A few years in my #LEGO hobby, I’ve now built hundreds of sets from all themes and years. I picked some of them, but most were found at random and restored from loose parts bins I purchased off classifieds.

So it’s rare when I’m truly amazed by a specific model, but I’ve been impressed by the 70614 Ninjago Lightning Jet set from 2017. The model is extremely voluminous for the number of parts, with an original friction wheel system activated by a finger trigger.

Pictures don’t do it justice, so here’s a short animation demonstrating the rotating wheel in action. (~10 MB)
