Impressive and really big! -
[MOC] Kamaz 8x8 Arctic truck

Eh yes, I was also looking for some orange bars to simulate ladders/handrails... in the end I could only add those bars on the roof, just a small touch of orange. -
[MOC] Kamaz 8x8 Arctic truck

Thanks! I hope somebody, one day, will be able to build a bigger version, with full suspensions and maybe some motorozed functions, I know there are many talented mocers out there -
[MOC] Kamaz 8x8 Arctic truck
mpj posted a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
When I saw the Kamaz 8x8 Arctic truck for the first time, I thought is could be a perfect subject for a Lego Technic moc. The truck is an 8x8 articulated hauler, with a tipping bed and a small crane. My model uses 56mm tractor tyres, so it is more or less in minifigure scale. Functions: - 8x8 with fake engine - articulated steering with HoG - rear pendular suspensions - tipping bed - operating crane It is not super detailed as it should be, but for the scale I think it is enough. Instructions are available on Rebrickable: https://reb.li/m/177379 -
[MOC] Iveco T-Way Tipper 8x4

... panel curved 3x13 on the front-top ot the tipper, to simulate the tarpaulin... Let's end the discussion here. -
[MOC] Iveco T-Way Tipper 8x4
mpj replied to Ngoc Nguyen's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I was referring to the Rebrickable model, not the thread itself, which is just my motorized mod of the Rebrickable one. You did not mention it at all. We both made an Iveco T-way so that's possible that many parts are similar, that's not the point. But it is clear (you have my instructions) that there was an inspiration to make your model, and it is sad that it is not stated in your description. The dual wheels on the rear axles using 49.5 x 14 wheels look like it is your own idea! I'm not saying I'm the only one using them... but hey... Fuel tank, hydraulic tank, spare wheel, ad-blue tank, mudguard design... -
[MOC] Iveco T-Way Tipper 8x4
mpj replied to Ngoc Nguyen's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
It is very sad to see that you did not mention another Iveco T-way as a reference for your model. In the past, after purchasing the instructions of my model, you asked me to publish a revised version with openable cab doors (I allowed you to publish the cab mod instructions, and not the whole model). Now I see you made a new model and that's ok, but the similarities are obvious, so I did expect you mention me, at least. The way you describe some features of your model (which are taken from mine) is simply not polite. That said, I like you version and the only bad point is the very limited tilting angle. -
42161 Lamborghini Huracán Tecnica
mpj replied to R0Sch's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I agree with you, and it is surely a marketing strategy to sell both colors, instead of chosing only one. The second color version was actually a limited edition for the blue fiat 500, and now it's really hard to find, but I think the blue bugatti is not a limoted edition and it's s actually sold at the same price as the yellow one. -
[MOC] Dressta 530R Extra

Cool little scale model! It's a pity it has not been frontpaged. -
[MOC] Volvo FH Aero 62 pusher Tractor
mpj replied to Sebeus I's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
You were fast, the real truck has been shown on 29th January, but if you had the chance to see it before the official release, then you were lucky I like the overall look, even if I prefer the Technic style than the system style, especially those exposed studs on the side walls. Surely with system bricks you can make better details! I see there are still "technicprojects-style" headlights there -
[CADA] CADA General Discussion Topic
mpj replied to Milan's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Remembering the good old times in which we were waiting for the toy fair to see the Lego Technic summer news by live... -
Hello people! I want to start showing you some of my latest models, it's quite a lot of time I don't share them here. This is an Iveco T-Way, full RC with PU motors and hub, controlled via Brickcontroller2 and a Joypad. It is equipped with suspensions on all axles (pendular on the front axles and pendular in 2 directions on rear axles). The drive motor is directly connected to rear axles (it "moves" together with the third axle). Stickers are self made. This model is a mod of my original static model, in grey and black version, which features Hog steering, rear pendular suspensions, fake engine and tipping body. Instructions available here: https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-121004/technicprojects/iveco-t-way/#details

Technic 2024 Set Discussion
mpj replied to Ngoc Nguyen's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
A lot of cars then... no problem if they will bring us more mini panels in new colors... The only one I'm interested is the Volvo set. And at a reasonable price tag. -
Technic 2024 Set Discussion
mpj replied to Ngoc Nguyen's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
This sounds very interesting. The word "cargo" suggests it might be a truck that carries the excavator, not a tipper truck. Let's wait and see. I hope it will not be too expensive (=below 200 Euro) -
Looking forward to see the progress on the Mack!
