“The universal set from the Lego Technic series is a typical set for beginners. A total of five simple models which offer hardly any functions can be built from this. Due to the potential variety (on the box there are more models that can be built from this set), it gets... More three stars in the overall rating.”

“Except for the windmill, the models are pretty homogenous, and none of them display much in the way of technical complexity. In fact, only 4 gears are included in the set and they are only used for steering, again except for the windmill. The models are, however, an... More excellent introduction to the concept of building with beams, and the new friction pin connectors are used extensively.”

About Technic Universal

Universal is a subtheme of Technic that consists of 19 sets that as of now ran from 1982 to 1994. As of today, 8094 Control Centre is the most valuable set in Technic Universal with an estimated new/factory sealed value of $702.59.

TECHNIC is one of The LEGO Company's main lines based on creating detailed model machines and mechanical toys with specialized beams, axles, gears and connectors and primarily designed for older children and adults. The theme was first introduced as the Expert Builder series in 1977, but was officially renamed as TECHNIC in 1984. TECHNIC is still an active theme, and is one of the longest running themes in LEGO history. While most TECHNIC sets are vehicles that use pieces to mimic real vehicles, such as engine pieces, suspension, pneumatic, and transmission pieces, the TECHNIC parts have been used by various other System themes as well as LEGO Mindstorms.
