This is great! It's got lots of engine bits showing, and well, it's tractor
shaped...
Something I wrote about the last Technic tractor but didn't post:
Farm equipment under the Christmas tree... it still happens, but it's a
smaller niche. By marriage I'm a step closer to rural than urban now, and I
remember a child at the last holiday gathering who shrieked with joy at his
final present:
"The manure spreader!"
It was the last piece of equipment he needed to make a complete set, you
see. Lego, much less Technic, doesn't even appear in the toy aisles at Fleet
Farm.
