Rolando Posted January 18, 2017 Posted January 18, 2017 Here is a short video of my xerion. Mudguards are still missing (I've run out of parts) Quote
evortigosa Posted January 29, 2017 Posted January 29, 2017 (edited) CLAAS looks so beautiful. Technic sets has been greatly well designed. As before mentioned, "with almost 2000 parts, it would definitely have qualified as a flagship a couple of years ago". Really nice review, by the way. Edited January 29, 2017 by evortigosa Quote
Dafgek81 Posted February 5, 2017 Posted February 5, 2017 Spoiler I got this set a week ago for my birthday, what a great set, hope to make it RC in the future!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote
J_C Posted March 11, 2017 Posted March 11, 2017 As typical late adopter and someone who is not willing to pay nowhere near RRP I found "my" price and got one. It is terrific set, selection of parts is so wide, it will be great and great for C-models (most of the time my main criterium for Technic purchase decision ), build is interesting, lots of clever solutions, and it looks magnificient and all the functions work fine and smoothly. I disagree strongly with the mostlypresent sentiment about the crane. I think it is cleverly designed crane. Especially considering it is "just" an attachement not the main model (the tractor is). Well, anyway, if you do not have one, get it. Simple as that. Quote

So a set of 2000 parts will take around 8 hours. With numbered bags, this time might be less, so more parts per hour. Building this set took three evenings I guess. Sorry for bumping topic everyone but I wanted to add. It took me 8-9 hours for the tractor and crane. Third favorite set( 1 42000, 2 42039, 3 42054.) So complex and learned more great techniques.

I was also very impressed with it and the build techniques, I also learned new things from the build. My favorite set is the 42009 , Mobile Crane followed by the 42042 Crawler Crane. I did not think I would like this set as much as I did. I have to agree with Jim (thanks for the great review) but this is really nice. Interesting techniques and functions. Strange thing, I got 5 tires (only 4 rims, but 5 tires). Andy D Quote

Aventador2004 Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 How did you get 5 tires? A cool spare wheel. I actually just got one. Took 3 days and not complete yet (crane). Quote

Aventador2004 Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 Actually working on the crane right now. Quote
Erik Leppen Posted April 23, 2017 Posted April 23, 2017 To be honest I liked the snowplow more than the crane. The crane looks unfinished, and the PTO vertical adjustment seems a bit useless. For the plow it makes much more sense. But yes, the set is really great. Quote

Aventador2004 Posted April 23, 2017 Posted April 23, 2017 Yes, definitely more for grass or plowing. Quote
Ngoc Nguyen Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 Well, the name already says "Silage Plow", not "Snow Plow". Silage is fermented hay. Quote
Spooky Posted August 9, 2017 Posted August 9, 2017 I just finished this set and omg..its unbelievable..looks like real.. Quote
Aventador2004 Posted October 3, 2017 Posted October 3, 2017 Hi, sorry for bumping topic, but when disassembling, I found something odd. Did anyone notice it says there are 10 6l axles, but only 8 are in the set? Quote

I have completed 4 big lego technic sets , everytime exactly the same number of pieces came with the box ok maybe more but not less.. Quote

Several years ago when there were introduction of smooth axle joiners I got in one set both smooth and rigid...both this https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=6538c#T=C and this https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=6538b#T=C Problem is when you miss something Edited October 3, 2017 by I_Igor Quote

I literally flipped through all the pages of the PDF and counted them up to 10. It seems that you must have assembled incorrectly or lost them in disassembly. Edited October 3, 2017 by ukbloke Quote
