Since the beginning of LEGO City, different types of vehicles and construction machineries have appeared in different sizes and forms. We had trucks, diggers, excavators, cranes, cement mixers and even a heavy hauler. A few years ago it was released a snowplow truck (set code 60083) but one vehicle was still missing. Now I have the honour to introduce you a new vehicle that can be part of the City Series: Snow Grader!
For a few years ago I tried to build it with some real bricks, but since this construction requires a few special parts the result was not the expected one. Even with this, I didn't gave up completely and with LDG I could start over and now I believe that this version is functional, playable and realistic.
There are many companies manufacturing graders, but for this model I dindn't used a specific real brand or model.
When it comes to the structure, this grader have following properties:
- 283 bricks, including the operator
- two bigger components: the engine and the cab placed on 2 fixed axles and the flexible element that holds up the blades
- visible engine components at the back of the cab
- middle blade that rotates and goes up and down
- front blade that can rotate in sides and even up and down
Since the number of bricks is quite small, a real assembley would not require very advanced skills and of course the price for this set would be a decent one. The grader is designed with as many moving elements as possible to make it more playable. One that I like particularly is the blade in the middle, designed with almost all elements that can be found on a real model.
And if you're wondering about the wallpaper: I didn't took it from google, that is a photo from my personal collection 😁😁
