Fun Lego set
Originally posted on influenster.com
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son and I had so much fun putting this Lego set together. It was easy to follow directions but it took time to get everything lot together correctly which was fun. It is now a fun toy that he can play with and it seems like it will last a long time. We love lego sets.

Lego strikes again!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Lego Surface Space Loader was so fun to put together! I didn't get a chance to take a picture because my grandson loved it so much that he took it back to his house. Easy to follow the directions, great price, and as all Lego sets it was fun to put together. Love Legos!

Very cool real like set

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very cool set. It’s amazing that it is actually functional. You can steer the the car with the steering wheel, it actually turns the wheels. There is a part that you twist to raise or lower the car. It does take a while to assemble, but the directions are easily followed for older kids or with assistance. The age range is pretty accurate as this seems to be more of a car that you would want to display or carefully play with. I would not recommend to play roughly with this car. It’s a space car so there is a lot of attention to detail within the car as it comes with “specimens” to test and detectors. I would recommend this set to others. I received this in exchange for my honest review.

It’s multiple ways of articulating the boom are unique.

Great Lego set for kids!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Lego set is great for kids. It has various pieces to allow the user to get creative and engage in building a set. It comes with instructions and the presentation is very nice. The pieces are safe and age appropriate as advertised and when the space truck is complete its very portable. It is nice to play with and also to showcase so it's child friendly and collector friendly!

Great family activity!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My boys absolutely love Legos! It's a fun activity for the young and old alike. This little space loader turned out to be bigger than we anticipated which is a plus. My 8 year old and 17 year old sat down together and built it which was great bc that doesn't happen a lot lol great quality for the price! It's for ages 8 and up due to the small pieces being choking hazards.

This is an awesome set for beginners or someone buying it for a quick fun build. This set is an easy and intuitive build with some pretty cool features for play. I bought it to go next to my other sets in the space series and it does it’s job well. It might not be a stand alone set but is still a very fun quick build. I would definitely recommend it.

Good but not perfect

Good value for money. You get a sleek looking vehicle with a fun mechanism to raise and lower the cabin. The loading function however is clunky and impractical, with the container just dangling awkwardly off to the side. The rover does tie in very well with the VTOL Heavy Cargo Spaceship, both in appearance and interaction. Though probably not intended, it is possible to lift up the rover with the dropship, adding to the playability of both sets.

Good, decent with a lot of fun.

Fun set to put together ♥️

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Perfect set for somebody who just get started with Lego technic or is looking for a quick build. As a non experienced builder it took me a couple of hours to put this together. Very nice and fun activity to share with someone. Very nice design and well put together. I enjoyed it a lot.

Awkward mechanisms with a confusing desig
Originally posted on LEGO
No, I don't recommend this
I have to admit, I really don't understand this set. The whole thing feels slapped together. Awkward mechanisms that seem to serve no conceivable purpose. I can lift a box, great. Now what? So thing flattens out...why? Steering is difficult, you really can't store the box...it just hangs out near the wheel almost interfering with the function of the vehicle.

Although it was somewhat easy to build, there were sometimes that I was glad I had small fingers. Someone with large fingers would not have been able to place some parts.

Awesome set

The surface space loader is awesome, I love the continued use of the new orange and the color scheme all around. The crane mechanism is cool as a transporter so it is not too articulate, but the mechanism is very satisfying and cool with some imagination. The overall Main transition is the sickest part, even cooler when paired with a technic hub, it's awesome. My only critique is that it should have some of the new battery pieces to power the loader.
