looks a lot like a real garbage truck. It even dumps the trash can into it! The back garbage part lifts up to empty the garbage. It's a fun set all in all, just not able to hold up to the rigors of actual play. Of all the city trucks it has one of my favorite cabs because it has "glass" by the feet area like some real trucks have.The way they made the round look was fun to witness. Lego is by far the most creative of all block companies and their QC is always top notch.
