Mercedes-Benz has teamed up with LEGO to create the biggest TECHNIC model of all time; a 2,048 piece, 1:12-scale, functioning (including a pneumatically operated crane with working gripper arm) Unimog.
Unimog – the Universal Motor Gerät – celebrates its 60th anniversary this year. When it was first launched, the vehicle demonstrated its incredible off-road ability to overcome some of the most challenging conditions and quickly gained an impressive reputation. To date, more than 380,000 Unimogs have been sold around the world, proving its four-wheel drive abilities are still unmatched by any other vehicle and continues to be the vehicle of choice for extreme environments.
