    Hi everyone, these are the sets that didn't get the chance to be reviewed properly in 2025 from RacingBrick
  2. Ngoc Nguyen
    Did you just make this up? These machines don't exist.

    So the car-ification of Technic is now complete.

    I'll make this a challenge to myself and will try to do this version. It will be very hard, but that's what makes this fun! I'm also expecting the 42242 to be in the same arrangement. https://special.mercedes-benz-trucks.com/fileadmin/user_upload/Images/Special_Trucks/Themen/Messen-Events/Unimog-Tour/Exponatesteckbriefe/Exponatesteckbrief_U5023_Kran.pdf

    The side knob controls the linked differential locks. The chassis is taken directly from my mini 42129, which looks like this. Speaking of which, that's the problem I'm facing at the moment. I havent decided about what to put in the back. I'm not really fond of a crane since I've done a number of crane trucks already. I was wondering if I can ask for some suggestions from you perhaps.

    Putting a knuckleboom in the middle of the Unimog didnt turn out so well...

    Til you get a Zetros that has the same price as the premium 1:8 Porsche...

    Am I the only one who feels a very great sense of irony in the fact that cool construction vehicles get to appear in City while Technic, well you know what I mean.

    What flaw might that be?

    Part of me wants the new Unimog to have a knuckle boom crane in the middle of the body, because the last Technic set with a knuckle boom crane was released in 2009. The other part me dreads the prospect of replicating it on this scale. Not to mention the outriggers.

    Positive as people may feel about the original Unimog 8110, I'm not really fond of it. I bought it in 2019, so my expectations were shaped by modern Technic, and by that the 8110 just failed to live up to.

    I suppose the 42242 would go for a midbody crane to make it different from the old 8011.
  13. Ngoc Nguyen
    My guess is that it'd be a 42129 reskin (because mine is also one ).
  14. Ngoc Nguyen
    That mini replica guy did it again!
  15. Ngoc Nguyen
    42129 and 42145 are also 11+. I think 42242 is the motorized flagship of this year.

    I have a Unimog 5023 MOC in the works since last year, what a nice coincidence! I've been sitting on it since I don't know what accessory to put in the back. If this is true I'll turn this MOC into a mini replica
  17. Ngoc Nguyen
    Thank you! That's the best compliment I can get for a replica Here's a video on how it works.

    Or maybe the other designers just don't want the promotion, or they work with multiple themes at the same time. At least the latter is true for Olav Kroigaard. He designed the set 75095 TIE Fighter, which was released in 2015, and in the introduction page he said he has been a Star Wars designer for 9 years, but he was also the lead designer for the 42053 and 42054 in 2016. Who knows if Uwe Wabra takes on other tasks in TLG. Regardless, I think that discussion would be better somewhere else because it is Master Grohl's thread. Let's cheer for his achievement!

    Bent panel 135 degree, which first appears with print in the Ferrari FXX K, is now available without the print in the set 42226.
  20. Ngoc Nguyen
    The only one before Grohl is Markus Kossman. I'm curious about this too. As far as I know it should not have anything to do with the length of one's job as there are other Technic designers among the current Technic team that have been around way longer than Grohl. At least I'm aware of Uwe Wabra and Olav Kroigaard.

    Master Grohl is now officially a Design Master!!! https://www.instagram.com/p/DWlngYxDBQ5/
