Alternate Models Challenge - 60061 Airport Fire Truck

[Cecilie]

Eurobricks and Rebrickable were challenged by LEGO® to make alternate models for current year city sets. The builds had to only use the pieces in available in the official LEGO model, be made in LDD, digitized, tested in real brick and be a model a 7-10 year old could build.

I received set 60061 "Airport Fire Truck".

I found this set to be quite difficult to work with, especially because of the lack of normal 1xN bricks in red, but it was a fun challenge

Here are my alternate models:

Food truck

The truck is equipped with an oven that might be turned up a bit too much

Food Trucks are always a welcome sight!

I was the one from Rebrickable to receive this set.

My alternate is an excavator:

It can rotate its upper structure, and raise, lower, open or close the bucket. It's pretty fun to play around with.
