Yes. I had to rebuild the whole thing from the start, and I alternated the pins so that the bends cancel out. It's pretty annoying. Perhaps @kbalage can make a video about this phenomenon.

There's no 42130 in the 2021 Technic lineup. The CAT's number is 42131. 2021 2H lineup contains 42126, 42128, 42129, and 42131.

Maybe, but when I attached the side panels there's an ugly gap between the vertical 9L beam and the panels.

I've just discovered that most of the black technic pins in my 42128 set are crooked. They slightly bent toward the side with the mold mark and away from the side with the center groove. Since I usually align my pins so that the mod marks are one side, after a while the model becomes visibly crooked.

The jjp leak doesn't sound quite plausible to me.

I based my design on a Kalmar reach stacker.

What's better than one model full of cool functions and details? Two models full of cool functions and details, of course! This model contains a Reach Stacker and a T-face Economy Class Truck. Reach stacker's functions & details: - Inline 6 engines - Openable engine cover - HOG steering with a 55 degree steering angle - Sliding counterweight - Sliding cabin - Openable door - Front outriggers - Boom raising - Boom extending - Grabber slewing - Grabber extending - Flush door handle - Adjustable steering wheel - Adjustable chair - Monitor screen - 360 degree control joy stick - Wheel chocks - Anti glare lights - Supporting lights Truck's functions & details: - Inline 4 engines - HOG steering - Tiltable cabin - Openable doors - 3-way container locks - Side mirrors - Additional mirrors on the passenger's side - Horns - Hazard lights - Aircon slits on dashboard - Cup holders on dashboard - Adjustable steering wheel - Fuel tanks - Oil filters - Exhaust pipes - Cabin prop bar Are you interested now? https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-88080/nguyengiangoc/42128-c-model-container-play-set/#details

Records of Technic's prehistoric age does not concern me.

One kind of motorbike that has not appeared as an official set is a motorbike with a side car. I'd love to see it one day.

I highly suspect that this thing is a motorcycle. TBD likely means a licensed model. Its part count and price are consistent with those of previous motorcycle sets: 42107 Ducatti: $69.99, 59.99€, 646 pieces 42063 BMW: $59.99, 49.99€, 603 pieces

This thing is probably a 42109 clone.

I tried to do it but it will weaken the rear structural integrity.

I think this is the first time (or at least to me) that the part list in the official instruction has wrong information. I was disassembling my A model to test build the C model I designed. When I checked the number of tubes in the official instruction, both the online one and the book one, apparently there are 10 black tubes and 12 grey tubes in the set. However, there are way less tubes than that in the boxes. I freaked out for a minute. Then I checked Bricklink, Rebrickable, and Sariel's review, and found out that there are only 5 black tubs and 6 grey tubes in the set.

Mold marks means marred models.

@Jim Do the photos in the review have blue backgrounds

Uwe appears in the designer interview for the McLaren, but so does Aurelien, so I don't really know who actually worked on that set. Maybe both of them did, but that is unusual because the McLaren is a small set. Olav seems to have left TLG, and his last set apparently is the 42097 Spider Crane. Maybe Uwe is working on the 2022 supercar... That is also really weird because one of the new Technic designer, Samuel Tacci, said in the live interview with Milan back in July that he didn't work on any set for the 2021 lineup.

That makes me think if TLG had just slapped the good ole PF on all the C+ sets a decent amount in the cost might have been cut.

Check 42070

Apparently Markus designed this beast.

They're not just good looking, they are jam packed with functions!

The C model is done. So can you feel the Technic tonight?
