Agreed! I think that this was the only 1999 set that could stand up to some
of the sets from previous years...it has a lot of functionality integrated
into a relatively small unit. And yeah, it is a very good example of the
fact that high levels of functionality can indeed be achieved without using
only beams and plates...
But the other 1999 sets and the 2000 sets IMHO don't really take advantage
of the new pieces...everything just seems to be used for decoration. It
looks like the 8466 4x4 Off-roader may change all that though...
