Ultimate 3 in 1 Dump Truck
My very first childhood set was the Creator Mini Dump Truck, set number 5865. This set was a 3 in 1 set, where you can make a dump truck, off-roader, or race car from its pieces. However, as a child, I was disappointed that 3 in 1 didn't mean 3 vehicles in one set. So inspired by my childhood, I remade the set to have 3 vehicles in one set, where a giant dump truck carries a race car and an off-roader. The race car is stored in a hidden compartment in the engine, where the hood and the front use clips to open up. The dump truck bucket, where the off-roader is stored, has an upgraded hinge mechanism using technic pieces. The dumper also acts as a ramp for the off-roader to descend. The race car and off-roader are similar to the originals, with upgraded modern pieces. As for the dump truck, I scaled up the model but purposely kept the studs exposed to keep the feel of the original set.
