This is my unbiased review of the LEGO City Mobile Construction Crane set 60409. At $180AUD and 1116 pieces, it’s not cheap. But does it deliver value and is this a renaissance of the LEGO Construction line? And one important question… Should it have been bigger?

In this LEGO City update, I’m going to focus on building the train tunnels just before the Train Station I showed in the last video. My goal was to give myself more space to add scenery, but also to make something a lot more interesting than just the usual straight train tunnel that’s easy to build. Hint: This was not an easy LEGO build and required some techniques I haven’t done before!
