About this deal

LEGO® NINJAGO® offers an amazing collection of cool playsets any ninja fan will be proud to own and lets them learn positive life skills through exciting adventures with their heroes. This material handlerhas so many functions. It has a pneumatic moveable arm with an incredible reach of around 35cm and a grapple that opens and closes. Manually, the upper arm can rotate a full 360 degrees. It even has an elevating operating cab, an undercarriage system with steering, and 4 outriggers. Oh, and it’s red!

This 780-piece battle set provides a fun-filled build for kids aged 9 and up and makes a great birthday or holiday gift that will wow their friends. This set consists of about 404 pieces andmeasures over 32cm in length, 22cm in width, and 44cm in height. The best bit? You can rebuild this into a Race Powerboat! It might be considered a simpler build, but it remains a delight. When putting this list together there were several key points that help qualify different sets for inclusion. We wanted to provide options for readers on all budgets, and we wanted to showcase the variety available within the Technic range. Obviously, the biggest factor was how cool each of the sets are, but of course, the challenge of the build was part of it too. Ultimately, these are the eight sets we like the most. Now, I wonder if it's possible to add a Control+ hub and a couple of motors to it. That would make it more fun!

5. Lego Liebherr Crawler Crane LR 13000

LEGO Technic sets are ideal for LEGO fans looking for a new challenge. They offer an advanced building experience for kids and adults who enjoy learning new engineering skills – or simply love to build. The Lego Mars Rover features 360-degree steering and a movable arm. It has a fully articulated suspension, perfect for driving across uneven surfaces. It showcases intricate detailing, including a constructible power unit, antennas, a camera, and scientific instruments. Oh, you also get the Rover companion helicopter, Ingenuity! After it's been in the water it's likely that some will have entered the hulls, since they are not sealed, so the bottom part can be removed, by first removing the daggerboards, to empty them. The LEGO® Tree House toy measures over 7 in. (18 cm) high, 4 in. (12 cm) deep and 4 in. (12 cm) wide – the perfect size to play with or proudly display in a bedroom. Accessory elements include an inflatable ring, life preservers, flippers, ice creams, popsicle, baskets, newspaper, smartphone and an mp3 player.

However, somewhere in the middle there are two interesting sets that are likely to appeal to the adult Technic fan: 42108 Mobile Crane, and the subject of today's review, 42105 Catamaran. The sea? A lake? I suggest that the risk of losing it is too great for anyone to want to do so there. In the bath? Paddling pool? Fun for 3 minutes... There have been numerous ships and other vessels released throughout the history of Technic, but never a twin-hulled one, or one that doesn't sink as soon as it hits the water. I also suspect that most people will be disappointed with it due to the impracticality of actually floating it somewhere, and also because it doesn't look particularly good on display unless you remove enough parts to allow the hulls to sit flat, as I had to do for the photos of it 'at sea'. The Keepers' battle catamaran has 2 spring-loaded shooters and can split into 3 separate boats, one with a mini prison for the ninjas, and one featuring 2 stud shooters and a casket of diamonds.Get building straightaway with full instructions for the Catamaran in the box. Ready to build the Race Power Boat? You’ll find extra instructions for this online. Exciting high-sea adventures await ninja fans with this unique and super-cool LEGO® NINJAGO® Catamaran Sea Battle (71748) playset. One of the 2 included catamarans splits in to 3 separate boat toys, one of which features a mini prison, so kids have all they need to enjoy hours of imaginative play.

I'm struggling to see the point of this set. It floats, which I guess is cool, but where exactly are you going to float it, given that once it's been 'launched' you have no control of it? You can even boot up the augmented reality app to get a sense of what the real NASA mission was like. With a moderate level of challenge, this set is an ideal choice for all space enthusiasts. The Keepers' catamaran measures over 8.5 in. (22 cm) tall, 13 in. (33 cm) long and 9.5 in. (24 cm) wide – a great size to display in a child's bedroom between playtime battles. Look out for more NINJAGO® sets inspired by the TV series, including Lloyd’s Jungle Chopper Bike (71745), Jungle Dragon (71746) and The Keepers’ Village (71747). This set boasts both aesthetics and function. Firstly, the catamaran Lego set actually floats on water and fits perfectly in a bathtub for racing shenanigans. Designed with an educational purpose in mind, this model features working sails. You can use the rudder to steer and raise and lower the daggerboards to maximize stability. Of course, the catamaran also looks the part. It has the classic 2-hull design, just like a real-sized version.

2. Lego Material Handler

Ideal for developing engineering skills, this 2-in-1 model sailboat kit lets kids build, play and rebuild, giving an introduction to how boats really work. Finally, the levers on the tops of the hulls raise and lower the daggerboards, as seen in the photo above. Comprising a total of 1360 pieces, this set falls into the category of relatively large sets (though it’s nothing compared to the biggest Lego sets ever made). The finished model measures approximately 11 cm in height, 45 cm in length, and 17 cm in width, making it an exceptional display piece. Without a doubt, this set deserves a place on the shelves of Batman fans. LEGO® Creator 3in1 sets allow kids to enjoy amazing imaginative play as they devise fun stories around the 3 different models in every box.
