When it comes to building LEGO, size does matter and with an impressive length of 38.6 cm (15.2-inches) from bumper to bumper and more than 2,000 pieces, the 1:12-scale Mercedes-Benz Unimog will surely be one heck of a challenge to build.The LEGO Unimog 4000 was created to celebrate the Mercedes-Benz truck's 60th anniversary this year and it is available to buy from Argos and LEGO stores with pricing in the UK set at £154.99 (about €177 or US$255).
According to the Denmark based toy company, the TECHNIC series model is fully functional and features a front winch, optional snowplough, suspension, differentials, a four-wheel drive chassis, a gear block for increased ground clearance, and a detailed reproduction of the engine right down to the moving pistons.
Mark Hopkins, Unimog UK Sales Manager, commented: “While the Unimog is a necessity ‘workhorse’ for some operations, it is also a vehicle that captures the imaginations of those who drive and work them daily, so we are delighted to be celebrating our 60th birthday by creating the most complex model in the TECHNIC range for Unimog enthusiasts to create and enjoy!"
