Oh my god, i yearned for that set so hard, but never got it. I got the tractor and the crane which I built with my daughter more than 40 years after my dad gave them to me. That was weird and comforting at the same time.

But maybe if you want to sell more you must have instructions that anyone can follow?

Those sets were marketed as 'Expert Builder' in the USA, so maybe the challenge was part of the point?

The 1980s is where LEGO instructions peaked. It all went downhill from there.
