July 27, 201510 yr Not a chance. I built one of these and it is so detailed that you'd need a full list to be safe.
July 27, 201510 yr If those plastic bags at the bottom are empty, then it's incomplete. The telescope is entirely missing along with a portion of the telescope mechanism on the turntable and some of the cabin. I have 4 of these built in my collection.
July 27, 201510 yr And reason for price in my opinion - it was the best Crane of its kind up until the release of 42009 which will be eclipsed by 42043 in a few days now. They (as well as 8258) were all designed by the same designer.
July 27, 201510 yr Author Thanks. And guy wants $75 for it. I asked if all the pieces were there he said he didn't count them

July 27, 201510 yr Author He doesn't sound like a lego guy says he bought it with a few other things at an estate sale
July 27, 201510 yr He doesn't sound like a lego guy says he bought it with a few other things at an estate saleThen he's probably willing to make a better deal than $75 if you can convince him it's not likely complete and will be costly to complete.Does he have all the instruction books? Looks like only one in the picture which should be a concern.
July 28, 201510 yr Just make sure the tyres and the pneumatic cylinders are there. They're the main costly parts of the kit.
