  1. The Airbus I guess. There might be a Liebherr crane coming later (October maybe), but nothing is confirmed.
  2. Same for the BMW I’m pretty sure. We knew it existed but nothing else. With the 42127 we knew it was a set with a movie license.
  3. Except with Ideas YOU submit your model to them. If you don’t submit your model, they won’t do anything with it. Anyway, you agree to terms and conditions which state the idea will remain theirs for two years even if they decide not to produce it. MK will either contact you with an offer (which is laughably low), or just steal it without any contact.
  4. Unfortunately, unlike Cada, the people over at MouldKing have zero respect for the designers they rip off. They have collaborated with some designers (ZeroBrick and Firas for example), but it’s more like “we will pay you x amount, if you don’t like it we will just steal your design and give you nothing”.
  5. There is basically 0% chance a Technic part will win. That being said, this part would be game changing:
  6. In very few cases maybe. The middle axle hole doesn’t support an axle going through (only 1 stud on either side), and of course the middle part is also sticking out half a stud. The Cada liftarm is just a standard 1x3 liftarm except with axle holes.
  7. 14 long soft axles haven’t been produced for 12 years. No way these are 14 long.
  8. You don't need a math PhD to see that doesn't fit But I forgot about that. There are definitely more things that don't quite fit, but none as bad as that one. I think I fixed it in mine with a 2L black pin and a half pin and didn't think about it any further...
  9. I’ve tried ordering some of the new parts from the Ferrari, but all I got was a semi-official confirmation via mail that new parts are only available to purchase from Pick a Brick three months after release. Of course we’re now 4 months after the release date of the MCL36 McLaren, and none of the new parts are listed so we’ll have to wait and see if that’s any different for the McLaren. Roughly translated email below:
  10. I’ve already ordered and received 100 of them For some reason Bricklink sellers haven’t caught up to the fact that those bushes are now 5 cent parts.
  11. Those dark blue pin holes are holding the ratchet mechanism. If they were 1x1 liftarms there would be no way for them to be attached to anything, and thus just floating around.
  12. Plate with pin hole most likely. You can also see them holding the reel. How could they even be 1x1 liftarms? They wouldn't be attached to anything.
  13. To be fair, mine has been sitting on a shelf for 2 and half years. It might have worked better when I first built it, but I can’t remember. I think it does matter, because it’s not just one person designing or figuring out solutions to problems. It’s a team of people with all the resources we could only dream of. All those people have different ideas, solutions, suggestions, etc plus years of experience.
  14. You mean we’re putting higher expectations on a multi-billion dollar corporation with a team of designers than an individual building in his free time? Sounds quite normal to me. Besides there are probably thousands of Lamborghini Sians or Bugatti Chirons built for every Regera, so complaints will just be fewer
  15. The paint looks great. I just don’t think it looks as good as silver under this car. Maybe if the car was yellow or white it would look better.
  16. I wouldn’t be so hopeful I also broke the system during the switch to PaB by going to the B&P URL, and ordered a bunch of the new parts: black 3x5 frames, blue 1x2 panels and the black connector with 3 axles at 120° angles. The new orange and blue parts from the McLaren were also available as well as the 3x19 frame, but did not order them.
  17. Black might be cool, but imo they already look great in silver. Are the new ones good btw? All of mine came with scuffs around the edges, so I’ve also mailed them. I just hope they don’t send the same damaged ones like they did with the discolored lime parts in the Sian.
  18. So did mine, but this morning I received the invoice so I checked the website and it said it was shipped. I couldn’t see a date so it could have been one or two days ago as well.
