The Mixer is a Lego version of The Scrambler. Out of the box, when cranked by hand, the ride moves its seats around and around. But you can also buy a motor for it. It has 1746 pieces and currently costs about $150 on Lego's website. It consists of two trucks, the Mixer attraction built on one of the truck beds, and lots of fun carnival games. Let's build it!
Yes sir, that's a whole lot of building to do. Aside from the Millennium Falcon (which was 7964 pieces), this is the largest Lego model I have built.
We haven't even started building and already the people are "piecing themselves together" to come to the fair. The set includes 12 minifigures to populate your scene.
The first thing we build is the smaller of the two trucks. This truck will carry all of the carnival games.
This one is ready for hauling!
Then we build the games. Use a mallet to hit the striker and watch the marker go all the way to the bell! And you can even drop a minifig into the dunk tank!
Next up, we built the big semi truck that will carry the Mixer. The base of the Mixer is actually the back of the truck.
Lots of building. When we return we will work on the ride itself!
