Cat D11 Bulldozer gives a little less than similar sets
Below average
#59 of 81 Technic sets with 1,000+ pieces
Much of this licensed Cat bulldozer’s $499.99 price goes into motors and hubs rather than pieces, so it scores below average: about 62 pieces per $10 against a typical 77 for big Technic sets and roughly 20% less plastic per dollar. Builders rate it 4.4 of 5, but it costs about 76% more than similar contents, so buy it for the motors, not the value.
Motorized: motors and hubs cost a lot but add little plastic, so these measures undervalue it.
