42180 Mars Crew Exploration Rover
fosamax replied to Ngoc Nguyen's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Maybe it will be RC friendly. As a kid I would like to be able to remote control it. -
Ford Raptor F150 - 42154 Alternate Build
fosamax replied to Dyen's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I have to admit that even the tires doesn't look totally out of place compared to some real model. -
Ford Raptor F150 - 42154 Alternate Build
fosamax replied to Dyen's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
As always, it's a really solid build with nice photographies and video. Tires seems a bit small but that's quite logical for a B-model. Maybe a pic with bigger tires could be usefull. Instructions by forelock is also a quality seal. The tumbler looks awesome also. -
[TC25] 42043 Mercedes-Benz Arocs 3245
fosamax replied to 2GodBDGlory's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
It could really also be released with small linar actuator as well as using the old pneumatic system will not happen from TLC. -
Grum's Shed
fosamax replied to grum64's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Hi ! Did anyone got some news from Grum lately ? I used to love reading his building logs and even if writing text logs may have become a tedious task, which I can perfectly understand, I just want to know if everything is OK for him so if anyone has some news, I would be very grateful to hear about him. Thanks and take care. -
[TC22] Skid Excavator [Done] or End Loader [Done] (Free Instructions)
fosamax replied to Thirdwigg's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Yes. I'm thinking that whatever model you choose will be a good candidate for the podium, even if there's some really solid candidates in this contest. -
[MOC] Vintage Rally Coupé (42098 scale)
fosamax replied to 1980SomethingSpaceGuy's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I like that build very much. It has some vibe of an old sport car my father used to own when he was young. It was a french model : A simca 1200s designed by Bertone. Very nice work and could have been frontpaged IMHO. -
[CADA] CADA General Discussion Topic
fosamax replied to Milan's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I think that posting links for instructions that are available as premium (lucioswitch, loxlego, didumos for example) on rebrickable is not the way to handle that topic which should be used only for talking about Cada models. That being said, there's some instructions that are eventually interesting without spoliating the original creators of some mocs but it's up to the moderator to give their own opinion. -
[MOC] 8865 New Jeep RC
fosamax replied to mla2's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Hi and welcome to eurobricks ! I really enjoyed reading your post about recreation of the 8865 B-model in a studless way. I still own that set and currently have the A-model built (in a cardbox but it's built anyway). I really like your enthusiasm and find it great that you offered your mocs for free which is the way to start on rebrickable IMHO. I don't have any technic mocs to share ATM but my creator mocs are free also and it's nice to get more feedback that way even if it's up to everyone to choose their way to go. Speaking about the difficulty of those old instructions, I don't remembered those beeing so hard to follow. I think I was 10 when I built 8865 (A and B) and even if the parts per step is high, I find that most sub steps looks like a 2D step (you mostly build vertically or horizontally). Also there were way less parts available making some steps quite logical (like adding two plates on top of a beam in order to getting the right spacement) I also remember having the 4,5V motor and battery box for that B-model. Thanks for doing it great justice with your modern take on it. -
42128 C-model Concrete pump truck
fosamax replied to mktechniccreations's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
That's a really impressive Moc and being a B-model makes it even more impressive. I also think the color scheme is rather good, considering how much different colours are included in the set and seing that your part usage is quite high ! Well done.- 3 replies

Infuriating Details
fosamax replied to SirSpoony's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
The lack of turnable in 42078 : could have been used for fifth wheel or as a replacement for supporting the container and would have made some of the best alternate models (like the volvo crane truck or the mobile crane) even better. -
[MOD] 42128 - Tow Truck - Mods and Improvements
fosamax replied to efferman's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I am ! Looks great already even if I'm not totally sold on the front. Anyway, you managed to pack a high level of function in that mid size B-model. -
Nico71's Creations
fosamax replied to nico71's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Really nice model. I didn't know that some 500 had antagonist doors whereas 500f shows the classical setup. -
Jeep Willys
fosamax replied to Sariel's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Maybe putting their logo on this is more harmfull for their IP... Not sure if I'm allowed to post that photo here. MODs feel free to remove any offending pics. -

ROTATOR TOW TRUCK - 42098 C MODEL
fosamax replied to Dyen's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Awesome model as always. I'm really a fan of dyen's work. -
42128 - Heavy-Duty Tow Truck
fosamax replied to Ngoc Nguyen's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I really enjoyed the review also. Neat concise with highlight of the build. I'm usually not a fan of watching a full speed build (even if I can understand that people like those) so I like your approach more. Also interesting to see other models in the review like Mack, rought terrain crane and so on. Thanks BTW I just found this: https://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?/forums/topic/186667-rotator-tow-truck-42098-c-model/ -
3D model of my MOCs
fosamax replied to zumaidi's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
@zumaidi IMHO, maybe it could be a wise move to group all your works in one single topic instead of starting a new topic for every idea you can think off. -
Your Best Technic Bargains
fosamax replied to Kumbbl's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Bought 42110 for 97,66 € on amazon.fr for prime days (getting an extra 10 € discount for using amazon recharge). -
[MOD] 42128 - Tow Truck - Mods and Improvements
fosamax replied to efferman's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Here's a more technic version using only parts from 42093 Corvette (except orange trans clear beacon) : It doesn't look as good but should be easier to apply for people that don't want to buy system parts from bricklink. -

Here's my take at closing the front mudguard : https://bricksafe.com/files/fosamax/42128 front mudguard.io Do you think it's OK ? -
[TC20] Indy Storm (8445)

Nice choice for that model. You should upload your pics from bricksafe ou flickr for allow us to see something. -
TLG looking for new Technic designers!
fosamax replied to 1974's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I think Dyen would be a good candidate. He's a great B model designer and he's able to work with small as well as really big alternates. https://rebrickable.com/mocs/?q=dyen&get_drill_downs=drill_down_filters -
[TC20] Technic Studless Recreation Contest - Information Topic
fosamax replied to Jim's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I was thinking about a studless version of that one from lego idea book 8889: Maybe with working suspension and a V6. Well, maybe I will try without thinking about a contest. -

That's one model I own and thought about also. But it seems to be already done at the same scale https://brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=562206
