Detailed Description

Bring realistic building-site adventures to playtime with the LEGO City Yellow Backhoe Loader building set. The construction vehicle features chunky rubber tyres, a front bucket that can be raised and tipped, and a versatile backhoe arm mounted on a ball joint for smooth scooping action. Children can lower the stabiliser legs before digging, remove the canopy to place a worker in the cab and open the bonnet to inspect the engine.

The accompanying worksite toilet includes interior details, while three boulders, rubble pieces and a hidden toy gem create engaging excavation stories. Two construction worker minifigures can use the included shovel, pickaxe and work sign to manage the site.
