Mercedes-Benz Unimog by Lego
Mercedes-Benz Unimog celebrates 60th Jubilee this year and to mark this milestone, Lego has reproduced a 1:12.5 scale model.
The first do-it-yourself Unimog U 400 (1:12,5) will be on offer from August with 2048 elements – up to now the largest LEGO Technic model in the company’s history.
The so-called ” Power Functions ” run the pump of a pneumatically operated crane with a gripper arm that can rotate almost 360 degrees. With its gripper and the front winch, the Unimog can move any load out of the way. In addition it also has a serviceable control system and an engine which is accurate in every detail right down to the pistons. The gear unit provides good ground clearance just like the portal axles in the orginal, an individual suspension deadens jolts and the four-wheel drive guarantees mobility off-road as well. For winter use, the crane and winch can be converted into a huge snow plough. The LEGO Technic Unimog U 400 will be available from toy retailers from August on as well as from Mercedes- Benz and it costs about 190 Euros.
