Junpei Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 (edited) I was looking on S@h at 42009, and I saw that it says: Also includes a rotating superstructure, 8-wheel drive, 5 axles, 10 wheels and a detailed V8 motor with moving pistons, and 8882 LEGO Power Functions XL-Motor. What's up with that? It seems pretty deliberate to be a mistake. Edited August 2, 2013 by TwentyLeggedHen Quote
Kwon Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 42009 include L motor... there will be mistake. Quote
Tubby Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 (edited) Definitely a L-Motor! Yep, I had it in my hand last night while I was looking through the box, the L motor that is Edited August 2, 2013 by Tubby Quote
dr_spock Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 Interesting. I found that the product description writer for the website also made a mistake in the product description for the Friend's Mia Magic Tricks set. Website says coins, cups, scarves included with the accessories but they are not in the set when I bought it. I think the original set design plan was to have them. Along the way it was changed and no one passed the info to the marketing department. Quote

What's up with that? It seems pretty deliberate to be a mistake. The XL motor is not the only mistake. It is not 8 wheel drive either. 8 wheel steering, 2 wheel drive. Quote
Junpei Posted August 2, 2013 Author Posted August 2, 2013 Oh yeah, you're right. It's funny because Lego described 42005 Monster Truck as: with extreme 4-wheel suspension, all-wheel drive, flame detailing and monster-size rubber wheels! and it doesn't even have any wheels driven! Quote

Yeh I read that and thought it was dodgy Quote
N-4K0 Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 LOL, I didn't even notice these mistakes until now. Quote
BobSmithHello55 Posted August 26, 2013 Posted August 26, 2013 Is it possible to use an M-motor? L-motors were made to fill the gap between the M and L. But does this model really need an L? Quote
EyesOnly Posted August 26, 2013 Posted August 26, 2013 Probably but why do you ask? Are you planning to build it with your own parts? I mean if you buy the set you get a L-motor so no need for a substitute. Quote
Phoxtane Posted August 26, 2013 Posted August 26, 2013 I wouldn't. Lifting the crane boom seems to be a lot of work, even for the L-motor. Great set by the way. Mine came last Friday and I had a blast building it! Quote
