  1. This is hilarious. I love your dedication to only use Lego parts, even for the sound-producing bits.
  2. Has anyone ever used the new engine disk, part 4368, for something other than a fake engine?
  3. Yup, a while ago, he's not answering. I hope it's nothing and he'll resume building after this break.
  4. kokodak on Rebrickable had incredibly interesting "workbench" blog and very sophisticated models, and just when I got a bit of free time to buy and build one of those I discovered that he hadn't posted for half a year and all his paid models are not available any more (I suppose, due to expired payment details or something like this). Does anyone know what happened to him? This feels sad honestly. This maybe belongs to the Pub topic, feel free to move or rename.
  5. So, the "gross error" is that TLG didn't anticipate you using shitty parts instead of LEGO? :)
  6. I think I have only skipped a couple of B models, Quad bike 9392 and Arocs. They're usually good fun, and the Mack garbage truck was the tipping point of me buying the set.
  7. Look at the video at about 3:10. Sure, it's probably not as spectacular as the real thing but it looks pretty much free falling to me, so the spirit of the original machine is captured :) And the Eurobricks review I linked discuses how it is done.
  8. Sure, it can be found on his website www.designer-han.com/lego There's a video there as well, and he sells instructions here It used to be listed on Rebrickable as MOC-2542 but now it's disabled for some reason. It was discussed on Eurobricks too.
  9. As many others in the thread, I stopped following Sariel's reviews some time ago. He talks for ages about cars, something I have zero passion for. It's really not very interesting which vehicle or motorcycle Lego should have made instead and how the one Lego has made is not so precise in his opinion. Generally perfect realism is not something I expect in Lego, so it is rather dull to listen to a 15 minutes pedantic breakdown of imperfections. If we are talking about popular bloggers, for me Jason Allemann is much closer to the spirit of Lego compared to Sariel.
  10. Not very relevant but this translation gives wrong impression. The full phrase is translated as "Russian warship, go megabluck yourself", a motto commonly used now as an anti-war and pro-Ukrainian statement. And the way it is cut in the video "idi na c[huj]" is impossible to misinterpret.
  11. The way I understand it, these part numbers used by Rebrickable, Bricklink and other platforms are assigned by the community but for the newer parts they generally coincide with the LEGO-provided "Design Numbers" which can be fetched from the Bricks&Pieces page For your convenience I copied them for the 42128 set PNEUMATIC TUBE 160MM Element 6352200 Design Number 37574 PNEUMATIC TUBE, 304 MM Element 6352206 Design Number 79307 PNEUMATIC TUBE 224MM Element 6351907 Design Number 21825 PNEUMATIC TUBE, 128 MM Element 6352209 Design Number 79308 PNEUMATIC TUBE, 304 MM Element 6352208 Design Number 79307 PNEUMATIC TUBE 224MM Element 6351910 Design Number 21825 PNEUMATIC TUBE 32MM Element 6247177 Design Number 26445 PNEUMATIC TUBE 64MM Element 6119454 Design Number 21837 PNEUMATIC TUBE 184MM Element 6150192 Design Number 26436
  12. Is there any difference in strength between yellow and red hard shock absorbers?
  13. Well, in the Power functions era it was 5 years between introduction of the four-wire cable and the servomotor which used it
  14. I am positive it is real Lego. It comes from 42100 which I bought recently. And it has LEGO marking, unlike the old one, which doesn't have any.
  15. @nerdsforprez what is that giant aircraft on the last photo?
  16. Did anyone manage to order and then receive 42113-specific parts from B&P? Now they are not visible on the site. I also received a refund to my card which I used to order them on 16th of August (but no email about my order being cancelled, so maybe they are going to charge me again later)
  17. I would recommend 42055 much, much more. It's interesting to watch, the whole machine and it's functions are truly novel
  18. Hey @dunes, just for you to know, there is still interest in your BWE files :)
  19. Exact ratio with denominator 11 is impossible with classical meshing gears (as no Technic gear teeth number is divisible by 11), so you can look into differential-based system
  20. I was referring to the same place. Here you can see an end of a transverse axle which is, I think, not tan but yellow. Therefore it is not a single continuous transverse axle (so no new axle color and no new gear needed). I can be wrong though
  21. The axle on the left side of the vehicle is clearly yellow so it is not a continuation of the tan axle you're speaking about
