Great Set
I just finished building this set with my children. We all love Legos and this set just blew their minds. It is the first Technic set I've gotten since I was a kid. They sure have come a long way since the "Expert Builder" (forerunner of Technic) #948 that my parents bought for me as a kid.
The box artwork and the instructions are beautiful. As usual, Lego isn't missing any pieces and adds a few extras. With Technic sets, you really have to pay attention to orientation of the parts to build it correctly.
I really like the power system. The power take off and gear systems of the motorized cab and crane are really well designed. I only wish they would have motorized the wheels instead of the cab.
If I could gripe about one thing, it would be the looseness of the cab and the hood. It would be nice if you could lock both down.
