LEGO Technic Mercedes-Benz G 500 PROFESSIONAL Line Car Building Set, G-Wagon Model Car Gift for Adults, 4X4 and Off-Road Vehicle, Mercedes-Benz Collectibles and Merchandise, 42177

This is unmistakably a G-Wagon, the Manufaktur copper orange color makes the set standout even more with its iconic design. The build takes away the transmission complexities of other similarly sized sets which for me is just redundant, this one is single speed but retains the hi and low gear settings and as with the real thing it also has 3 functioning differentials which makes the G-wagon one of the most capable vehicles. You can lock the center and rear diffs which if put on drive or reverse gears engages the model I-6 engine which for a set of this size you're gonna want that thing functioning. This is my 3rd Mercedes-Benz branded Technic set the first 2 being the Unimog U400 set 8110 and second the Arocs 3245 set 42043. Design-wise it's very squared with very few angles and catches the real thing's iconic design my only complaint however are the tires, it's big but looks so much better with the Unimog's tires and I was able to adapt the spare tire by doing a few design adjustment for the spare tire guard. I'm overall very impressed with the set I give it a 100/100 score.

Bought this as a graduation gift to myself. Came in the mail and was much bigger than anticipated LOL forgot how much ~3k pieces was. Haven't built lego in about 8 years so it took me about 16 hours but I loved all of it. Seeing it come together was so cool, and it having working suspension and especiallyy working differentials blew my mind. If your on the fence buying this, buy it. You won't regret it.
