Toy Fair (New York) Update (EVO2) soon.

[Kronos]

Very impressive as usual! I've reverse engineered a couple models before, but it's a LONG process for me. I usually have MANY more pictures to work with too. Awesome job!

[jorgeopesi]

Great work as usual . Now you would have to do something more difficult, as your own MOC or copy some really complicated one.

HACKS! looks great, but I don't think I'll get this set...

[DLuders]

@ dokludi: It looks nice! By chance, do you have the 8421 Mobile Crane set for a side-by-side comparison with the 42009 replica?

[Technic Gearhead]

Incredible job! Thanks for the early look once again. I love it! :thumbup:

If he doesn't have the 8421 handy he can surely whip one up from that one image!

[Rishab N]

This is simply amazing!

Now you don't have to spend 220 dollars like the rest of us

Well done great job, not sure i like it any more now though :)

You have a great talent to do this.

[skylinedan]

That is very cool, had to be a fun build considering you had only pictures to go by. I,m with DLuders, be interesting to have a side by side pic of it and the 8421

Great job. Do you have a 8053 to compare along with the 8421 for a side by side?

[mo_]

Well done sir!!!

Do you have an estimate as to how many parts you used? It would be a good benchmark to see how close your build technique is when Lego releases an official part count.

I am only saying this as you may have been more efficient with your build (same result less parts) with your fantastic skills.

Again good job!

[Lauris]

Great talent, great job!

[Theo van Vroenhoven]

Nice work! And good to see that it can be built without any new parts.

BTW: Are the black panels on the end not available in yellow or didn't you have any left over?

I am really curious about the parts inventory to compare it with 8421.

Can you make one if you break down the model? (if ever...)

[Jim]

Very well done!!

Now for the most important question; what do you think of it? Do you like it?

[Feri84]

Great and fast job! Very impressive! Congratulation!

What is your opinion about this set?

There are the same panels on the doors, so I would assume he ran out.

Great job dokludi!

Is that really how far the boom extends though? because the extension is a bit pathetic.

Superb!!

What are EVO1 & EVO2 by the way? Are they A & B model?

EVO1 is the first version (evolution one).

EVO2 will be the second version after seeing more pics from the New York toy fair.

[mobi]

I see.

It will be great if dokludi can create a B model using same parts.

[CisFran]

Dokludi, you are truly gifted

[Balrog]

Well done dokludi.

Just a quick question. In the video from the Nuremberg Toyfair, you can see that the superstructure is sitting kind of wobbly on the turntable. Did you experience the same with your replica or did you fix that directly when building it?

This is what i want to ask too.

Well done!
