Description
City Construction Truck Building Blocks
Build your own construction truck, one tiny detail at a time. This collection has four trucks to choose from: a Pillar Car Truck, a Mounted Drilling Rig Truck, a Skip Loader Truck and a Rear-tilting Dump Truck. Each one is made from mini ABS plastic blocks and builds into a desk-sized model with parts that really move.
They look great on a desk, shelf or bedroom display, and make a thoughtful gift for anyone who loves trucks, machines and building things by hand.

Frequently asked questions
How many pieces are in each truck?
The Pillar Car Truck has 259 pieces, the Mounted Drilling Rig Truck 272, the Skip Loader Truck 267 and the Rear-tilting Dump Truck 267.
How big is the finished truck?
A finished truck is about 17.5 to 22 cm long, depending on the model. That is small enough to sit on a desk or shelf.
What are mini blocks?
Mini blocks are smaller than standard bricks. That lets a truck with around 260 to 270 pieces build into a compact model with plenty of detail.
Do the parts move?
Yes. The boom arm moves on the Pillar Car Truck and the Mounted Drilling Rig Truck, the skip container moves on the Skip Loader Truck and the tipper bed moves on the Rear-tilting Dump Truck.
What are the blocks made of?
The blocks are made of ABS plastic, a hard-wearing plastic that is also used for many well-known building brick sets.
What age are the trucks for?
We list these sets as suitable for ages 10 and up. The pieces are small, so younger builders should build with an adult. They are not suitable for children under 6 years old.
Can adults build these too?
Yes. Many buyers build them as desk or shelf display pieces, and the compact size makes them a relaxing evening project.
Are the trucks sold as a set or one at a time?
Each truck is sold separately. Choose the truck you want from the options above. You can order several in one go to build a whole work site.
How much does each truck cost?
Every truck in the Construction Truck collection is R340.
Do you deliver across South Africa?
Yes. We ship across South Africa by courier, and orders over R700 ship free.
