  1. Since we're talking about new molds, allow me to express my nostalgia about 2H 2016 sets which give us a supercar and a bunch of amazing new molds
  2. @MorningWon Can you show the pages with the steering mechanism in the front and rear axles please? I wanna see if there is Ackermann steering or not.
  3. Who (what) are the babies and who (what) is the father
  4. It is supposed to, but just not at the moment The official release date is Aug 1st
  5. The interesting is that there is a 7L gear rack and a 13L gear rack. Does this mean the two axle will have different turning radii? Or maybe one axle will have Ackerman steering!
  6. @JonathanM Is the diagram you post about reverse or reverse-reverse?
  7. Can you show some diagram to illustrate? I don't understand anything about reverse or reverse reverse
  8. @Ctan Can you share some pictures that show the two gearboxes in the undercarriage? I'm particularly interested in the gear meshes that lead to the turntable. I, like Ctan, also work on visual materials. Maybe that's why I feel the impact of color vomit more sharply.
  9. OMG them greens! My eyes.... There is a saying that goes red and green should in most cases, except Christmas, never be placed next to each other X_______x http://uxmovement.com/content/why-you-should-never-pair-green-and-red-on-the-web/ And Ackermann steering is there!!
  10. Since there are no worm gears, I think the rubber bands will be employed in some mechanism to keep the telescopic boom from collapsing and keep the winch from dropping. There are 2 rubber bands, so it's likely. 42070 also uses portal axle hubs but has a 13L gear rack.
  11. The chassis is wide but the gear rack is only 7L and there is no tow ball connector liftarm -> Ackermann steering
  12. This Mod looks very wrong but also looks very right... https://imgur.com/a/AzNVwTu#UZJfgwO
  13. Does the embargo date mean Jim is not allowed to publish the review before Aug 1st?
  14. @Bublehead Nah, the last crane came out in 2015. The number is 42042.
  15. The only set with an off putting size for me is 42025. It has long measurements in two dimensions instead of one like other sets, so I ended up having nowhere to display it and disassembling it instead. Most other sets are big but are so in length only, so storing them isn't a problem for me.
  16. For one thing, the multidirectional gearbox in general requires more space than the multifunctional one. I'd much prefer the former because it is more intuitive to use.
  17. Not to mention the new and highly coveted 3x7 shell panel in red
  18. I got myself a 8258 with about 150 USD or something. I had disassembled the dreaded 42009 and never intended to put it back together again, and was looking for ways to recycle the parts. 8258 uses 7 13L gear racks, and 42009 has 12 of them, so I settled on the 8258. I bricklink-ed the remaining parts. I didn't order the XL motor because the L motor from 42009 sufficed already. And the 10 wheels from 42009 allowed me to build 8258 with proper twin duallies.
  19. All H2 sets are already available for preorder on amazon.de. Shipping is on 26th July.
