What a great little set! A mix of old Technic and system with fab play value. Who doesn’t like a helicopter? Just look at the city range over the last few years! There are many very poor and odd sets in the Technic range from the 90s but fortunately these are mixed in with some of the best ever made, 8880 was from the same year. Loved the blueprint background boxes from this time as well. Perfect!
Yes, it's a great little set, one of my favourites at the time, and one of the first sets I bought after emerging from my dark ages.
I miss this set. Had it when I was younger but got lost back in NZ. It was a good one
"It's owned by 1260 Brickset members" I am one from those members. I really liked it, but one thing allways bothered me. I had some of those Technic maxi figs, and after I put one in this helicopter's chair the figure's head was higher then the cabin's "roof". Never understand why was designed this?
