Good value

#11 of 51 Technic sets with 200–499 pieces

Good value mainly for its plastic per dollar, about 39% above the norm for Technic sets with 200–499 pieces. This Monster Jam truck also gives around 98 pieces per $10 against a typical 85 and costs about a third less than similar contents, but a 3.6 of 5 rating, lower than most of its group, holds it back.
