  1. Kind of silly to re-release 8041, especially as it's a poor set (IMO).
  2. Hah, I wish that were true in this case. Yeah, that's obviously the main reason.
  3. That's what is puzzling really. Why would they go for such a radical re-design if the original looked so much better? Did it look too similar to an existing model? Were there build quality issues? I'm pretty sure kids everywhere would prefer to buy the preliminary version. And yes, stuff like this is why TLG don't want preliminary pictures to be published
  4. Yeah, I wanted to refrain from judging the model too much until I saw it with my own eyes, but seeing them side by side shows a pretty drastic difference in the aesthestics department, and not for the better.
  5. So a bigger, motorized, RC version of 8416? Sign me up.
  6. I'll wait with judging 42039 till I see the final model before me, but the preliminary model did look better at first glance. Still getting it for the parts though.
  7. As others said, lovely model. Not a big fan of the LBG rims though.
  8. Boom bending is pretty common, though to the side is clearly a problem.
  9. Well, once you've got the LDraw model finished you can give Blakbird (the resident immortal omniscient omnipotent omnipresent LDraw/instructions/rendering guru) a call, he can make beautiful renders in various colours.
  10. I think this update is going to be a great improvement of an already good-looking design Curious to see the end result! Good to see you're sticking to the same colour scheme as the original.
  11. I want to build it in dark blue
  12. Time to open your wallet then, they will not get cheaper ;-)
  13. It's on Rebrickable at last: http://rebrickable.c...etle-type-1-67.
  14. This beautiful model is now up on Rebrickable: http://rebrickable.c...ault-ft-17-115.
  15. It's up on Rebrickable: http://rebrickable.c...13-trial-truck
  16. I missed my old one, so I put it back /offtopic
  17. Eh, we're all just giving our opinions. I don't see anyone going 'toe to toe'.
