New Price Drop: LEGO Technic Planet Earth and Moon in Orbit 42179

Was $74.99, Now $59.99 at Amazon

The Planet Earth and Moon in Orbit 42179 set is a compact yet impressive model, measuring 9" high, 12.5" long, and 7" wide. Comprising 526 pieces, it's a manageable build that can be completed in just a few hours. But the fun doesn't stop once you've finished assembling it.

What sets this LEGO kit apart is its interactive design. Once built, you can turn the handle to witness four types of movement: (1) the Earth rotates on its axis, (2) the sun rotates on its axis, (3) the moon orbits the Earth, and (4) the Earth orbits the sun. It's not only captivating to watch but also serves as an educational tool. Kids can learn about the mechanics of a crankshaft while gaining insights into how the positions of the moon and sun relative to Earth correspond to different months, seasons, and moon phases. Given its educational value and interactive features, this set offers exceptional value compared to many other LEGO sets that lose their appeal once built.
