Heavy Boy Truck VM-03

Some of the pieces were hard to push out

It was a birthday present for my grandson.
He absolutely loves it.
We like the way they are constructed and the way they can be propelled.
We have had U-gears products before and they are really good and some are very challenging.

Great model. Enjoyed putting it together. It won’t be the last model from Ugears that I buy!

Rien a dire ! Matériaux de qualités !

Pour la 9eme maquette réalisée cet hiver je suis toujours un retraité heureux, attention ce modèle demande beaucoup d'attention, il n'est pas plus fragile et compliqué que les autres il faut tout simplement suivre les instructions du fascicule a la lettre et le bonheur suit…

Did the truck and trailer awhile ago but did not do any review. The truck and trailer turned out great and was very happy how they turned out. I like how the trailer floor goes in and out, very neat. No parts missing and the instructions good.

Hello,
amazing model with many functional details. I spend lot of fun with assembling. Definetly the best wooden model I have built so far.
But the rubber bands are bad. They started to crack, after half year and the moving mechanism inside model is no longer functional.

Just finished this model and its trailer. Remarkable example of creativity, engineering, manufacturing, and wonderful instructions. You have a great team. Thanks for the hours of enjoyment!

Note for builders: on page 40 of heavy boy, you may find it much easier and more stable to do most of steps 4 and 5 before step 1. You may also use wax on the joints of delicate parts. Enjoy.

Ez a modell egyszerűen fantasztikus! Nagyon jól néz ki és élvezet volt összerakni. Nagyon jól megy, semmi hibája nincs. Imádom!

Estimados un gran modelo, es el tercero en mi colección y me esperan otros. Sin embargo en este caso no se por que el motor se traba y no logre su funcionamiento regular, pero bueno allí esta el desafío para el próximo.

Enjoyed this build. Usual good quality. This is the only model I allow my 5year old grandson to play with. I know, bad grandad. He uses lego men with the truck. The scale is really close and looks pretty cool

It's a good model but there is one main element that holds back up the other element from getting back to stop the releasing well at the end of the construction it broke because is so fragile.
And another thing that the lack of additional parts like element 21.

Awesome model. Incredible engineering, and to think all of this is made from thin sheets of plywood. Great product.

Love making these work. What a great way to spend time with my boyfriend.

Der lkw ist ein sehr schönes Modell. Ich saß bestimmt 3 Tage dran um ihn aufzubauen, was sich aber auch gelohnt hat. Wenn man jedes einzelne Zahnrad gründlich wachst, schafft er die versprochenen 5m locker. Nur die Gangschaltung klempt bei mir ein wenig. Um ihn umzustellen benötige ich daher immer ein Zange. Alles in allem jedoch, auch optisch, ein sehr gelungenes Modell, auch für jüngere bastler.

What do people do in lockdown who don't have a Ugear model truck! Made the bike as well, excellent models and even better instructions. The bit I found difficult was making elastic band loops to the nearest mm?

This is a great model to build and the 4th model I have done during lockdown, the others being, the trailer, pneumatic engine and the timer, all brilliant, don't know where to keep them all. Highly recommended

Bonjour.. Fan des maquettes ugears mais j ai un soucis ma femme m a acheté le camion pour Noël et a ma grande déception il manque les élastiques !! Comment dois je faire car elle l à acheter sur un marché de Noël

Very nice kit.

Looks really cool and the functions works.
One mistake in the manual where it says the panel behind the seats first and then the side panels. Other way around is working much better.
But anyway, a really good thing.

Thank you guys for such a great model and this great idea of those kits.
It would not be my last one.

I got the Tuck for christmas. Actually four days before and started building. It took me 4 evenings to build. The truck is doubting if it wants to start rolling because I think the engine is blocking it. The engine is not spinning. Page 25 was not really clear, it was the hardest part. Page 40 contains a bug, it says you need to wax but actually you need to cut. This truck is getting the best spot in my home office because it is an eye catcher. So much detail! And it was really nice to build. A good alternative for LEGO, maybe even better! Im thinking about a next project, but not sure yet which Ugears project is next! Any suggestions?

I got the Truck and the Trailer for Christmas.
I never heard of ugears before, i started building and finished both after 4 days, it made so much fun.
unluckily the Truck mechanisms arent working, i did something wrong, of course, but however its looking fantastic.
Its a hard model for the first time, i recommend to buy a smaller one first, you will buy more anyway... :D
now i got to go, i have to look which model i will buy next!

Very nice Object. Mechanics work good
