Review – LEGO 42055 Technic Bucket Wheel Excavator Building Set
Product overview
Very detailed and clear instructions with hundreds of pages to get you through the building process. The 2 in 1 build is good value for money. Great for LEGO fans but is a rather large model so would need a reasonable amount of space to store and build in. Overall, a decent LEGO set which would make a great gift for someone or even for yourself.

Conclusion
Although the LEGO 42055 Technic Bucket Wheel Excavator Building Set can take up a fairly sizable amount of room, it’s an impressive project when completed.

To conclude, large but beautiful Technic LEGO set with what many could consider good value for money.
