LEGO City 4200 Mining 4 x 4

LEGO City set 4200, “Mining 4 x 4”, depicts an off-road vehicle connected with a mining setting. Released in 2012 under the Construction branch, it contains 102 pieces and includes 1 miner minifigure.

Its subject is not a building or a large site machine, but a compact utility vehicle intended to support a mining scene.

The build uses 102 pieces and keeps the focus on a small vehicle with a clear role. The included minifigure is listed as “Miner, Dark Red Flannel Shirt, Mining Hat, Goatee Beard and Goggles”. The character’s dark red flannel shirt, mining hat, goatee beard and goggles define the occupational setting without needing a larger structure.
