LEGO Technic Monster Jam Grave Digger 42118 | 2-in-1 Pull-Back Monster Truck

Bring the World of Monster Jam to Life

Meet the LEGO Technic Grave Digger 42118, a 2-in-1 set designed for curious builders ages 7 and up. The main Grave Digger model includes a pull-back motor that delivers quick, responsive action across tabletops and floor spaces, offering tactile, battery-free play. When you’re ready for a fresh challenge, rebuild the model into an off-road buggy for a new build-and-play experience that stretches imagination and craft skills.

Authentic details that spark imagination

The graphics showcase ghostly imagery and fiery accents, complemented by oversized tires, a movable flag, and red headlights that echo the real truck’s presence. The model measures over 4 in high, 9.5 in long (with flag), and 4 in wide, giving a compact yet sturdy silhouette on display or during play. With 212 pieces, the assembly feels rewarding and tangible, encouraging careful handling and deliberate building steps.

Two builds, one adventure

The 2-in-1 design unlocks two distinct play experiences from a single set: a Grave Digger monster truck and a rebuildable off-road buggy. This versatility invites experimentation, storytelling, and extended play sessions as kids imagine stunts, races, and custom terrains, all powered by creative problem-solving.
