fischertechnik is reaching new heights with its latest marble run. Pulling on the chain at the lower end of the course sets the upper seesaw in motion. The marble races downwards across a hurdle track – but which route will it take? The crossover means it will be a surprise. Then things get spectacular: The marble free falls into the funnel and makes its way further down the course via steep curves. Various hurdles and chicanes need to be overcome before reaching the collection platform. A ramp launches the marble up into the air. 

Once it has arrived at the bottom, the new Easy Elevator lift system transports the marble back to the top. It is either powered manually by chain or through an additional motor. The spring-loaded belt pulley provides even tension to the belt, ensuring failsafe operation. Great heights can therefore be surmounted within just a few seconds. A reflective sticker set provides the right decorations: thunderbolts, arrows and other motives turn the set into a unique glow-in-the dark run. 
But the main attraction of fischertechnik’s Hanging Action Tower isn’t just the marble run itself: a small platform is installed behind the tower, which a vacuum pad is applied to. This firmly and securely attaches the marble run to shelves, tables or wardrobes. The fast-paced run is therefore not just fun, but also truly eyecatching. 

Three models can be built with the Hanging Action Tower construction kit, which contains 777 components and is suitable for children aged 8 and up. Those who want to give the setup a go can use the printed instruction manual.
