Liebherr Crawler Crane | Construction Site | Construction Set

A real construction machine, scaled for the bedroom floor. fischertechnik's Liebherr Crawler Crane is inspired by the Liebherr LR 1110 and built from 200 parts, with a crawler drive, a rotating upper carriage and a boom that raises and lowers on its winch.

Building it is the first adventure, a substantial project for a seven-year-old with plenty of functional detail to get right. Then the crane goes to work: the tracks keep it stable, the upper carriage turns, and the winch and ropes lift loads just as the real machine does. A construction worker figure comes along to supervise.

It is the sort of set that teaches logical thinking and technical understanding without anyone noticing, and the play afterwards recreates genuine site scenarios again and again. The parts fit the wider fischertechnik system, so the crane can grow into other builds.

Suitable from 7 years. One of two Liebherr licensed sets from fischertechnik, and a serious present for a fan of big machines.
