Dump Truck

This yellow dump truck is ready to roll - and dump. It is 6-studs wide and contains 168 pieces, is 5.5 inches long, 2.5 inches wide, 2.2 inches high, and weighs 3.7 ounces. To operate the dump mechanism, turn the black knob on the side of the truck. This will lift the piston that raises the bed. Gravity will open the tail gate to let the material in the bed dump out. To lower the bed, turn the knob the other direction to fold the piston back into the bottom of the truck, push the bed down with your hand, and then close the tail gate. Also, the truck is designed in such a way that you can decide which side you want the turning knob to be on. Do you want it on the left side or right side of the truck? Just swap a few pieces and it works either way. This dump truck would be a great GWP because 1) its mechanism functions in the same way a real dump truck works, 2) it has a small but powerful size, and 3) it would be a great addition to any LEGO construction site or city display.
