There are two between the monocoque and engine cover. -

Yes that is new. I first saw them in the 488 GTE but I believe they are slightly older than that.- 5,466 replies

42159 Yamaha MT-10 SP

42159 Yamaha MT-10 SP
LvdH replied to Ngoc Nguyen's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
It looks quite cool, but compared to the BMW this looks very “cheap”. Which it’s not, because it has an RRP of €230 for less than 1500 pieces. I do really look forward to having the new gearbox pieces though. I’ll probably buy it at some point, but only with a substantial discount (€130-€140 at most). -
42159 Yamaha MT-10 SP
LvdH replied to Ngoc Nguyen's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Those are some game changing parts. But I can’t help but see some similarities to this gear shifter with the relatively new CaDA equivalent. Those driving rings are also 2 long like before. Very interesting for sure. -

Also in DBG. And I also spot a 5x11 tapered panel previously exclusive to the Osprey. -
42156 - Peugeot 9X8 Hypercar
LvdH replied to Ngoc Nguyen's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I think it's quite clear that with the (imo) subpar service of Pick a Brick they are not that interested in selling a handful of parts to us (enthusiasts), but rather selling sets to the average person who sees such a car at an event (in this case, Le Mans) and wants one themselves. It's just a big marketing ploy, same with any of the other large cars they have made. -

I checked the "replacement parts" service on the LEGO website and it does show "Titan. Metal." axle pins in the parts list. I briefly thought it might have been an error but it seems completely legit.- 5,466 replies

Rebrickable always has color errors for brand new parts. Give it a few days. The blue ones are with friction by the way, these are without friction. Anyway, here they are: Kind of weird they recolored it when they're not visible in this set, and also not used elsewhere.- 5,466 replies

No idea why it took so long, but 16 long soft axles are finally available in white. In a Lego Friends set, of all themes. https://rebrickable.com/parts/32202/axle-hose-soft-16l/15/- 5,466 replies

Pics of the Lamborghini and Audi have leaked. Audi is black and Lamborghini is (again) lime. And both not particularly good looking if you ask me... -

8880 came in two versions I believe. As mentioned above with the two different steering arms. One also had black 16t clutch gears.- 5,466 replies

It’s almost certainly not. You can see the “bracing” in the middle lines up with the teeth, just like the LBG ones.- 5,466 replies

[MOC] 1:8 Ford GT
LvdH replied to mihao's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
New headlights look pretty good. Is there a way to get the characteristic white outline? Maybe with some system bars or tusk/tooth pieces? -
Price per part is not always a good measure. This set has more pneumatics and a massive tyres that cost more to produce. It also has a license. The same way that it really shouldn’t be argued the Eiffel Tower is a very good value (€630 for 10001 pieces), when thousands of the parts are just 1x1 plates or variants of it.

There is also a picture of the brand new never seen before Bugatti Bolide. https://www.lego.com/nl-nl/service/buildinginstructions/42162 Looks like dark azure. I hope so anyway. -

LvdH replied to Ngoc Nguyen's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
So there is a low resolution picture that has leaked. It’s yellow and DBG and it looks absolutely massive. Part count can be confirmed as 2883. -

42156 - Peugeot 9X8 Hypercar
LvdH replied to Ngoc Nguyen's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Since June 2019 according to his LinkedIn, and apparently a few months in 2015. From what I’ve read he designed some of the Monster Jam trucks. -

At 7:31? It says “Kasper Rene Hansen”. -

LvdH replied to Ngoc Nguyen's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Agree. Normally they will print a part if the set contains more than one needed. -
42156 - Peugeot 9X8 Hypercar
LvdH replied to Ngoc Nguyen's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
On the one hand, it looks a LOT more finished than the Ferrari 488 and Porsche RSR, but on the other hand I do kind of wish there was a gearbox. At lesast the blue BMW shock won’t be going out of production soon.
