8258 vs 8110 vs 42009

[Waterkamp]

Hi, i'm wondering if anyone have this 3 sets buiild and can take a picture to compare

between this huge sets in the last 3 years. I only have the 8258 and very interested to see how it compares to the other two.

or anyone have pictures of 8258 with 42009 that would be great

thanks

[Tubby]

I would but 8258 isn't built at the moment. It is much bigger though in a slightly larger scale and the Unimog is bigger again.

[Waterkamp]

thanks Tubby, so based on your experience for the bigger set and to put in ranking :

1. 8110

2. 42009

3. 8258

I found the older thread for 8258 vs 8110 , http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=59870

still very curious to see 8258 or 8110 compares with 42009.

I can upload a picture of 8110 and 42009 beside each other if that helps. Haven't got my hands on a 8258 yet :(

[Jim]

Can't find comparison with 42009. Skriblez seems to have picture.

Of course if you can, would really appreciate it

Yup, I think 8110 is the bigger one from that picture

I will take the picture this afternoon when I come back from work.

I can also take a picture with 8421 Mobile Crane, 8285 Tow Truck (which is exactly the same size as 42009 and 8258), 8275 Bulldozer if you want?

I would say: enjoy them!!

[Jim]

Almost all of my favorite sets! Very nice!

Still need to get the 42009.

41999 is still new in its box. I will use that set as some sort of reward for myself or something like that.

42009 is really good! The construction is of high quality! It's a set that really takes some time to build.

Hi,

As I don't have the 42009, I can only compare with the 8421xl:

I got half of them. Missing the 3 on the right... And i also still want the 42009. Im loving that crane.

[LegoSjaak]

Here is another picture for comparison....

Same here

2013 is not a yellow year for me. In 2014 I will make up for it

Thanks a bunch for the effort , I really do enjoy all the pictures and I saved some of them for references

i'm gonna get the 42009 for sure this christmas.

Here is another picture for comparison....

thanks LegoSjaak the 42009 definitely longer, and with the boom extended I can imagine that it's massive

[JunkstyleGio]

Can't find comparison with 42009. Skriblez seems to have picture.

Hé these pictures are mine...

I made them to make a comparison between 8258 and 8110.

Found them via Google Images. Hope you don't mind Gio

(didn't know they were yours, otherwise I would have mentioned it of course)

Looking at the picture more closely I realise it must have been your Unimog

Didn't pay that much attention to it.

Feel free to use them, glad I can help you!!

If you want I can take some more pictures?! With the boom extended, Crane Truck crane unfolded, undersides. I also have 8069 Backhoe Loader (it came for free with 42009 ). And 8264 Hauler (those are my bigger TECHNIC sets).

Feel free to ask!

sure of course, I imagine if you can make it like side by side, the 42009 with the crane extended on the front and the 8110 on the back and you take it from the side leveled on the floor ?

from this pic http://upload.brickshelf.com/gallery/stephan3321/Technic/20130828_214118.jpg

I can already see that the length and width is the same size as 8258 ?

[Stephan]

Is this about what you mean? It's really hard to photograph them from that position: 42009 is too big !

Photo 1

Photo 2

Photo 3

Yes, they are the same length and the same width!

[Waterkamp]

yup, that's right like this one http://www.brickshel...chnic/11111.jpg

but if you can make it align from front to back

i'll give you an example of what I mean
