Engines on real planes are oval too. and the "wobbliness" is to simulate the torque of real engines (that also don't sit 100% absolutely still on real planes) so its quite accurate. The random black pieces scattered throughout lend to a livery of plane that is "used" and not brand new off the factory hangar. Over time, black streaks and spots form on all planes, so this idea from Lego is to emulate that.
10:35 That is kinda terrifying. It either be bopping it's head to beat or having a seizure. The first lego technic set capable of having seizure? I'm sold!
Finally a proper LEGO Technic plane! I wish it were cheaper! To be honest, I'd have preferred it to have manually powered functions and not battery-ones. I never liked batteries-driven LEGO. I hope there will be the same plane but without the power functions that raise the price!
Hey There! Great Review, ordered the set a few days ago. As a private pilot, I can tell you why the canopy has a bit of black on the outside. On a lot of light coloured aircraft, the sun reflects a lot of light into the canopy. Maufacturers/ maintenance engineers tend to paint the nose and window areas black to reduce the amount of reflection and glare given by the sun.
One thing that I can see to possibly improve the model is to figure out a way to create a run-through cargo bay. (One where a smaller vehicle or similar package could go in through the front, and come out the back.) Either way, this plane is pretty cool.
The amount of stickers is a record for a technic set but I think the holder of the most stickers in one set is the Maersk Triple e it has over 120 stickers.
something for the verdict the bad stuff: the ailerons sometimes get stuck and when you land with it the wheels fall off the main gear and the front gear is also done with small la so that will go in when you land
Hey i need some advice. I have this model, got it on my birthday back in 2015. But unfortunely had not a good place to place it. So, was on the top of my wardrobe for a few years. Now i have a good place for it, but the power functions require a lot of effort to move (even with new batteries), and the flaps on the wings get easily stuck. I did a superficial dusting to it. Thoygh would you recommend me to take apart to clear the gears and wing action pieces? I love it to bits, and was hoping i hadn't have to disassemble it.
I had the same problem whith the 2015 crawler crane and I just tuck out the engine made sure it worked and made sure that all the gears Wear alighned so I know this is 1 year later but maby it was usefal
I think the reason that the bottom of the canopy is black is to mimic certain aircraft. Sometimes the have a small strip of black below the canopy to prevent glare
The stickers are alot better now for staying on as long as they aren't over any edges. Man I'm gonna buy two if I can afford, one for the parts and one for display.
@@pulsehiker You could check Lego’s Pick-a-brick for more common lost parts, and Bricklink for rarer ones if you want to finish it at any point. I did that for my Chiron; I was in a similar situation where I didn’t finish it when I bought it and ended up restarting it and finishing it with some help from bricklink for a number of lost parts.
Did have this, very liked, now i have it by pieces, when get it have been only 9 years old, yeah, it taked to build me ~2 days but i cant say its very hard to build
I would put lights in this to give it a better effect just shows the lack of what Lego don't put in but this is my opinion I looks like a great set I own mist of the big sets I'm buying this one next
i think the 42025 functions look a lot like the 9396 helicopter: cargo bay,rotors,pitch,winch,doors,wheels airplane : cargo bay rotors,flaps,cockpit,wheels and dont tell me they dont look like each other :P
The light on the rudder is the beacon or anti collision light. You only showed it and didnt say something about it. But ytill you are awesome i always check a set on your channel bedore i buy it.
I like this set but i wish that the tail section had panels to cover the holes. The model looks kind of unfinished the way it is. I'll probably still buy it.
What is your impression of the sticker quality? Are they the durable variety or the kind where each one will be curling up in five years? It looks like a great model with the decals but I wish Lego would find some longer-lasting glue/paper. (Incidentally, thank you for the great production value in your videos; real pleasure to watch.)
For a model with this many functions it's a bit disappointing that they missed a working rudder. especially seeing how they have everything else, even flaps.
