Everyone's favorite toy company, Lego, has joined forces with Mercedes-Benz to offer fans a scale model of the automaker's highly innovative construction truck: the Arocs 3245. Now available as a part of the Lego Technic range, the miniature truck features detailed components from the ground up that will leave even the most skeptical Mercedes fan utterly impressed.

When Lego made the decision to create a scale model of the Mercedes-Benz Arocs 3245, they also made a pact to do everything possible to insure it was made to the best of their ability. In order to get the model just right, the company took a trip to the headquarters of Mercedes-Benz Trucks and visited the assembly line for an up-close look at the construction truck. From what they learned at the facility, they were then able to replicate the Arocs 3245, creating a mini model measuring 12 inches in height, 21 inches in length and 5 inches in width. Complete with real-working components, the truck comes with the Pneumatics 2.0 system, along with pumps, four-axle suspension, a turntable element and an outrigger element. Take a look at the video below to see some of its functions in action.
