So, Uwe Wabra (W4 BR4) did the 8071.

edit : hum, not sure.

"AP" match also with Alfred Petersen.

And the way this 8071 is built is very similar to Alfred's design.

Thus, the W4 BR4 is misleading.

I really like the design on the front of that cherry picker. Also, white beams aren't all that common if I'm not mistaken.

Pro'lly isn't the real one, if you look at this picture I posted, the railing for the bucket is flex tube, not joints and pins. There are all kinds of other differences too, for example, the white plate at the base of the crane on the "fake" one.

But then again it does have a TLC stamp on it, so I don't know.

It looks like modded reverse-engineered 8071 (check out lifting arms on both pics). Or maybe it is just a prototype?

Also the front is slightly different...

I'm convinced that the picture posted by Legolijntje is a fake!

1st: The paneling is wrong, Stickers are a nice but oh so wrong "own version".

2nd: A prelim stamp is easily made!

3rd: The photoshop on this picture is a shabby job!

There are far more better version made by AFOLS:

Check this one made by Cypr-21 of SetTechnic:

Or this one made by Barman:

If it's fake there won't be a problem with the posting of unauthorized Prelim pictures...

So just leave it!

a bit off topic but what do ye mean when ye say afols?also also what does people mean by mibs or something on new sets unopened?

I'll definitely get the Unimog, and probably the Cherry Picker since it is really interesting to me and the white pieces are kinda rare. I may get the Flatbed Truck some time later if I'm kind of bored, though I have much bigger sets to save up for both Technic and non-technic (Modular Houses, and I want to get the Imperial Flagship and the Black Pearl in the fall). The Extreme Cruiser is already out here, but I'm not interested in it at all.
