Anyone in Finland shopping for it now, it's available at verkkokauppa.com (Pirkkala) for 79,90 Eur. Only 2 in stock right now.

Just ordered from the Finnish verkkokauppa.com for 199,90 Eur. A pretty good price, but they don't have it in stock at the moment, so now I have to wait a little...

Welcome back! I knew you would do the Beetle as soon as I first saw it!

Congratulations! Luckily it's summer, so I'm not that bummed it's not November yet :). And when it's November, I will not be bummed at all!

I'm so happy here. It's below 25 and the sun is shining.

Good work! I'm also pretty convinced that you will be successful in the campaign. It's picking up speed at the last minute, so high hopes!

All right, Sariel's video is up.

I can also recommed the pull-back racers. You can do fun stuff with the motor, that you can't do with ordinary small sets.

That double PTO is great. Especially as it might have been difficult to mod that, since the chassis is cramped with the steering.

Make it Segway-style, it's really fun to do! Of course, you would also need to order the gyro sensor.

I like that last one. Any machine that walks will do just fine.

Thanks Sariel. This is a modder's dream. You can add motors and functions without worrying you'll ruin the looks. It will just look better and better, the more stuff you add!

This was really less than useful.

A physical controller is a must at some point, I agree. But you have to start somewhere, and the basic infrastructure is in place with Buwizz.

A backer here. 9 days left and I'm starting to worry. As an AFOL, I don't think there's anything in the product that would prevent success. I think it's visibility. You should take every action you can to increase it and let people know you are there. You are not getting enough followers in Facebook and you are in Instagram with zero posts. There's a 9000 people Lego Technic group in Facebook that has SBrick stuff all over it. I browsed a few pages but could not find anything from you. I know these groups are not very fond of manufacturers coming in and advertising. But maybe someone who's active there could share your campaign again to put up a fight with SBrick there?

They are messing with your brain. Do not give in!

...and the street price will be even lower. Fortunately.

I think it fits well with the theme of construction, and recently mining. I would welcome something like it, maybe slightly bigger than the 42049 Mine Loader to work well with the tracks.

Small world!

Game development contests are fun. Have you been in a game jam? At least during Global Game Jam, there is a site in Budapest. I'm involved in the Finnish chapter, my own game jam is one where the developers create games using TV technology, such as robotic cranes, dollies and virtual studio equipment.

Anyone tried/doing live coding? I did an animation workshop once with a few fellas from the University of Utrecht and they were trying live coding for a few days. It was an experiment of maximum fun! Also, as creative as it gets.

The instruction manual is going to be like a book to me when I was a child. So difficult to keep from reading the last page... I am NOT going to take the instructions and look at how it does the sorting, until I am there with the build.

I did assembler back in the day. Now I can't be bothered, which is actually a shame.

"We each have our own lack of system", I'm going to use that phrase at work from now on

Sooo... How often do you just happen to leave it on and not put it back? ;)
