Photorealistic image of a Lego Dam Technic set box with the built model, featuring a grey dam and blue water flows.

This LEGO Technic set is designed for builders aged 12 and up and contains approximately 700 intricately designed pieces. The front of the box prominently features a detailed and realistic model of a functioning gravity dam — a marvel of miniature engineering built with LEGO Technic components. The dam structure itself is built primarily from stone grey LEGO bricks, giving it the appearance of heavy concrete walls typical of real-world hydroelectric dams. At the top of the dam, there are several transparent blue bricks representing water reservoirs, with streams of blue “water” visibly flowing out through sluice gates positioned near the middle and bottom of the structure. What makes this model particularly engaging is the inclusion of small, intricate mechanical components—true to the Technic series—located along the sides and back of the dam. These parts form an operational mechanism that allows the user to open and close the gates manually or via a gear system, simulating water release for flood control or hydroelectric power generation. The box design is modern and clean, with a white background that makes the model pop visually. On the top left corner, the familiar red LEGO logo is placed, and beside it, in bold black or grey lettering, is the simple, striking name: “Dam”. Overall, the packaging emphasizes both the educational engineering aspect and the hands-on mechanical features, making it an attractive and sophisticated build for older kids and adult LEGO fans See more
