  1. The box in the Osprey looks really weird It doesnt look like the C+ hub, but it also doesnt look like any among the planned hubs.
  2. And the fake engine has to be transverse as well
  3. Dont give TLG ideas, they may release a shade of ice-blue someday....
  4. It's a rescue aircraft, people! If it's rescue, then it's totally appropriate. Doesnt matter what and where and when it does the rescuing.
  5. Im thinking about rebuilding the rear half of my 42030 B into the rear half of 42114 instead of buying a new 42114.
  6. Yes!!! Offroad Tracked Fire Engine!!!
  7. I think TLG's technique is generally referred to as "repurposing." And if they want to, surely one day they'll be able to repurpose a tank into some tracked offroad apparatus.
  8. No that is not the final result. That's a fake image produced by haters or competitors! The magazine is fake, the toy fair photo is fake! #satire
  9. To those who find the "Rescue" designation odd/funny/inappropriate, technically the Osprey was designed for troops rescue. From the page about the Osprey on Wikipedia:
  10. I think the Porsche wheel arch fits better than the Defender one.
  11. At first I planned to buy this thing and put it next to both 42030 A and B for comparison. But my enthusiasm for it decreases every day.
  12. I think the middle motor is the L one and it's gonna drive the bed. Proportions comparison again.
  13. Common criticisms for 42070 gathered from this forum: (I myself have no problems with 42070 btw) - Higher price, lower value. It's only 10$ away from the Porsche and costs more than its predecessor 42055. - Exposed rear deck, unfinished look - Poor off-road capability despite being touted as all terrain - Poor RC performances in general - Weird B model that has even worse RC performances 42114 has: - Same price, same 6x6 setup, less functions - The look is more finished but the proportions are off. - No B model. It's fair to make the comparison. Just to clarify again I myself dont hate 42070. I bought two 42070s just to have both A and B. And Im not hating 42114 either. as I dont play with my models much and dont bother with RC performances and what not.
  14. I wanna see if this thing will receive as much hate as the 42070.
  15. What's the white block thingy in front of the drum for?
  16. Defender wheel arch in white is coming in the new Mindstorms set.
  17. There's a lever near the tail, so at least there's elevator control. There doesnt seem to be rudders though.
  18. I really love the direction of those mid scale truck. First the Mack, then the Car Transporter, then this. I think TLG is Technic-ifying some of the trucks in the City themes. This would allow a more diverse array of truck types to choose from.
  19. Apparently Markus Kossman has a new title now: Design Master. I think it's the ultimate top position in terms of design.
  20. Time to revive this thread. Photo has been added to first post.
  21. The 42052 blade is 31 studs long, just for reference.
