  1. My plan for Technic 1H: 42116 Skid Steer: Rebuild. I have a spare clamshell bucket from 42043 Arocs B model. 42117 Plane: Rebuild in red. I have a spare pair of red taper panels from 42098 B. Also I'm not fond of the teal color. 42118 & 42119: Not gonna buy. Im not fond of pullbacks. 42120 Hovercraft: Definite buy. I like this set. Hopefully it's not gonna be cancelled because of the potential resemblance to a military rescue boat. 42121 Excavator: Buy or rebuild. I really like this set. I have a string of black tracks and spare buckets from 42055 B already. If it has some new part I'm gonna buy it. 42122 Jeep: Definite buy. I really like this set. I may get a bunch of tyres from bricklink for my 42053s and 42080s. 42123 Senna Mclaren. Definite buy. I really like this set. 42124 C+ Offroad: Not gonna buy. It's just another 42109. I got bored of 42109 after a week. At least 42109 looks cool to me. 42124 doesn't. 42125 Ferrari: Not really sure. Aside from the fact that photos arent available, I dont think it's gonna be any different from any of these cars I already own in terms of both car types and car functions. If it's different then maybe.
  2. I've just found out there is a version of the real Osprey that kinda resembles the reconstructed version.
  3. I finished the reconstructed version I put in the first post. As mentioned above, I found two problems with Seoon-Daddy's battery box. However, they are minor problems and can be fixed quickly. Then I found out a 3rd problem. The rotor doesn't tilt up. This can be due to either: - The battery box doesn't provide enough energy - The motor doesn't have enough torque, I recalled having read somewhere that the PF L motor has slightly less torque than the Control+ L motor - The custom rotor blades are heavier than the official blade.
  4. Cuz TLG already created a Liebherr model before.
  5. I mean a proper a reach stacker with proper paneling and flagship treatment and Unimog tyres and possibly license and possibly RC.
  6. The second problem with the previous design is that in the original setup, the wire for the L motor will go out from the front and will be squeezed by the cockpit subassembly. There is no place to route the wire for the L motor. My solution is that I removed one hole in the brick line and routed the wire from between the switch axle and the red connector.
  7. All of the parts for the reconstructed version are here. I found a problem with @Seo-onDaddy's battery box solution. This design pushes the end with the switch (driver's side) slightly away from the pin hole in the panel. If I tried to force the 5.5 axle, the middle section of the design bends slightly forward, and this is not desirable. My fix for this is that I replaced the two 2L thin liftarm with the rubber 2L liftarm with two axle holes.
  8. If it looks complete, then it's complete.
  9. All models with balloon tires. Some of them need the new Jeep tractor tire.
  10. The parts I ordered to reconstruct a white-red 42113 replica have arrived. I'll do a test build this weekend and report on anything noteworthy. I'm gonna use the PF L motor and Seo-on Daddy's solution for the battery box.
  11. Apparently there are no Speed Champion sets in the leaked catalog. Could it be that miniature cars will be in Technic from now on?
  12. I bought one last month. The color inconsistency between liftarms and most panels have been resolved. However, thses parts still have a slightly different shade of green: - Pin hole with axle - Flex axle - Panel 5x11 #17 and #18 - Shell panel 3x11 with 2 holes (on doors)
  13. New parts for Technic 2021 1H so far: Flat panel 3x7x1 in Yellow, Blue, LBG, and DBG Flat panel middle section for small panels #21 and #22 2x3x1 in Yellow and Blue Parts in new color Corvette wheel arch in Blue, possibly printed
  14. The story about the origin of the leak:
  15. Yes my 42053s and 42080s are sorely missing it!!
  16. I might have to disagree. The excavator looks awesome and is the most Technic-ish among the batch. I think the two pull back monster trucks should have the tractor tires as well, instead of balloon tires.
  17. The Jeep has one 3x7 flat panel as the hood and another one as the roof. There may be another one in the back.
  18. No I dont think so. The new blade has 3 pin holes. I cant see that in the hovercraft. I think what you're seeing is just the 3x13 curved panel in black. Or maybe it's a new panel like 3x13 flat or 3x7 flat.
  19. There new panels, and they appear in blue. Then the next supercar is blue! Max D has 3x7 flat panel on the sides.
  20. Jeep Wrangler has panel 3x7 in yellow (from 42114 Volvo)
