The Full Take
The Digger is a City polybag that gets its own assignment right: small, recognizable construction vehicle, one worker minifig, done. At 21 pieces it's not trying to impress a builder, but the proportions are solid enough that it doesn't embarrass itself on a shelf next to bigger City sets. The price grade drags the overall score down hard — polybags at inflated retail rarely justify themselves when a few more dollars gets you something with real heft. That said, the B- love grade tells you something: the set is likeable, just not loveable. It's the kind of thing that works as a stocking stuffer or a desk toy, not a centerpiece. The C- on value retention is par for the course with licensed-retail polybags — they don't tend to hold or grow after retirement.
