Publisher's Description of LEGO Technic Volvo FMX Truck & EC230 Electric Excavator (42175)
Inspire kids to build their own heavy-duty construction vehicle with this Volvo truck and excavator toy. The LEGO® Technic™ Volvo FMX Truck & EC230 Electric Excavator (42175) comes with a flatbed trailer, toy electric excavator and pretend charging station, giving kids an immersive building project with 2 detailed model vehicles. The model is not motorized so kids can use their imaginations as they pretend to charge the excavator.
Young builders can open the doors on the LEGO Technic truck and tilt the operator’s cabin to see its 6-cylinder moving piston engine. Then they can steer the truck toy into position, detach the trailer and fold down the ramp to roll the excavator off.
The excavator toy comes with opening doors and a ton of features. See it swivel 360 degrees on its tracks then use the pneumatic pump to lift and lower the scoop. Young construction site fans can imagine working on a modern site as they lift and lower the charging station using the scoop and chains, ready to attach it to the excavator toy.
