This is an eye-catching crane of an unknown brand, year, and country of production, but we know that it's Lofty the crane from the animated series "Bob the Builder", and it's just amazing!
We also have a red bulldozer, this handsome blue one, and an orange concrete mixer (but until my son gets tired of it, it won't be back in the store 🥸🥸).
It's advertised as inertia-powered, but something went wrong, and it simply rolled for us. I disassembled it and still couldn't figure out the reason for the lack of inertia, but at the moment of shooting, it suddenly started moving due to friction. But now it's not working again! Let's just say it's not inertia-powered, okay?
But even without that, it's awesome! The cabin and platform move relative to each other in two directions, making a delightful clicking sound 🥰🥰.
The crane rotates on the platform and is telescopic (the length of the crane's arm can be adjusted from 18 to 25 cm).
It's a really cool piece!!!!
Dimensions:
Length 22 cm
Width 9.5 cm
Height with the boom lowered 11 cm
Height with the crane boom raised 33.5 cm
P.S. It also looks like it's breakdancing or "making waves" since it can stand separately on any two pairs of its three wheels. I showed it a bit in the photos 😎
