Future Set Wishes and Speculation
N-4K0 replied to SheepEater's topic in LEGO Technic and Model Team
There's also 8069 which was my first set as an adult. I thought that red Huddig was a Lännen at first. -
Seat is a Spanish car manufacturer and Skoda is a Czech (Czechoslovakian) ditto.

Amazing MOC, looks great

I just looked it up and found this from 2014: Göteborg, Sweden – As part of the Volvo Group’s efforts to improve profitability and reduce costs, Volvo Construction Equipment will discontinue development and production of its current product line of Volvo-branded backhoe loaders and motor graders. In the future, these products will instead be manufactured by Volvo CE’s Chinese company SDLG. I don't know if they still make backhoes, but if they do they're branded as SDLG and not Volvo.

I don't see the chance of a Hummer being very big considering it originated as a military vehicle. it would be cool though. Just look at the potential cancelling of the Osprey set because of its use as a military aircraft despite the set being branded as a search and rescue plane.

It does look lighter, but I think it looks the same as other LBG parts like the rims and other liftarms that are visible. Maybe the darker looking liftarm is DBG? Or it could be some strange shadow issue?
-
You can see the white in the water tank behind the cab and the white line between the blue and dark blue on the cab. I definitely think that mudguard part is LBG, it looks the same as the other LBG parts I can see.

It looks like regular BrickLink Turquoise to me. What I have seen as BL Turquoise.
-
I find the BrickLink color names more descriptive than TLG's official names, but I don't see any chance they'll convert to the BrickLink names and ditch their own after all these years.
-
I think these connectors and all others with this kind of design on the axle holes too weak. Most of the ones like this that I've used with axles that doesn't have the notches the 2L ones have, have always cracked. IMO they should be redesigned cos I find them too weak to be worth using in the long run.
-
Let's home this time TLG succeed keeping it under wraps until they very day of the reveal. I believe the Chiron was leaked just 2-3 days before the reveal.
-
All I can think of off the top of my head, is using it as the tip of a laser canon for a starship.

Last night I finally got around to watch Guardians of the Galaxy. Quite a good movie, I regret not watching it before. This might hardly be a spoiler after 6 years, but still:
-
As far as I see, that DBG socket is the exact same part as the Technic one.
