I don't know, I kind of like the helo. A twin-rotor helicrane is novel, and there's still the alternate builds. Could be about 8-10 studs longer, but yeah, I'm OK with it. Also, tracks.

42055 - Bucket Wheel Excavator
XAxles replied to Jim's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Well you know, the B-model still has to tell the bricks apart, even if it sorts by size, right? It needs a sort of computer unit or Mindstorms module. -
Well, 11 starters plus 5 subs. Sounds good to me.

42056 - Porsche Speculation
XAxles replied to Jim's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
So it is going to move on its own power at the flick of a switch. But what's gonna move it? -
42056 - Porsche Speculation
XAxles replied to Jim's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Whoa. That is some driver's area. I wonder how much will that cost me on the options list. Now can anyone deduce the gobbins there? -

Pneumatics with PF backup? Yup, just made a mark on me. Impressive, most impressive. And to think that this set isn't even flagship. -

XAxles replied to Jim's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Told you the B-model is the winner for this set. It'd be interesting to find out how the system sorts bricks. . . . . Also... Whoever said that they're gonna buy two of this set is in luck. -

Well, well, well. Looks like the B-model did it better. -
42056 - Porsche Speculation

Standard engine block, and a separate block, you say, AOW? . . . Is it what I think it is? And is it why the front end is a bit too long in comparison to the real car? -

XAxles replied to Jim's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
It occurred to me just now that this may be the cheapest set that has Pneumatics. At least for this century. -

You know, this may be one of those times when the B-model is the model to beat, but someone still has to turn the box around 180°. You are awaited at Valhalla. -
That's actually a pretty novel baby carriage build. P Wait. Is that... a baby with arms and legs?

4x4? But the actual 991 RS is only RWD. -
42056 - Porsche Speculation
XAxles replied to Jim's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
One, it's not the GT2 RS (it won't come out until 2 or 3 years later), and the other car posted isn't that either (close, but check the rear intakes on the LEGO model that doesn't exist in the other one). 42056 is this. Two, it's going to be quite an event if that car is confirmed to be RC, but (1) what and where is the servo motor? (2) where is its controller? Good thing they kept the drive motors at the back, though. It can not be a 911 if its engine isn't at the back. Three, is it just me or I really can't find the roll cage? -

Bloody good grief. Those wheels. The spokes are picture-perfect accurate! For shame they aren't center-lock like the real thing, however. -
42054 - Claas Xerion 5000 Trac VC
XAxles replied to Jim's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
so where's it slotting in then? In terms of size, I mean? -
42055 - Bucket Wheel Excavator
XAxles replied to Jim's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Something like that, I hope? Would look great when modified as a War Rig, that's for sure. -
Keep it coming!

XAxles replied to Jim's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Swank. Impressive features for a non-flagship. I wonder if they have the 1x11 cylinders? -
42054 - Claas Xerion 5000 Trac VC
XAxles replied to Jim's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Right. Exactly how much larger will those tires be in comparison to the rest? And how heavy is it gonna be? -

Above: whatever that camo is trying to hide. -
42056 - Porsche Speculation
XAxles replied to Jim's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
The car is seen around my neck of the Internet as orange, as it's the color that it was painted with on its reveal a year ago, though if you go configure one, there's many more. As this is LEGO and cars, however, they'll do the orange one. -

Probably Porsche AG's orders or idea. -

No. Like I said above yours, it's camo. It wouldn't show up in the final set, and the car itself definitely will not be black.
