Bartelas Posted May 28, 2018 (edited) Regarding their choice of color for the exterior: The complete backside should be darkblue (apart from the grids which are already black) as well as the front fender, which is black in this set for whatever reason. I have checked this issue with multiple pictures of the real car (even from their website) and the color black is literally only used in grids throughout the car. Any Ideas why Lego chose black over darkblue? Edited May 28, 2018 by Bartelas Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Didumos69 Posted May 28, 2018 When looking at the side inage of the model, I still think the nose is too long and I think the use of those fender panels in the front make the hood look too flat. Nevertheless, I still like the whole model a.lot. I fear my budget for next year will be spent this year . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aol000xw Posted May 28, 2018 So any clue if it is Technically superior or at least not as flawed as the Porsche? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

StudRobotics Posted May 28, 2018 Can someone give me a link to the box inside pictures or is that not allowed? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SheldonF Posted May 28, 2018 No leaks allowed on the forums. Period. There are other websites like Facebook and Reddit which have these, so try looking there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lipko Posted May 28, 2018 (edited) Interesting that the proportions seem very similar to Leviathan's MOC, yet there are more complains about the proportions his model that the TLG model... Edited May 28, 2018 by Lipko Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I believe the original complaint was with the A-pillars / roof. He changed that and everyone seemed pretty happy with his MOC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Milan Posted May 28, 2018 Ok, we are going to have a short break. Please do not carry the Chiron discussion to the 2018 topic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Posted May 28, 2018 Thanks Milan I have unlocked the topic again. Please refrain from asking for pictures! Other discussions are okay, of course. Carry on!

I can assure that it’s not a marketing trick. The plan was to have NO leaks before the 1st of June, and they did a pretty good job. Some unexpected events in planning/logistics occured (can’t tell details) which eventually lead to the leaks from official LEGO stores. Some employees definitely need to go look for another job.

Ascius Posted May 28, 2018 Quite sad, but I guess it's impossible for everyone to sign an NDA so they'd be liable. Especially the employees of the stores, but even so, they did manage to keep for so long, in general sense I'd say it was success. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Enantiomeer Posted May 29, 2018 I'm taking Friday off and getting this set. I MUST have those new orange gear selector wheels. Put several on a long axle and you can make synchronous switching of several functions/motors possible in a simple way. I'm thinking this can be a nice way to switch between normal and crab steering for multi-axle vehicles. On the down side, why blue gears? And why brown 8L axles or orange bushes and 3L pin (Yeah, I know, they're not new, but I don't have any of those yet)? AAARGHHH I'm running out of storage bins already!!!

This - at least - would explain, why the series of leaked pictures suddenly stopped. After the first pictures of the building process, I would have expected more leaks like that. But nothing happend anymore.... Three more days to go ..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ngoc Nguyen Posted May 29, 2018 Or even the whole staff at that local store. Cant trust anyone these days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