UHH...Sariel, do you think this model is better than 9396? I know both sets probably have there own "coolness" factor, but I want to know your opinion. Which is better overall?
the canadian price is 14999 if this set is acutally 119.99. I figured this out by checking the price of 42008 in euros and it was 119.99. And it was 149.99 canadian. And Sariel what is ur rating on this set
Hi Sariel, how do you store or display huge sets such as this? All the glass display cabinets ive seen cant contain it. Storing them in the open needs dusting/cleaning every now and then. Keen to know how you maintain your legos. Thanks
Daphne Seffelaar Not at all, i do it too. I always build the a model and the b model and for every single set you get more pieces and: you get much better in lego building for every set you buy.
For a set this big its a shame it has so many stickers :/ i really want this set but i dont want the stickers falling off over time. i hated when my technic ferrari had all its stickers fall off from its shelf life.
i have heard and i want to know your experience do the LA and the mini LA have built in clutch mechanisum? Like when the nose of the plane opens you can see it bouncing. Sometimes you can even hear the gears make that horrible noise.
I feel like Lego skimped out on this set. I would've liked to see at least some clutch gears, it looks like the set includes none. The motors seem very flimsy, if I got one I'd beef it up some, and the stickers. I wish you could've gotten a better experience without the stickers, but it's not very colorful at all without them. That's just my personal opinion though.
You_just This doesn't have clutch gears... but doesn't need any! The linear actuators won't kill themselves and the propellers use a different way of being safe!
To bad the prop's don't give any thrust. Otherwise you could use them for other nice builds or hang to the ceiling bij a wire and let it fly it self in circles.
Hey I was wondering what you do after you've made the sets and done the reviews and also what you do after you review ones sent buy Lego for the review
Sariel's custom LEGO Technic creations you mean that mini drone-like thingy that fitted in the back of the IFV? oh and by the way, how did you make that? was it a kit? (not the IFV)
Sariel's custom LEGO Technic creations I think too. Crawler rc controller, but plane has many mechanisms and hardly building!! What do you think about it?
Engines on real planes are oval too. and the "wobbliness" is to simulate the torque of real engines (that also don't sit 100% absolutely still on real planes) so its quite accurate. The random black pieces scattered throughout lend to a livery of plane that is "used" and not brand new off the factory hangar. Over time, black streaks and spots form on all planes, so this idea from Lego is to emulate that.
Parts of the cockpit are black, because it reduces sunlight reflection that might annoy the pilots (or simply make it unbearable to fly).
Yessir, that's why space shuttles have a black nose to reject ems. overheating
10:35 That is kinda terrifying. It either be bopping it's head to beat or having a seizure.
The first lego technic set capable of having seizure? I'm sold!
The set’s taking backshots lmao
Thanks for this video! This is what our weekend will be like. My now 6 year old got this for his birthday after watching your video.
Wait this was 7 years ago and YT recomended me this 7 years later wow thank god I got recomended to you and not someone else
Thanks!
Finally a proper LEGO Technic plane!
I wish it were cheaper! To be honest, I'd have preferred it to have manually powered functions and not battery-ones. I never liked batteries-driven LEGO.
I hope there will be the same plane but without the power functions that raise the price!
I managed to get mine for £50 :)

Interesting...
What you never knew about planes...
One thing that I can see to possibly improve the model is to figure out a way to create a run-through cargo bay. (One where a smaller vehicle or similar package could go in through the front, and come out the back.)
Either way, this plane is pretty cool.
Great review! I like how you provided many CLOSEUPS of the various functions, and your video's lighting is excellent.
Thank you sir. But we all know that it's the hamster that makes the real difference ;)
It is certainly the hampster! :-)
finally...someone who builds like me... A HUGE PILE OF UNSORTED LEGOS!!
It's actually sorted in someway =))
I just realized how similar this plane resembled the real life "Dornier 228" Ferry Plane
Think the same colors, thats all
I think it’s more like a C-27A (9 years late comment)
The amount of stickers is a record for a technic set but I think the holder of the most stickers in one set is the Maersk Triple e it has over 120 stickers.

