    The Mantis would be a fun challenge. :) In the meantime while waiting on the instructions for the G-Wagen, I took the KITT and tried to implement a bonnet even though it meant changing the engine from a V8 to flat 8. Do you think it is worth spending even more time with this model to update the instructions?

    There are still 5 of them not being shown on Youtube. I personally have no interest in building a phone stand but you never know.

    I am planning on completing the alphabet and going beyond. I would love to beat my personal record for a Technic set which was 31 for the 8271 set.

    Hooray, a positive review :) Your front bumper sits 1M further to the front, that might be partially the issue.

    IMPORTANT APP UPDATE FOR 42100 SNOW GROOMER In case you built my alternate model of 42100 and it stopped working recently, here is a video that can help with that. BuWizz App is not supporting LEGO PU Hubs any longer so I switched to the LEGO Powered Up App and wrote a new code. https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-48800/grohl/snow-groomer-42100-b-model/#details

    @I_Igor I do like the design of the movie car and to me it is one of the coolest ones. @Pattspatt I used mainly for the photo a second one but cutting it in half would work too since the range of the plow is not so big. The harpoon shoots even with the string attached but flies much better without it. The rear suspension uses similar principle to the Stadium truck one but has only 3 links due to the space needed for other things inside the model. It responds still really well but needed to be made harder. The plow is far behind it and weighs quite a lot. Luckily the suspension stiffness is really easy to adjust on this model. @Shiva Thank you. V8!

    Please allow me to introduce my second Land Rover Defender 42110 alternate Mad Max: Fury Road Clawcar #2 is based on Plymouth Barracuda 1968 Coupe The car measures 67.5cm in length with the plow lowered, 20.5cm in width and 23.5 cm in height. The features include: 4 Wheel Drive including central differential 4-Speed Manual Gearbox V8 Engine with moving pistons and additional details Front Independent Suspension Rear 3-link Live Axle Front axle steering via HOG or Steering Wheel Rear Plow with quick release drop and winch mechanism with ratchet to raise it Harpoon gun with a trigger and 2-axis movement (effective range around 2 meters) Roof gun with 2-axis movement Opening doors with handles and locks 6 Side Exhausts, huge Roof Air Intake, Gearwheel details inside the cab, Driver and Gunner seats, platform for the Plow operator Due to lack of reference footage and images and restrictions of the element volume given by the 42110 set, some section might be inaccurate but I tried my best to do what felt and looked right.
