Good value

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

Only just good value: this licensed McLaren is about typical for big Technic sets on plastic per dollar and pieces (81 per $10 against 77), and builders rate it a strong 4.4 of 5. The price holds it back, as $449.99 is roughly 39% (about $126) more than sets with similar contents usually cost, so buy it for the car rather than the value.