Great video thanks for taking the time to put it together!!!
Thank You!

Great review and great filming, you must be an expert!
MY SUBBOX IS NOW HAPPY!
The stickers are alot better now for staying on as long as they aren't over any edges. Man I'm gonna buy two if I can afford, one for the parts and one for display.
I agree.
12:38 The designers initials (Lars Krough Jensen) and presumably birth year.
I gave up on building this because the plastic bags a were not numbered
@@pulsehiker ? You could just dump everything on a table and pick stuff out.
@@superb334 the set is huge btw and i lost some of the one-of-a-kind pieces so i'll never end up finshing it
@@pulsehiker You could check Lego’s Pick-a-brick for more common lost parts, and Bricklink for rarer ones if you want to finish it at any point. I did that for my Chiron; I was in a similar situation where I didn’t finish it when I bought it and ended up restarting it and finishing it with some help from bricklink for a number of lost parts.
I recently got this and it took me about 13 to 14 hours to put it together and it is just amazing
Did have this, very liked, now i have it by pieces, when get it have been only 9 years old, yeah, it taked to build me ~2 days but i cant say its very hard to build
hey, the expert was eating on the job!
Congrats on 25,000 subcribers! :D
Thanks! Haven't really noticed when it happened :)
Awesome plane!!! Wish I had it the functionality that so detailed.
Looks very nice, although I'd prefer it without power functions, so it would be cheaper and I would be able to spend with pf's only if I wanted to.
I was hugely dissapointed because of this
thanks for these reviews you should make a more developed army aircraft based on this one
Awwww love the hamster hes cute.
I would put lights in this to give it a better effect just shows the lack of what Lego don't put in but this is my opinion I looks like a great set I own mist of the big sets I'm buying this one next
i think the 42025 functions look a lot like the 9396
helicopter: cargo bay,rotors,pitch,winch,doors,wheels
airplane : cargo bay rotors,flaps,cockpit,wheels
and dont tell me they dont look like each other :P
Do I see differential,gearbox and motor parts???!!
I don't know what you see but the parts list is here: www.bricklink.com/catalogItemInv.asp?S=42025-1
Oh now I know it's got power functions I might actually buy it!
another amazing review
Bro thank you so much I was scared that if my batteries run out I won’t be able to use it and have to destroy it then get the batteries out
The light on the rudder is the beacon or anti collision light. You only showed it and didnt say something about it. But ytill you are awesome i always check a set on your channel bedore i buy it.
Thanks. Pity they didn't put any LEDs in it.
Yeah its a pity but the set is awesome
Very nice review, thank You!
I like this set but i wish that the tail section had panels to cover the holes. The model looks kind of unfinished the way it is. I'll probably still buy it.
Awesome review

(Incidentally, thank you for the great production value in your videos; real pleasure to watch.)
I think the quality is decent, but there's no telling how long the stickers will last. I've seen finer print, too.
outstanding set i love it, i want it
also the engine is oval since there is an intake underneath the propeller
To będzie cudowny dawca części :D
id mount a couple of rods and call it an AC 130C xD
Sariel you should do a review of your top technic donor sets
Fam bubam man And how would that be different from regular reviews?
He sariel are You going to do a review of the New crawler 41999? I would love to see it. Thanks for the awesome previews :-)
Sorry, I don't have it. But there are plenty reviews of it already, I believe.
The only difference between the 41999 and the 9398 is that the 41999 has a winch and a different, heavier body,
Is there enough room to fit a power functions AAA battery box in the rear cargo bay?
I think so, but why do you need a second battery box?
Sariel's custom LEGO Technic creations To add marker and landing lights.
Andrew Deierlein Why not use the battery box that's already there?
Sariel's custom LEGO Technic creations True, kinda forgot about that.
I love this set
i built the plane a while ago and i cannot decide if i want to build the b model or just take it apart
I'm glad I bought this, I skipped a few instructions by mistake so I only hope best happens when I accidentally left out a few.
