That's cool, but not really the same thing. Pulling a 12kg object with wheels under it (like you're Garbage Truck ) requires some amount of force, but it is *much* less than lifting that same 12kg in an arrangement like the one that Thomas used to (...) (23 years ago, 21-Jan-02, to lugnet.technic)

(...) 3 kg doesn't seem like a lot of weight, but it's quite a bit in relation to Lego models. It's impressive to try and hold the model back with my hands. It feels like it's pulling more than 3 kg. The tractor is too compact. It's nearly solid (...) (23 years ago, 21-Jan-02, to lugnet.technic)

Howdy I got the Manas set for XMas. The larger of the 2 manuals was incorrectly bound (it goes 1-18, 11-18, 27-58, 67-74, 67-83). I called customer service & had them send me a new one.
