I love the new tires, I think this set is a keeper for me

This thing is awesome! I really hope I can afford this set eventually

BWE by JJ2Sam, on Flickr I looked at the photo at decided to post some things I noticed about it. Red: battery box, probably means the motor is in the superstructure. Blue: 3 CV joint going to the bottom, probably means 1-2 for tracks, 1 for slewing, and 1 for? Green: Gearboxes. Yellow: Manual operated linear actuators.

Yes I do to, it looks great. I think this set is ugly but love it! It is perfect for what it is in my opinion.(Just my opinion)

:cry_happy: :drool: :excited: :excited: *oh2* *huh* :wub_drool: I love it!!!!!!!!!!!! New turntable, motorized with XL-motor and huge.

Ok thank you Jim!!!! I do have the dimensions of the A-model it is 9472 cubic studs https://farm2.static...35c593ec6_c.jpg EDIT: I just recalculated it and got a different number it is now Length 37 studs, Width 17 studs, and Height 14 studs = 8806

I found this on brickset has it been posted before? "42051 Airport rescue vehicle was not being displayed 42053 Volvo EW160E, Looks much like these, primarily yellow and black but with orange accents which looked very smart. It features pneumatics controlled with a pump but no reservoir. I'm not sure how many cylinders. £70 42054 Claas Xerion 5000 tractor. £120. A pretty faithful representation of the real thing. It's lime green, as you'd expect. It's fitted with a red log grabbing attachment and is motorised. It comes with new wheels which are massive. The cab rotates 90 degrees to enable the driver to get a better view at the back. 42055 Bucket Wheel Excavator. £180 Oh. My. God. What a fantastic thing! It's absolutely huge! It's the largest Technic model in physical size, by some margin, and also piece count, over 3000. It looks something like the bottom vehicle shown on this page. in that there are two conveyer belts, one lifting material up from the buckets, the other taking it to a nearby truck, which is included. It's hard to estimate the size but it's probably 50cm high and slightly longer. The colour scheme is mostly grey but with a good smattering of yellow beams and dark blue panels. Definitely best in show for me! 42056 'confidential super car'. Exactly what this is was not revealed, and won't be for some months we were told. It's about the size of 8880 and we think it'll be black although, like when prototypes of real cars are test driven, it was covered in 'camouflage' stickers to make it difficult to determine what it is. I can tell you however that it comes with a lot of new curved panels, including mudguards, and weighs in at a massive £250! Chris has fallen in love with the set and thinks it could be a Porsche 911 GT which is certainly possible. The boxes were mock-ups so it was not possible to determine piece counts or how many motors etc. were in each one. Also, the Technic area was staffed by a 'stand-in' who didn't know a couple of things I asked. So, sorry if the details are a bit vague."

Um in my entry I am working on I did not make a bounding box for my A-model and it is now long torn apart, do I have to reassemble it????

I know we are going to find out soon but do you think the IP car being dark blue like 41999 would be awesome?

Beautiful creation! Every time you post something it blows me away

LOL! I wish that would be so funny About the 911 GT3 RS I think that would be awesome :cry_happy:

Nice video! I like how you used no words but it was completely understandable. Good job, I think I might have to borrow that suspension

Nice review Sariel, as usual +1 I think the designer ran out of ideas and just gave up.

Ouch!... Is there any restore button like PC has? So you mean you did the steps wrong?

@JaseTJ I think the Lego shop is the best place to get PF because it is brand new and if one breaks you can get a replacement. For buying, motors - battery boxes I think since you said "from various System and Bionicle sets" I think your best bet is to get M-motors because they have studs that make them easier to use in system MOC's and a AAA battery box for the same reasons. If you get the AAA battery box just use rechargeable batteries instead of spending $50 but the rechargeable battery box is WAY lighter. A speed remote is best for trains - stationary MOC's that need proportional control but you have to change speed slowly for the receiver to keep up with the remote. The normal remote is best for RC cars because of the easy controls. Hope this helped!

To my knowledge there are a woping 2 panels in DBG and they are the 15458 and the 61069

Great looking builds, I especially like how you used lego official stickers on the Rallycross. Welcome to eurobricks! your English is not bad at all.

I love the body style and the V6 engine, do you know how fast it goes?

This is awesome! Like Rishab said I too did not think this was possible. Is there a chance of a video for this ?

Yeah I guess its not that fast.

@Tall Boy Bram Yeah your right, when looking at it now they are power functions wires not EV3 or NXT, my bad Anyway great progress! There is no way I could have done all of that so quickly

Great tank Tommy! I love the blender and cutaway images- videos! One nitpicky thing I dont like about this is the XL motors not covered in the back.

I am guessing no because of the NXT-EV3 wires in the pile.

In my experience an XL motor is best for larger builds that need high torque and slow speed but L motors are good for smaller vehicles that need more speed that torque. M-motors are great for steering for slow vehicles e.g. a crawler, but are not the best with fast vehicles. Hope this helped!