Mmm... That won't work out well. Especially if you were building the mechanisms.
It's been fine for a few weeks, so, looks good.
Kewl then.
Mmm. Okay :/
When can you review 42043!!! - Not for awhile I guess ( I am waiting anxiously )
DesignJunkie58 July, maybe.
For a model with this many functions it's a bit disappointing that they missed a working rudder. especially seeing how they have everything else, even flaps.
I know. It's a bummer
Your videos are awesome by the way How many lego technic model do you have?
Exactly zero.
UHH...Sariel, do you think this model is better than 9396? I know both sets probably have there own "coolness" factor, but I want to know your opinion. Which is better overall?
I'd say this set has cooler functions, but 9396 has better looks, more useful colors and the big rotor blades.
Great review. You did great. But one question: is this a mouse or a hamster?
A hamster.
cool review, think you would be doing the B model?
Yes, once the instruction for it is available.
I ordered this the day I saw the video. ;)
great review
the canadian price is 14999 if this set is acutally 119.99. I figured this out by checking the price of 42008 in euros and it was 119.99. And it was 149.99 canadian. And Sariel what is ur rating on this set
Well stuff costs more in Canada all around
good toy for kid i want many lego technic toy
I love this set is the number 42025
Well, do you think I put 42025 in the title purely by accident?
The mearsk triple e has about 150
the mouse is so cute
+1 Person Buying this set
wich one is better. LEGO Technic 9398 4x4 Crawler or this?
Definitely Crawler.
How well do technic figures fit in the cockpit? It looks as though they may fit.
They're only like 3 times too big.
wait if it was released in 2014? did you go to the future?
LOL😃
Hi Sariel, how do you store or display huge sets such as this? All the glass display cabinets ive seen cant contain it. Storing them in the open needs dusting/cleaning every now and then. Keen to know how you maintain your legos. Thanks
I don't. It gets disassembled the minute the video is done.
Why do u do that u can't keep it
We'll it looks cool and if u ever want to make it better and more powerful and even add shocks to tighten up the rear end
Like in a real plane
Daphne Seffelaar Not at all, i do it too. I always build the a model and the b model and for every single set you get more pieces and: you get much better in lego building for every set you buy.
For a set this big its a shame it has so many stickers :/ i really want this set but i dont want the stickers falling off over time. i hated when my technic ferrari had all its stickers fall off from its shelf life.
the old stickers from years ago never fell off (it was better when they were printed on) however the newer stickers are useless
Forget the stickers man! I've seen this plane stickers-free and I actually love it without them!
OctopuPilot Wow, Common sense. Thank You!
I don't put on stickers at all
i have heard and i want to know your experience do the LA and the mini LA have built in clutch mechanisum? Like when the nose of the plane opens you can see it bouncing. Sometimes you can even hear the gears make that horrible noise.
Of course they do, I thought everyone knows that.
Sariel's custom LEGO Technic creations i didnt know it. thank you
How many hamsters do you have???
--On the plus side, now you have a pilot, lol
I feel like Lego skimped out on this set. I would've liked to see at least some clutch gears, it looks like the set includes none.

You_just This doesn't have clutch gears... but doesn't need any! The linear actuators won't kill themselves and the propellers use a different way of being safe!
'too bulky for kids' box says 10-16, and who doesn't want a big plane, PS: yes, I know I'm late to comment.
Probably getting two copies to keep both models.
strange the instruction guide came as one hole booklet for me
I will save up and buy this !
Of all the sets available now which set should I get
+Angus Elmslie If you don't care about the price, get the 42043 truck.
So amazing cool
To bad the prop's don't give any thrust. Otherwise you could use them for other nice builds or hang to the ceiling bij a wire and let it fly it self in circles.
It's Lego. You can build your own propellers with these blades set at non-zero pitch.
can we change the pitch from these Propellors? that would be nice. But i can't see how..
