[MOC] El Toro Loco Pull&Back model

[ArsMan064]

Hello to all!

 

Today I want to show you my newest model - El Toro Loco Pull&Back model

Watch the video firstly!

  

 

Model was built special for "LTR Monster Jam " contest by "Lego Technic Russia" community

Model took 2nd place! So many great models were in the contest...

 

 

When I was building the model, I tried to keep some requirements:

1. Model should be robust enough to withstand crashes
2. Model shouldn't have overloaded design

Because of Pull&Back entity...

 

In result we can see this model - robust, easy to play model. As for me, I find model pretty nice :) It's good when you like your model, I think.

 

  

 

 

I tried to recreate main design principles of the real monster truck: flame orange body, bull-like front body shape, teeth line, vivid stickers.

Also would be great to keep some other design rules, for example - descending body line.

 

  

  

 

Also there is some imitation of the suspension.

 

  

 

Some words about features:
Except the main function - drive via Pull&Back motor, there is another feature - removable body. To be honest, it is a bit tricky process.

 

  

  

 

 

I created a free pdf instruction - find it on Rebrickable: https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-76808/ArsMan064/el-toro-loco-pullback-model/#details

Really cool execution on the teeth detail and the way the body detaches so easily is also neat.

Great job! Congratulations! It could be an official set. It's small, cheep and playable. Did you consider to submit it to the LEGO Ideas?
