That_LEGO_Guy Posted March 21, 2014 Hello, First time on this forum as I'm exclusively (but not today) a Technic builder so I do apologise if It's not in the right place. After getting a bit stuck on my current project ( a 1/10 scale RC unimog ) I decided to try to build a smaller version out of bricks as a model to copy in technics. I quickly ran out of parts and was forced to move the model to LDD. So the Unimogs, 4 of them, 406/U900 and the longer wheelbase 416/U1100 with 4 seater variants or Doka as they are called Size comparison: From top left 406, 406 Doka, 416, 416 Doka Foreground 406, Background 416 The bodies are 6 wide and the wheels are a little over 8 (the blade on the front is 10 wide) I attempted to recreate the Iconic curved bonnet of the 406/416, while not perfect it's as close as i could do: The doors on all models open to reveal the Minifig seats 2 in the front and for the doka variants a bench seat in the back for 2( In reality they seat 3 on the bench) 406/U900 416/U1100 Doka The 3 sides of the trays all fold down on every model tray sizes 406 Doka: 6x5 406 : 6x7 416 Doka: 6x8 416 : 6x10 Each has portal axles (406 show only difference is red axle is longer on 416) there is a 3-point hitch front and rear on all models Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ER0L Posted March 21, 2014 Great stuff! I love such combinations between Technic and Town things. Looks very functional and playable. I like the idea of having a portal axle also in this size - don't think I have seen this before. What I'd like to know: Is the suspension as such functional? Btw. the passengers of your unimogs frighten me a bit. Doesn't seem to be their usual job ... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Neither had I, they hold up ok pushing the brick built test ( just the axles, 2 seats and a door) even though each portal hub is only held on with the width of a half bush . No the suspension isn't functional but I see no reason not to try it And the minifigs are just what I had in the brick test model. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