Billy Bob Trueblood No, but - let me repeat - you can build your own propellers with the same blades.
Oke
which is kind of nice to see
wa , realize it's really good , I like and subscribe m , continues as its
Really cool!!!!!!!!!
Hey I was wondering what you do after you've made the sets and done the reviews and also what you do after you review ones sent buy Lego for the review
+SKULLSPLITA 27 I take them apart, of course.
Sariel's LEGO® Workshop ok I was just wondering if you kept the ones you likes , and also do u get to keep the ones sent by Lego for reviewing
SKULLSPLITA 27 Yes, I keep them but I take them apart.
Sariel's LEGO® Workshop wait , what will happen to the maus 😨
SKULLSPLITA 27 What Maus? I took it apart a while ago.
How does this compare with 9396, Better or Worse?
It doesn't. One is a plane, the other is a helicopter.
Are the power functions included in this set? I want to buy my younger brother this on his birthday ))
+THE RUSSIAN Yes, as shown in the video. There's a motor and a battery box. Batteries are not included.
Thank you! :)
Thank you
Hey have you ever tried putting a lego minifig in the cockpit? Does it fit?
Sorry, hard to say.
How come? It looks like they could fit perfectly with few modifications
***** And they will be too big.
Jak narazie to jest jedyny stet jaki zamiezam kupic w 2014 - slabo wyglada oferta na przyszly rok. Mam nadzieje ze dozuca wiecej setow pozniej.
Masz moze jakies informacje prasowe o dacie oficialnej premiery tego modelu ?
mar0ns 2014?
Sariel's custom LEGO Technic creations LOL chodzilo mi badziej o miesiac
now make a vehicle that fits in it, fully RC capable of course, like always. Consider it a challenge.
Challenge? I already made fully RC vehicles half this size.
Sariel's custom LEGO Technic creations you mean that mini drone-like thingy that fitted in the back of the IFV? oh and by the way, how did you make that? was it a kit? (not the IFV)
HDtoaster It wasn't a kit and you can read all about this model at my website.
Will this be available in lego stores in ALL of europe? (p.s. im greek)
Can't see why it wouldn't be.
Why is the background black and in every other video it's white? I like the black background
Because the set is white?
Sariel's LEGO® Workshop Well, there are many other white sets like the 42052. Why don't you use the black background on other sets?
Because I prefer the white one. More light, better image quality.
agreed, sometimes different sets need some contrast otherwise it would be hard to see the details, no?
€119,99 is actually not that expensive for a kit with all these functions...
I know all these kids complaining its too expensive lol i would buy this for $150 were it still out
i thing it need more light !!!
and what's the mouse name ??? !!!
it look so cute !!!
It's a hamster and his name is Noodle.
Czemu nie pokazałeś alternatywnych modeli?
Głównie dlatego że instrukcje do nich nie są jeszcze dostępne.
2014?i can't find it:(
I looked on lego's website and it wasn't there. How long has it been discontinued?
+K West No idea. Luckily, there's still the Bricklink.
The tail of the plane looks incomplete.
How did you get it if it is released in 2014
Got it from LEGO. You would know if you watched the video until the end.
Go to Bricklink.com
Sariel, what sets is better: 9398or42025??? Please answer.
Personally, I would go with 9398.
Sariel's custom LEGO Technic creations I think too. Crawler rc controller, but plane has many mechanisms and hardly building!! What do you think about it?
Lego King_5555 i think the crawler is better for playability but the cargo plane is better for more display. Both are good sets though
Evan Zachary What set is better? I can bye only one of this sets!
its hard decison but i would go with the crawler (9398)
Could you also show the B model
I will show the B model when there is instruction for it available.
i like this song :D
This or 42039? I will buy one of them, help me pls!?
+Khai Du 42039!
+Sariel's LEGO® Technic Den despite that they give a battery box and moter?
DaBrozFTW It's the cheapest motor of all and the battery box is even cheaper and very common.
