LEGO Technic Power Function Accessory box Add even more power to your LEGO Technic creations!

Requires six “AA” batteries, not included. 10 pieces.
Customer Review: Ditto: add this to your Lego 8294
I prefer not to motorize my Lego sets, but in this case I think the Power Functions accessory set is a necessity. The new linear actuators that come with the excavator require a lot of tiresome winding. The PF motor and switch make the excavator a much more capable and fun toy. It is too bad that at MSRP this accessory set is half the cost of the excavator, but it is still worth it.
Customer Review: A must have for the 8294 excavator
The Power Functions kit #8293 is a must have for the 8294 Excavator. The kit transforms the excavator into a real scale functioning excavator (I own real heavy equipment myself), which can actually dig dry sand, sifted loam, and we attached a small jewelry chain to it and it can lift things like Transfomers Bumblebee and some surprisingly heavy objects just like a real excavator does! So dont hesitate to get one of these. The motor is tiny, but is surprisingly powerful and also this kit has a nice quality switch that replicates a real hydraulic lever and also comes with accessory LED lights which snap right on easily and look sano. The Design of the battery box and the excavator is well done, it mounts underneath the tracked undercarriage and it lowers the center of gravity of the excavator, which increases its stability. Expensive, but worth the dough.
