LEGO Technic provides a real challenge for experienced LEGO builders. With elements like working suspensions and pneumatic power, children can build a range of vehicles that have realistic, real-world functions, from automatic opening doors to powerful four wheel drive. From cranes to the latest supercar, each set can be rebuilt into another vehicle, expanding the play possibilities even further. The LEGO Technic building system makes it possible to build advanced real life functions like gearboxes, working piston engines and crane arms, which integrate with other LEGO bricks.LEGO Technic Idea Book How to Enjoy The LEGO Technic Idea Book Series If you already own some quantity of LEGO Technic and MINDSTORMS parts: 1. Try to create as many models as you can with the parts that you already own. 2. If you find that you’re missing some parts, try to think of ways to substitute other parts for the ones that you’re missing. 3. If you can’t find a good substitute for a particular part, try to obtain that part on BrickLink using the following “LEGO Technic Idea Book Parts List” as reference.
If you have only a few LEGO Technic parts: 1. Buy some of the recommended sets listed in “LEGO Technic Sets I Recommend” section below. 2. Try to build as many models as possible using the parts in your new sets. 3. If you find that you’re missing parts, try to think of ways to substitute other parts for the ones that you’re missing. 4. If you can’t find a good substitute for a particular part, try to obtain that part on BrickLink using the following “LEGO Technic Idea Book Parts List” as reference. LEGO Technic Sets I Recommend (December, 2010) Honestly, it is hard to find LEGO Technic sets which include a good variety of parts. Most include the parts you’ll need in order to make a particular model, like a car or helicopter. In addition, the sets available in the USA differ from those in Japan, where I live. Of the sets sold in the USA, I think the best set is #8043 (Motorized Excavator). It’s slightly expensive, but it is worth a lot.
It contains a motor, a remote control system, lots of gears. Next, I recommend #8053 (Mobile Crane). This set contains a lot of parts like gears, but it doesn't contain a motor. If you need a motor, I recommend set #8293 (Power Functions Motor Set). If you’re unable to find these sets, please enter the set number on the following page to see which parts are included in the sets. I also recommend the following set if you are an educator. It includes a motor as well as a good variety of parts. Even if you purchase the above sets, you will still not be able to build all of the models in the books because there are hundreds of LEGO Technic parts. As with all creative LEGO building, if you find that you’re missing some parts, try to find substitutions. And above all, have fun!

The whole point of LEGO Technic is about creating complex, realistic, working machines like the one in this Top Ten List… What would be of a LEGO Technic blog without a top ten list? I have built a list with the Technic sets I have been more impressed. I have a few of them and I will try for sure to get the rest. So here is the listBecause the Unimog 400 is a big big vehicle which includes Power Functions set and features a pneumatically powered, articulated crane with working grab and a recovery winch on the front. Read here my review of the LEGO 8110 Unimog. You can still buy LEGO Technic 8110 Mercedes-Benz Unimog U 400 at Amazon but you better hurry up because it is already retired.
I could give you a thousand reasons why this model should be here, but you better read my review of this fantastic set and discover it by yourself. You can buy the LEGO Technic 42009 Mobile Crane at Amazon.Because it features a double IR control and lots of Power Function motors. You can buy LEGO Technic 8043: LEGO Power Functions Motorized Excavator at Amazon but the price is plainly nuts.Just look how cool it looks, I couldn’t but buy it. Also it has IR remote control, two L Motors and one of the new servo motors ( no more rubber bands on the steering ). Read my review of this fantastic set here. You should definitively buy LEGO Technic 9398: 4X4 Crawler at AmazonAlthough it won’t take off the ground it is a really cool looking helicopter and you can add Power Functions so the rotor spins like a real helicopter. This is one of the next model I will buy. Here is my review. I really enjoyed this set. You can order LEGO Technic 9396: Rescue Helicopter now from Amazon.
There has been a few great cars on LEGO Technic, like an Enzo Ferrari. This supercar is an example of how cool it can look… although if you google a bit you will see MOC by people that make this car look like a toy. You can buy LEGO Technic 8070: Supercar from Amazon.You won’t believe how big and cool this car is. When I built it I was simply amazed. In my opinion one of the best LEGO set I have ever built in price/quality. Don’t miss my review. It is not yet late to buy it at Amazon. I am sure you won’t regret it.This is maybe the coolest set ever released by LEGO in the Technic range. With Mindstorms you can create your own robots and machines. It is so nice that I already have two EV3 and one NXT 2.0 Here you have some examples of robot I have built like the Line Follower or the Color Sorter Go and buy one before you regret about it at AmazonI am a 100% serious. This is one of the most enlightening Technic sets that I have touch. When you build it you have the sense of understanding.
You are one with the LEGO. And what the hell… the experience only cost 9€. You must read my review of the Model A and Model B. Go and check if Amazon still has it in stock because it is worth every pound you spend on it.When LEGO retired the Unimog they had a new secret weapon. This is the new set that add Power functions and pneumatic pumps for a fraction of the price of the Unimog. Right now available at Amazon I couldn’t end this list without a bike. And this bike is at the same time wonderfull and affordable. You can’t be serious? Did you see this beauty? Read my review and know why you shouldn’t miss this bike. Get one from Amazon for barely £20 Here you have the instructions booklets to build this LEGO Technic model, given that you have the parts. My best advise is get a big model and buy the rest of parts from Bricklink. Name your favorite LEGO Technic Model, help me complete this list. Just one constraint, it has to be created by LEGO.
