The Best LEGO Technic Sets of 2025
LEGO's shift towards adult-focused sets has blurred the lines between classic LEGO bricks and LEGO Technic, the system of rods, beams, pins, and gears used to create intricate mechanisms. Technic elements now often provide the robust internal structure for larger models, while traditional bricks form the aesthetically pleasing exterior. This reflects LEGO's ambition to create increasingly complex builds requiring a strong underlying framework. It's also introduced many LEGO fans to exciting new building techniques.
