Description
Mini-vehicles was the thing you most often obtained wen crying for some lego in the toy shop ;DThis are very fun to model because there are not too many pieces, and the look is always nice and fresh. Ah, the grabbing arm was the hardest part to model in this batch

wow man... you are really bringing back my childhood here. I had every single one of these sets. One of the best out there that I hope you do is the Space Cruiser. A smaller version of the Galaxy Explorer. I loved that ship.
Keep up the fantastic work!

Thank you for the comments, I loved the Space Cruiser, I had it too. I hope I'll have some time to dedicate to LEGO modeling during holidays... although the Ibanez JEM will ask for some attention

yeah, I'm looking forward to that too. I play guitar, and I own an Ibanez.

I though the grabbing arm was really recent. Weren't there magnets and clontainers at that time?

This grabbing arm was not magnetic, and is actually very very old, considering the first space set was launched in ~1979, this set should date no later than early 80's

Ma perchΓ© continuo a scrivere in inglese visto che sei italiano.... cmq..
Visto che da piccolo avevo molti pezzi calamitati pensavo fossero vecchi, mentre il primo braccio di quel tipo l'ho avuto verso 11-12 anni.

Strano, io non ho mai avuto pezzi calamitati... perΓ² sono del '75, boh.

Erano calamite cilindriche che potevano essere montate su due pezzi diversi: una base che le teneva ferme, e un gancio che gli permetteva di girare su un perno.

Di solito venivano utilizzate su una piccola scatola e su un braccio mobile.
