  1. I don't consider myself a casual Technic fan (but not expert either), and it also goes over my head.
  2. No wonder you had to open a recruiting process to lighten the load. Best of luck with that!
  3. Actually, while that mesh works, it's a bit too tight and forces the gears.
  4. But it has no differential, so only one of the rear wheels is driven.
  5. Well, one way in which it isn't better is that it doesn't have rubber tyres.
  6. I'm still convinced that TLG doesn't want to produce parts that are meant to rub against each other to create friction and wear over time. The only exception I can think of is the 24T clutch gear, and even that is meant to rub against itself (that sounded way more wrong than I expected) occasionally.
  7. That'd be even better, of course, but I'm not holding my hopes that high.
  8. To me, the best celebration would be a modernised version of a classic set... but I can't decide which one I'd personally prefer.
  9. It's still a voluntary, and therefore non-indicative, thing. For example, I only mark a review set as owned after the respective review comes out.
  10. I noticed that, too. The thing is that nothing prevents you from marking any set, upcoming or not, as "owned".
  11. You don't have to get sets from the current year to be a LEGO Technic fan: there's plenty of stuff from previous years.
  12. The real ones use hydraulics. There's no way TLG would use water due to the risk of spillage, much less oil. What's left is pneumatics, which sag over time (especially with a load as heavy as a 1:8 car) and LAs. In face of this, I'd then definitely pick LAs.
  13. The only word that comes to my mind when reading that is "yikes".
