The blue brothers
LvdH replied to Jeroen Ottens's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I’m already collecting parts for the PF Tribute - hope to have them all (including rare ones you changed to black) by the end of the month. I’ll provide some pictures and a little overview of the functions. I must say, looking through the instructions, that it exceeded all my expectations. -
The blue brothers
LvdH replied to Jeroen Ottens's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Both are absolutely fantastic models. I think I prefer the dark blue one, simply for the clean looks. I’ll definitely build it (those?) when the budget allows it -
Fantastic pictures @brunojj1, I'll probably copy a few of your mods for my own version if you don't mind For those interested: I've created some very short and simple instructions for the luggage: https://bricksafe.com/files/LvdH/collection/mclaren-720s-by-charbel/suitcase4.pdf Can also be built in red, dark azure, dark grey, white and black and the handle can be none in a number of colours as well.

White is a bit cheaper because of some rare parts in red (3x11 curved panels for instance). Red does require a couple of mods: Part 15100 doesn't exist in red, check the pictures to see how KD123 solved it (4 at the spoiler, 4 at the front). Part 18654 also doesn't exist but can be replaced with red bushings.

After a few long nights... It's finished. Not just mine, but also @KD123's. We both received the instructions a bit early to test them before release. He did it in red while I did the original white colour scheme. I blacked out all the visible pins so no blue dots anywhere (at least visible ) Per KD123's request I'm also posting his version here. And, for @brunojj1, I grabbed my P1 off the shelf and took some shots of the McLaren family together. The 720s is a little bit shorter but the rest of the dimensions match up pretty closely. More and better quality pictures can be found on my bricksafe. For those collecting parts: I was missing 4x 1x9 black liftarms and had 4x 1x7 extra. No idea if I or a seller made a mistake counting or if I made a building mistake, but for those building, add 4 1x9 liftarms to your pile/list just in case.

If anything you can just order them directly from LEGO, usually pretty cheaply too. I got a set of Land Rover wheels (not the tyres) for €2.30 each.- 5,507 replies

Great work on the model, truly a masterpiece. I think this will sit nicely next to Bruno’s P1. By the way, even though I believe it will only slow them down, maybe it’s an idea to only sell to members with an account of x weeks/months/year(s) old or with a certain amount of posts. Anyway, this ticks all the boxes for a great moc for me. Can’t wait to build it!

Yes that's the one. You need two for the rear lights.

Tail lights might get rare, only in one obscure set from 2002. Part 42023 in trans-red. You need two.

Fantastic job! I just might have to build this. Are there any exceptionally rare or expensive parts?

Technic 2020 Set Discussion
LvdH replied to dimaks13's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Hmm... doesn’t exactly scream “Ultimate” to me. I’ve been thinking, maybe it’s the Top Gear car? -
Great work so far! By the way, the Studio prices are based on averages of new pieces. It’ll be approximately half if you buy used

Usually directly from LEGO is cheaper, but it will take longer. After a while they’ll be cheaper on bricklink, in my experience.- 5,507 replies
