Dragster Transporter

I bought this set today at Toys R Us. You may not be able to purchase it on here yet bet Toys R Us does have them in stock. Once I discovered that Lego was going to release this set around Christmas, I definitely had to purchase it. I always have been a huge fan of the tractor-trailer sets regardless what they consist of. Now onto the review guys! Truck: Since I love Lego trucks so much I figure I'd start here. The truck is an American style which really made me hyped about the set. I wish Lego would make more American style trucks instead of European trucks. It consists of a navy blue, white, and orange color scheme. Most of the trucks in the past mainly were red or white so I'm glad Lego chose to use different colors this time. There are no tail-lights on the back of this truck but that can possibly be changed. It features the cylindrical pieces as fuel tanks to make it more realistic. The exhaust pipes are the traditional ones which look the best. Trailer: The trailer is used to transport the dragster. The trailer appears to be a lot longer than most trailers but that just might be how I look at it. It has a lot of light and dark gray pieces to it. I like how the trailer features 3 axles instead of 2 this time. It has ramps that fold down to load and unload the dragster. A wrench and hammer are included the trailer too. Dragster: Now I really like this dragster, I can't decide if I like this better or the truck. I'm really glad that Lego has decided to make a dragster. I don't think that they've ever made one but I may be wrong. It has a nice orange and blue color scheme to it, It features really nice flaming exhaust pipes on the sides. There are large wheels in the back and smaller wheels in the front. It also has a spoiler and a little engine filter on top. Minifigures: The set includes 2 minifigures which are 1 male and 1 female crew member. The only thing I don't like about this set is the fact that the truck doors are white instead of being navy blue. I don't think Lego makes them but if they ever do make a set that has navy blue doors I will buy it just to use them for this set. I also think the rest of the white pieces should've been navy blue on the truck. Other than that this really is a great set and a cheap price! more less

Both the truck and the dragster have cool looks to them that LEGO fans who are also car fans will appreciate. Whether telling a story about getting to a race or playing out an exciting race scene with the dragster, kids will definitely be engaged in some imaginative play after building this set. more less
