Great value

#14 of 81 Technic sets with 1,000+ pieces

Good value and only just short of great: the Defender gives about 98 pieces per $10 against a typical 77 for big Technic sets and roughly 21% more plastic per dollar, and 560 builders rate it 4.3 of 5. The drawback is price, around 12% (about $21) more than sets with similar contents usually cost.
