03571 Scania Super 560R Liebherr Crane Truck w Light/Sound Module

Firstly, I give 5 star to Amazon.com that ship this item and the replacement faster than expected. I got a not proper aligned of a front wheel and Amazon.com replace me so fast. Just an hour after the complaint made-internationally shipped on the same day. Not giving any worth to their business I think.. due expensive DHL courrier cost, but for best customer satisfaction, they done it excellently. My kids love it very much and they have better sleeping night with that big toy stuff. The truck cabin has enough empty space to creatively put some electronics circuits for LEDs lighting or other attractive decoration. It done well with mine my kids too much excited triggering the LEDs button. Behind the cabin seats, there is look like a 'sleeping bed' space could be useful for further modification. Overall, the crane pole/boom well built, high quality and sturdy. But 'cracking' sound heard when they twisting the knob for lowering the boom. It need a stronger kid's hand to work it out, not so easy to counter that knob. All the mechanism of rising or lowering the poles/boom and also the winching cable got latch mechanism buy the only worries is they always off-tracked the cable out of pulley (when adding the last boom part). My kids also got fighting over when the first unit came, but they enjoy playing all these mechanism simultaneously by their bare hand, together to think and educating themselves after all. Happy with this Bruder.

Absolutely amazing. My son received the smaller Bruder crane 3 years ago (foreground), and this year received the larger one reviewed here, (background). Comparing them here for your reference. Big hit with my 3 year old and 6 year old boys. This brand makes the best quality toys.

This crane is the best designed toy I have ever seen. It is sturdy, well built and tons of fun for kids and really is just like the real thing. We bought for our four year old Grandson and he was jumping up and down excited. As I showed him how it worked and extended the boom to it's highest, he must have said WOW! a hundred times. I know it seems expensive and it is, but it is worth the price. The Germans know how to build real cars and toy trucks. Our Grandson will get other Bruder toys now for birthdays and Christmas.

Just Awesome construction and attention to detail. One of my sons favorite toys and it's well worth the high price because it lasts and lasts. The attention to detail is amazing and the functionality is so realistic. The best part is that it's as tough as nails and can with stand up to some serious abuse. If you can afford it you just cannot go wrong buying it. Who ever designed this Toy must have had kids and was just tired of buying them junk that failed in a matter of days or weeks. It seems like this was designed and built with so much pride and love for kids.

This crane was purchased for a 4 year old grandson. There is no worry about him mishandling it and breaking it. He absolutely loves the crane. He uses it for lifting his other toys, and for "rescuing" toy soldiers by dropping them a line. He loves the lights which can be turned on or off, and varied. He has already learned to deploy the stabilizer jacks for his heavier lifts. While the initial cost is more than a lot of toys, we fully expect this crane to be passed on to his little brother as he gets older.

The 3 year old who received this for Christmas was really impressed. He loves trucks, and cranes in particular. He picks up all kinds of things with the crane and likes to put a variety of his little people in the cab to drive the truck. He likes the doors opening and the lights and sound as well as the operating crane, which is huge. This child is fairly thoughtful and careful, but he only plays with it with adult supervision right now since he has a baby brother who could potentially get into trouble with it. That is fine because his dad loves playing with trucks too. When both little boys get older I think it will be just as interesting and retain its play value. I was told it is made of expanded styrene so it is very light for its size but some parts of it seem just a little bit flimsy. This is the only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5. Otherwise it seems to be well made, highly detailed and encourages creative play. I hope the long crane and doors do not snap off before the boys get old enough to really appreciate the fine details.

4yr old thrilled. Bday present. Truck is sturdy, makes noise, has a hook and boom that extends and retracts with ease. No frustrations. Loves the stabilizers.

What a high quality, scaled down version of a real piece of construction equipment. It's tough, operates smoothly, and offers lights and sounds - what more could you want?? A nice touch - the crane cable (string) winding handle locks and unlocks intuitively. Holds quite a bit of weight as well. The crane hook is metal and appears to be quite tough and heavy. The plastic extension locks in place securely and does not move until you remove it. It stores on the side of the crane arm. If you (or your child) enjoy well engineered toys, this is for you.
