* Can the puller steer? If yes, how does it work?

From the images I have seen, it appears to have flex system steering,
much like 8445 and 8437.

Yes it does. And I should have mentioned in my review that it sucks big
time. The steering wheel is connected to the front steering mechanism by
flex and it doesn't work very well. It is very dependent on the positioning
of the flex tube

(...) Huw, didn't you see in the video...the real things steer like a stuck pig, or a steamroller with the pin in (dif pin)...:) Lego is only trying to make it easier for you! James (24 years ago, 27-Aug-00, to lugnet.technic)
