The newest Creator Expert set, Ferris Wheel ( Lego 10247) , has been officially presented in New York, at the Time to Play event. The official pictures and the Designer Video show also a bunch of incredible details that weren’t so clear in the couple of pictures that appeared previously in internet.
Gladly, it allows the possibility of adding power functions which will definitely turn this set even more interesting (the back side of the set box indicates two additional sets, the Power Functions M-Motor – 8883 and the AAA Battery Box -88000).
With almost 2500 pieces, it will start retailing this month with a retail price around the two hundred dollars. Enjoy the extended gallery and the designer video.
