Technic 2H2014 Reviews

[Sariel]

I seem to recall that a single topic for all reviews worked well for us the last time, so let's try it again. Allow me to begin with 42028 Bulldozer:

[efferman]

thank you very much for this review

[skriblez]

Thank you very much :) Looks like a pretty nice set

[jorgeopesi]

Nice but I think it is a D11.

[Freekysch]

Thank you for the review, it is a nice model indeed. Any idea what the price will be ?

[Sariel]

Your guess is as good as mine.

[D3K]

Did you build the B-model yet? Looks original indeed, could almost resemble a mine clearing vehicle

[Sariel]

I won't be building the B-model, sorry, I'm too short on time :(

[merman]

Does it use the 'old' wormgears?

Can you post pics of the inventory please?

[andythenorth]

Is the B-Model a trencher?

Yes, it uses regular worm gears. No, I won't be posting the inventory, sorry, but that would come too close to breaching copyrights for the BI booklets.

Thank you for review!

Paul, do you plan to share review of 42029 set in close future?

I'm glad I'm not the only one preparing for the zombie apocalypse.

[D3K]

Apparently everyone are these days, including you government

[Sariel]

I don't really know if I'll be getting the 42029. I can only confirm 42030, but can't show that one sooner than June 15th. It's a bit chaotic, but big kudos to Jan Beyer for making it happen at all.

[Tommy Styrvoky]

looks like a ok model with quite a few features, also has some nice parts like diff and tracks.

[krtwood]

I imagine I'm not the only one who would get the bulldozer set but convert it to being a larger scale D9 rather than a mini D11. Pretty much just changing the cab. Maybe add some mini-la's for blade tilt? I bet someone has instructions on doing just that before I ever have a chance to buy it.

[AOW]

Paweł, sorry to be naive but what is the difference between regular worm gear and "other" ?

The new part (better: additional part, because it fulfills another purpose) is 3M instead of 2, cannot move freely back and forth anymore, and looks like this:

Thanks PhyBuilder - actually I was thinking on this part as the one that I refer to as "other" but I was under impression ( I do not kno why) there are some difference between black and gray worm gears :)

Thanks again

[Sariel]

Nope, they're not color-coded. And there are even yellow ones :)

[Lakop]

Nice review. What a nice set that is. The B model looks good. Look forward to other reviews.
