Read the thread and You'll find answers HMAN.

And please STOP doubleposting. There's an EDIT button top right of your messages - push it and edit your post instead :|

Anyways I like the crane - the size seems just right for a skyscraper :oD As for the truck. I think it resembles the Ferrari Scudera Truck - so like it or not we might be seeing future trucks than can interchange hangers /trailers and this would be something to look forward to - a cargo/freight truck stop :oD :oD

The bridge is definitely compatible with Lego trains - it says the word "Zug" in the blurb next to the photo, which translated into english is "train"!!!

I like both sets. Espeacially the crane. Tomy knowledge, there's never been a tower crane of any sort till now.

The truck with bridge will also net some cool possiblites. Namely trailers. a custom flat bed trailer used to hall 7248 tractor maybe? ;) Or even a cement mixer trailer. Should be sweet!

1) I'm going to be bankrupt in 2 seconds after these sets come out.

2) Is it just me, or are the sets getting more and more oversized?! First it was 4 stud-wide trucks, then 6 studs, now 8 studs is becoming a trend. If this continues there won't be a "Minifig" scale CITY... :oo *wacko*

Actually, the newer sets are more in scale with minifigs, the trucks etc. from the eighties look far too small to be real. I was exstatic about the crane though, what a big b that is. Love the way the jib is going to work. This will finally mean a realistic way to transfer train carriages to track.

Wait a minute, use the bridge transport as a train transport (by road), and then the crane the move from truck to track. Hey hey. :biggrin:
