Fast and fun build
" The build is very straightforward, but it has a lot of functionality once you have built it.
There are no real surprises in the build, and there is not really anywhere that you can go seriously wrong. There are no real ways to gum up the works, and it just works. The boom is adjustable and very reliable. The whole kit goes together quickly, and once it is built it is a lot of fun to play with.
A fun build for not a lot of money, I plan on taking it apart and doing the second (B model) version of it shortly.

More fun after it is built
" It goes together easily enough, there is one thing in the instructions that is not right. But other than that, the build goes quickly.
The pneumatic system works well and the multiple features are really fun to play with.
The hoses once routed properly seem to stay connected and so far none have popped off. But if they do, there is an access panel to go in and re-attach the hoses.
Good play after the build. A little expensive for what you get.

Challenging build be careful with the pneumatics
" I had several missteps when building it as I built it after work and was not always totally awake. It was a ton of fun and the challenging parts are the hoses for the pneumatics.
Be really careful doing them as debugging the assembly is not fun at all.
Overall it is a lot of fun and the design is amazing! Many hours of fun and I look forward to taking it apart and seeing if I can integrate it with a pbrick.
This would be very cool as a robot.

Nice toy after it is built!
" It went together quickly and remains fun after it is together. The treads are kind of cool, and the scoop is really well thought out.

Easy build, but once you put it together . . .
" It goes together really easily, however once you build it there isn't that much to do with it.
I built it then took it apart and built the alternate configuration.
I will probably give it to my neighbor. Either that or take it apart and use the parts for alternate projects. It is pretty generic and the parts would go really well with any other Technic set.

More fun after it is built!
" The car goes together really quickly, but then the fun begins. Like the old hot wheel cars that you would pull back and let them go this car really moves.
Also it does ramps pretty well and when it comes apart from a bad landing, it goes back together again. Lots of replay value on this one.
