Build The Impossible

[nico71]

Hello, 

I am proud today to present you a teaser of a big project we have done with Lego brand ! We can not reveal details before the official release in mid-october but I would just say it was months of works and that we are exciting to show you ! :-)

From Left to right : Alban and Maxime (two afol friends), Me, Scott and Alan from Lego brand, and Regis (Anio) from techlug.

It is not nice , now we will be biting nails until October ... Now without jokes; I can only say that I'm looking forward to see what is the project result. Since it is mentioned in Technic forum it should be interesting (at least for me)

Too less information. Nothing to comment. Message because of message?
Teaser assumes any information about the upcoming project I think.

Even the description of the team do not match the photo: you are standing third from left, but count three members before you.

I'd venture a guess that the project is related to the Bugatti Chiron.

Yeah, wasn't the "motto" for that project "Build the impossible"?

Hello, sorry for that, indeed it is hard to wait even for us !

For the description, I have edited, I hope with better understanding :-)

Yes the Bugatti was phrased as Build the Impossible so I’m assuming this is something similar!

[dr_spock]

It looks like you built the impossible NDA.  Is it impossible to break your NDA?

I sure hope it is not the Bugatti - the whatever metal frame and the chain drive was such a disappointment. "All built with LEGO bricks" … garbage.

Here in the Technic forum, folks learn the hard way, show it, know about it, that the >all LEGO< Bugatti 1:1 Scale >IS< impossible.

Whatever it is - don't use an Aluminum frame - or any other kind of non-LEGO stuff.

All the best and good luck for your project!

Woah, woah - easy there.   Actually, the post about the 1:1 Chiron didn't make the claim that it was all bricks.  From memory only, I think it mentioned something like 90% or something.  Not going to look it up, but the official post was more than transparent that the whole thing was not bricks....

It said "over 90%"... which is very rational.

Must disagree... the "behind the scenes" video showed an amazing amount of work go into it and some truly amazing solutions. LEGO really went out on a limb to make it possible. 

Anyways, disappointed to hear that I have to wait until mid-October to see what was built... knowing Nico, it should be awesome.

So what exactly is the teaser, a picture of some random blokes? I don't get it, not even the slightest hint of what it could be or what it does. Thankfully I am a patient person a can just wait and see.

According to team pictures name, it should be some crane, so most probably big 42082.

[AFOLegofan66]

[pagicence]

I assume that it will be posted here in this topic?

[nico71]

Yes as soon the official release I will post here :)

I’m really happy to see that Lego has recognised the importance of the French Lego Technic community through this project. Congratulations! Very curious to see the ourcomes!

If it will be bigger version, I wonder whether it would be 100% LEGO

That really sounds interesting. We already know that you had created a C model for 42082 and I am pretty sure this post would not refer to it in any way since that model has already been made public in this forum before. Wondering if it is a 42082 on steroids.

Do you mean the release of the ready product??   Or you mean the announcement?

[Akbalder]

I don't see what it could be but a big crane.
