McLaren - was the first thought when i look at 1st photo) Fantastic bodywork. -
uefchen, you always surprise with soemthing clever and fun)

I started with 42009 because i wanted many gears. After a while i realised that i was wrong with that) I got tons of gears, while using only 5-10% of them. And i'm still lack of some useful gears sometimes. Best way to stack nice assortment of parts imho: get a task and find some solution for it, understand which parts you need for buildng it, found which sets better suited as parts donors, buy this sets. Buying a set without this task leads to big plastic boxes filled with parts that can be used, but will probally never do)

This thing is so huge and so cool. I like almost synchonized speeds of superstructure and booms rotating. And so much details. Best looking BWE i seen. Vote for HoF too)
-
Not yet, but friction can be reduced with these parts At least it's best solution that i've seen. Bracing with single half beams should work too.
-
Incredible sculpting. And i really like this car)

No, it's not him, just random russian person)

I'm still hoping for RC. TLG released RC flagship every 2nd year before.
-
Part below 2x4 liftarm looks like fixed by 2 black pins. I don't know what else it can be. So, if liftarm is fixed with black pin it should be And in this case it's just to add friction, so heavy door will not open without some force applied. Just my thoughts...

At 0:17 it's a something rounded in LBG behind the back wheel. It may be not an RC, but just engine replica with these ribbed hoses. Anyway nice found - there is pair of red shock absorbers. So there is a suspension. Red ones - are they hard? May someone estimate how much weight needed for 4 of red shock absorbers?
-
BWE it's just too big. Doesn't seem a fun build, i feel boring just looking at photos. As someone said before - 42042 looks more appealing for a half of price.

42053 - Volvo EW160E
Victor Imaginator replied to Jim's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I just like this set. Looks very awesome for this scale. It's not something complex, and not a good source of parts, but it's somehow adorable. -
Nice source of lime beams and panels, new tires (i become a fan of new tires, trying to collect as many as i can =), almost 2000 parts, 3 turntables, lime flex axles, some complex mechanics inside... I'm not a fan of tractors, but this one it's just a good set to relax for a whole day with pizza, beer and a wife at the kitchen)
-
Very nice part this will be if TLG will ever do it... But i don't believe they do( Anyway, better to print it first for testing. 3 pins for bracing is enough? Looks like weak point for me.
-
Agrof, thanks for rebrickabling this beauty) I think i finally need to buy these large yellow shock absorbers, missing them stops me from building every time.
-
It's russia and crazy resellesrs. Drag racer listed in this shop costs roughly 160-200 euro. Just do not trust)
-
Sometime someone will make custom 42030 with all parts from alluminium)

Little American Truck
Victor Imaginator replied to Appie's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Incredible truck) I like how you used that small black pieces in engine. Looks like smallest possible solution. And it's all motorized. Just incredible. -
Clever suspension. It's what i like about this contest - tiny solutions. Less parts, more fun)
-
Yes, it looks like real one. Edit: But GAZ-3309 with red cabin is really rare, and i never seen red colored with BC-18.04 like this toy in real life.
-
I really like this model. Looks so clean and shiny)
-
Faster is better for me. I can build more complex and more large model, spending less time. And my time become more valuable each year for me.

i using these drawers: http://www.electronshik.ru/item/organayzer-kabinet-39-yacheek-kombinirovanniy-1262369 Chubays, maybe it will help somehow. And, Jim, it's really challenging to find good cabinets here in Moscow)

Sad, i miss this set.
