"The 4x4 Off-Roader's BrickScore of 55.4 reflects a genuine critical split: impressive Technic engineering under the hood sits alongside a color scheme and body design that one of the two reviewers found hard to overlook, and with no owner data to weigh in, this earns a Skip It verdict for most buyers."
The 4x4 Off-Roader (8466) is a set that divides its two reviewers significantly: JANG rated it 75 with a positive lean, praising the rugged toy-scale appearance and engineering features for young builders, while the Brickset reviewer gave it just 35 and catalogued a litany of aesthetic shortcomings. There are no owner ratings to help resolve the split. The resulting BrickScore of 55.4 earns it a Skip It tier, and the honest read is that its strong mechanical credentials cannot fully overcome a color scheme and body design that many find unattractive.
Where they split: Reviewer disagreement here is substantial and drives the Skip It verdict. JANG scored it 75 with a positive tone, focusing on kid-friendly ruggedness and the engineering achievements. The Brickset reviewer gave it 35 and focused on the unattractive metallic green color, poor panels, and awkward proportions. With agreement rated moderate and no owner data to arbitrate, this split is the defining feature of the set's critical reception.

"I think that a lot of young kids would be very very proud to have this vehicle because it does have that very rugged look."
