The gray 20t idler gera for the left LA is on the right, and the gear for the right LA is on the left. .... Indeed, interesting. I did not know this either.

Ngoc Nguyen Posted July 5, 2018 I dont think anyone would have expected the video to be deleted to download it beforehand, since it's already near the release date. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JimDude Posted July 5, 2018 I'm a bit disappointed that the rope doesn't extend or roll back together with the boom. I know this is also the case on my beloved 42009, but because of thanks to this forum, I understood this was not the case on its' predecessor, so it had to be possible. It also doesn't look as if the outriggers will actually lift the crane (not that I was really expecting it, but the (box-art-)pictures do sort of suggest it). And yet, I haven't looked forward to a set as much as I'm looking forward to this one in ages (the obvious dark-ages joke will be left to the reader).

lukaszpicur Posted July 5, 2018 (edited) Looks like there already is a video on YT showing the crane in all its glory. I really like what I’ve seen. Size seems to be impressive. Also, for some reason, this red color really fits it in my eyes. Not gonna post the link, but should be easy enough to find. Just sort by upload date :) Edited July 5, 2018 by lukaszpicur Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nerdsforprez Posted July 5, 2018 Easy enough to find. Thanks for sharing. Wont write a ton about it at this point in time, but overall I like it. IMO, I actually think the functions are fairly smooth. Fairly generic functions for a mobile crane, but they work about as well as can be expected. I think I heard a lot of either actual observations, or perhaps it was just speculation, that the outriggers actually lift the vehicle. From the video, it does not appear that they can. Can someone verify/correct me? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The BWE is understandable as it does a whole hell of a lot, but a model like this - much less so. I like all the extra features and build techniques but 42082 just seems huge for the sake of huge. I'm not denying that it's mighty impressive, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim Posted July 6, 2018 Look for JB Spielenwaren. I'm having a discussion about this on the Ambassador Network. I does save me from making my own video Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maaboo35 Posted July 6, 2018 Notably, the music on the 42082 video is a piece called "Redwood Trail" rather than the usual Technic soundtrack for this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why do you think it's huge for the sake of being huge? I'm not sure I agree. There's a ton of stuff going on, in the chassis and in the upper body. Of course, choosing the Unimog tires will result in a big model. But I am not sure they could have done the same with 42009 tires.

Video is also way too long, so it seems to be original footage with a different background music. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TLG could have picked something more off-the-wall like the BWE. At least the B-model is something new. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
