Technic 2018 Set Discussion
Bartybum replied to Jim's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
But like... it’s a forklift. What were you expecting? There’s only so much they could do and they pretty much nailed it. Or do you generally find forklifts average? I agree with @Johnny1360 in saying that this 2H is one of the top we’ve had in recent times. I reckon it’s easily on par with 2015 and 2016. -

I don’t see how you can tell it’s 5L from the leaks. It’s so heavily skewed and there isn’t really any other piece nearby to compare lengths with. -

I think it’s 3L, looking at @efferman‘s drawing and 3D model. -

Significantly easier attachment to gears and therefore simpler valve motorisation. This is insanely useful to us -

Lord almighty this set’s gonna cost like $600AUD+ with the Bugatti license -
He’s not doing himself a favour by buying the instructions instead of trying to come up with a solution himself. I like what you’ve got so far @Midlife-crisis. Keep going regardless of what others say, it’s a good challenge.

If it’s 16+ then it’s probably intended as a collector’s item like 42056 was. I think it’s safe to assume it’s a sports car. -
[MOC] [CUSTOM] X-Wing Star-fighter Variant
Bartybum replied to jachasedesigns's topic in LEGO Star Wars
I dig how it’s only got two engines. It looks like a sleek evolution of the design. I wish they used this in the sequels -
I’m almost certain there will be one.

Considering we have both a licensed Volvo set and a licensed truck for this year I think that’s impossible -
For the buildable figure line I’d love the following (ones most wanted are marked with *): TCW/PT - Captain Rex* - B1 Battle Droid* - Droideka* - General Kalani - Magnaguard Droid - Savage Opress - Aqua Droid Rebels - Ahsoka Tano* - The Grand Inquisitor OT - IG-88 - Imperial Probe Droid EU/Legends - Darth Revan

Oh lord I really hope they won’t have that ridiculous “don’t show the functions in action” policy that they had last year. -

Thank you so much for being a part of this. Me getting told off by Jim for acting as Jim telling someone else acting as Jim to not act as Jim is just pure Jimception at its finest. Regarding the sets, I don’t see the new valve people are talking about. I see the gear but the rest is hidden behind the watermark so it’s almost impossible to see. I can see some blue but I don’t know whether that’s pneumatic tubes connected to the supposed valve. The first time I saw 42080 I thought the gear was to rotate the cabin and boom (from the angle I thought it kinda looked like they were slightly out of line with the front chassis). Although thinking about it I couldn’t think of a reason for them being able to. -

Conveyor belt

Make the conveyor much longer and of a thinner material, and it’ll begin to sag down in the middle. -
