If not supercar then a supertruck would be just as good. -

Remember that time when TLG unveiled a monstrous machine, the biggest Technic set ever, at Nuremberg Toy Fair? Pepperidge Farm remembers. Good old times... -
Technic 2017 Set Discussion
Ngoc Nguyen replied to CM4Sci's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I thought 1H flagship has a shelf life of 1.5 year? 42052 Helicopter was released at the beginning of 2016 and was retired sometimes mid 2017. -

42078 - Mack Anthem
Ngoc Nguyen replied to AndroTech's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Is there any front loader refuse truck without the upper cabin cover? The 42078 B model doesn't have the upper cabin cover. Garbage may fall on it. -

U Wabra has never appeared on any Technic Designer videos as far as I remember. Someone else will do the talking about the sets for him. -

Considering my preference for Technic and my general indifference for LEGO Superheroes also, may I inquire into how your expectations for what's coming up for Batman has anything to do with Technic in general and with this thread in particular -

I think he meant both articulated steering and front axle steering. -

Ngoc Nguyen replied to Jim's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I think the steering is like this -- -- 20z -- -- -- -- -- 20z -- turntable gear rack The direction of the 42080 is like this I think --------\ front rear \ \ | cabin | -

There are also 2 red pins with bush in the front portion of the lower body. They signify the integration of two seperate modules. I'd say there is a large turntable under the cabin. It doesn't need a knob to rotate. The superstructure of 42053 doesn't need a knob to rotate either. -

@Ivan_M I go with names on brickset: https://brickset.com/parts/colour-Dark-Green/category-Technic https://brickset.com/parts/colour-Earth-Green/category-Technic So for future references, Bricklink Green = Brickset Dark Green, and Bricklink Dark Green = Brickset Earth Green ? About the steering, 42080 has both articulation steering and front axle steering. Since there is only one HOG knob in the rear body I think these two steerings are linked. But I dont know if in real life there is such presence of both kinds. Is there? If yes, what is the purpose? Like, why not just steering for two front axles instead? Anyone has any idea? -

Ngoc Nguyen replied to Jim's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
@Bartybum ahahahahahaha On another note, the green in 42080 looks more like this green than this green 42008 green is Dark Green, same green with those in 42052, 42064, 42078. While 8941 green is Earth Green, and is darker than the so-called "Dark" Green. I therefore stand by my claim that 42080 green is Earth Green. After 2017 a year of Blue we shall have 2018 a year of Green. -

No, there aren't. So that color barf 42080 does have a redeeming quality after all. -

@Interceptor I think there needs to be a small or extra small motor before what you said can happen. But let's get back to the topic
