AOW

RohanBeckett - now here in Poland we have winter :) and there is actually pretty low volume of sun light :) But as I took those rims and expose to the daylight the results can be seen above few post up :) In general, the model has been finished and shortly I will make new pictures of it and post them here :) Thanks to all :)

JJ2 :) :) Great Model - BWE - he he About buckets : do remember those :

Rims & Tires: Missing parts found and added : 10 x Light Gray Technic Bush 1/2 Toothed Type II 3 x Light Gray Technic, Axle and Pin Connector Toggle Joint Toothed 1 x Red Slope 45 2 x 1 3 x Black Technic, Axle 2 Pretty low count of missing parts ? Also there are no parts for the alternative model, but since I do not plan to build it then I do no worry.

Trango , so far no one has seen of Lego Technic 42051 Airport Rescue more then a picture long posts ago from the Catalogue ... both Jim and Pawel have not receive it for Review (if I am correctly) we do not know if Lego did not took it out for some reconstruction/reviesion ... or what

MaxSupercars no he did not - but that set for kids is a wonder in my opinon

RohanBackett - the issue is that here in Poland we do not get as that much sun as you in Australia :) :) but is does wonders

Thanks Jim :) I know and I understand ! :) Can not wait till 1st of December :) :)

Jim can you or Sariel tell us how many new parts there are ? I am not asking for 100% confirmation or pictures as I presume still those cannot be shown as per your policy. Are there many? Is the somekind of revolution? Regards

The rims in "liguid" have been exposed to sun light - lets see then how it will work. In the mean time this is how the 8858 looked like when I was looking for it in auction : Now it is time to do the checkout of missing parts that I hope will not be many :) New updated will be provided shortly regards

OK I know what I missed !!!!! It is UV light ! I seal it in closed dark box !!!!

SevenStuds I think that I used portion of less than 3%... will check them today and see results. Thanks

erelender I used that %3 hydrogen peroxide :) , so far rims have been taking bath for aprox. 4 weeks :) Still yellow :)

OK, and which was the original price of 8043? Do you recall? I see that by additional parts you have tripple the price of 42006 :) regards

Hello again The “Resurrection” has begun. The set as I got it was turn a part and mixed within in other sets that I acquired and shipped in a plastic bag. I took the part that I believed were from the 8858 original set and started to clean them. As you may see they were pretty “cleaned” J Once all the parts landed in to box for cleaning I started to “wash” rims with objective to return their white color, you may notice how yellow they become. Then I worked on tires them self. I have used a real tire cleaner and results are immediately visible (rubber is a rubber). All the pieces are clean and dry, so I started to count them – this is still in progress due to lack of time I will keep this post updated with more pictures and progresses Gallery: http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=560356 Regards

comparing the original price of the 42006 + the price of parts (PF) that you added have you reached or overbilled the original price of 8043 ?

Lego is making a loop :) but that nice :) I always wanted to see OLD sets in a new version I took someone picture from Brickshelf to update it

Thank you Ondra. Now counting days for the 1st of December :)

Ondra silly question, what UCS stands for?

and in 2016 H2 which one is the flagship ? Volvo, Xerion or BWE ?

can you show an example of it ?

wow - in case you need them in red better buy 8865 :)I would like to see again those: As steering parts for small sets ....

efferman -> a one piece Straight six. 9 studs long -> this looks like engine block :) :) just make a pistons for it and we have perfect "small fake engine" :)

Jim, can you tell us which set did you received for review ? If this is allowed before 1st of December :)

Hi I am not sure if this is the best place, but from all the Technic bricks/parts that have been end-dated which one you miss most?

that would be just perfect if it becomes real :)
