Its slightly-less-complicated, brick-based older brother might get most of the LEGO love, but the Technic line of LEGOs opens up a whole new world of possibilities filled with differentials, pulleys, electric motors, suspensions, linkages and complex gearing systems. Those types of component parts become essential when expert Technic builders are creating things like supercars, construction equipment, monster trucks and watercraft. Those creations are the focus of Incredible LEGO Technic, Pawel “Sariel” Kmiec’s compendium of the world’s best fan-created LEGO Technic models. In addition to all of the cool models, the book includes design notes and breakaway views of all of the mechanisms contained within. It’s plastic engineering at its finest.
