  1. @efferman why didnt you keep the two 5x11 frames
  2. But then what do you need a highres scan of the sticker sheet for? Do you plan to recreate one?
  3. Bricklink list for the DBG parts but in White: https://pastebin.com/GuLnJYF0 This list only contains liftarms and panels. It doesn't contain gears or connectors or axles. The only missing piece is the triangular curved panel. I've substituted the two triangular panels with two 3x13 curved panels.
  4. I didn't say that I wrote it somewhere before. What I meant was I already quoted you and replied to you and you still asked me the second time, and I don't like that,
  5. I created a separate part list for the orange parts but in red, because red is one of the few colors with all the parts in the molds of the orange parts in this set. Also red makes a good accent color. https://pastebin.com/AmDNwp6V
  6. I didn't scan the sticker sheet, and I can't because I've already put the stickers onto the part.
  7. Sorry, please go to this link instead. http://www.mediafire.com/file/k4nu591ygsd7tn5/42113.pdf/file I removed the old link because the file has a duplicate page.
  8. @kbalage Can you provide some guide for the option of powering this set throught the Technic hub and a smartphone app?
  9. What do you mean? There's a line of 5 pinholes inside the panel.
  10. I planned to rebuild this in the white-red color scheme to make it look like a medevac aircraft. As a result I need to replace the 8 3x7 shell panels in DBG with 8 in white. And when I checked bricklink, I found out that I have exactly 8 of them among the available sets: 2 in 42092, 2 in 42096, 3 in 42100, 1 in 42109, 2 in 42110.
  11. I got it in HCMC. No I dont think you can find this through stores in VN. I heard that some rich guy already paid the sole Lego distributor in VN to hog all the sets to himself. You can still contact some vendors that sell hand-carried goods or Lego from foreign distributors.
  12. Replacement for the orange 5x11 tapered panels at the tail:
  13. JB Spielwaren and Sariel have the incentives to comply with TLG's removal request should TLG decides to send it, but my review is a review from someone who got the set legitimately. So at least the review should be safe. As for the BI, plenty of people have downloaded it. The numbers on mediafire said 3,000 downloads. So even if it is taken down, it is still gonna be passed around on the Internet.
  14. I got some thoughts today: - The reviewers (Sariel, RacingBrick/kbalage) received 42112 and 42115 early for review but didn't receive the 42113. And since the day that the sets were sent and the day the reviews received the sets must have been before the embargo date (July 16th and July 17th), that already means the decision to postpone the release of 42113 must have occured in the first several days of July. This would also mean the protest of that peace group didn't have that much impact as people think it did. Perhaps it only serve as a catalyst. Or, as posited by some, it could have been orchestrated by TLG to give them a legit excuse to back out of the release. - TLG's own actions defeat their point about "not wanting to be associated with an arm manufacturer" or "not wanting to release a military aircraft". The fact is just that some people already got their copies through legitimate means, which means TLG did release the set to them. It has never been and will never be true that "TLG had a wake-up slap and regained their conscience and managed to stop the release of such a heinous and unethical model." It's that they did release it. And since the promotion materials have been prepared and released, there is always proof that TLG does / used to have dealings with Bell and Boeing. - JB Spielwaren has been requested (or should I say ordered) by TLG to take down his 42113 review videos, and he actually did. Someone will send Sariel a copy soon, but I'm not sure if TLG will give him a pass. They already requested that he changed his channel's name. @Sariel what do you think about this?
  15. A fully lime body isn't possible at this moment because there are no tapered 5x11 panels in lime. But then the tapered 5x11 panels at the ramp can be bypassed through using a 3x11 panel and two liftarms, or a pair 5x11 #18 and #19 panels. Once I get my paws on the Sian I'll try it out. But that won't happen soon. I'll wait until the Sian's price hit the bottom.
  16. This is my mod to overcome the requirement for the triangular curved panel. Notice that since the side panels have to arch over the 3x5 frames, the mounting point in the back must move forward by 1 stud.
  17. @efferman In your foldable wing mod, how do you plan to use the worm gear for the tilt rotor function?
  18. In the original instruction file, page 174 is folded and doesnt show the building step. Furthermore, page 321 is missing. Sorry that it took several days to remedy this. I wanted to have those pages scanned by the same photocopy shop, so that they will have the same dimensions and composition as other pages. That will make following the instruction more seamless. This is the new file: http://www.mediafire.com/file/k4nu591ygsd7tn5/42113_Instruction.pdf/file @BusterHaus @Carrera124 There you go.
  19. I added some unicode geometric characters to illustrate the relationship between the rotors and the blades.
  20. So you're saying, in order to not get criticized for the production of a military aircraft, they intentionally got themselves criticized first?
  21. @efferman The blades in the model are facing the wrong way. At the moment they are facing outward. They should face inward instead.
