  1. It was already mentioned. It is the 7th function!
  2. They simulate the "hooks" that are in the real machine, used to load the disassembled parts on trucks.
  3. Good pictures here: https://www.promobricks.de/lego-42100-technic-liebherr-r9800-bauma-2019/78977
  4. The new LA's looks to be 17 studs long full retracted, including brackets. The current LA's are 13 studs retracted - 18 extended. I suppose the new LA's will be 24 studs when extended.
  5. It looks to be exposed at the Bauma now, so we can expect more photos today !
  6. One of the best Lego Volvo loaders! I like it a lot.
  7. O.T. question: how do you calculate wheel dimensions? Thank you!
  8. That means that there are already 9 hidden sets between the Liebherr (42100) and the Landrover (42110) ?
  9. Very very beautiful model. It does not look as a C-model, I don't see any compromise due to lack of parts. Very good job!
  10. I like it very much. Why so many motors? What does this truck will do after completed? My Arocs works very good with 1 XL motor for driving / tip and 1 servo for steering. Looking forward to see the progress!
  11. The suv is black or DBG, with red chassis and black wheels. The truck is red, white a and maybe LBG, the car looks medium blue. The crane is yellow, it looks to have the long linear actuator.
  12. I don't like the real machine, but this model is a must-buy in my opinion. It looks strong and functional, so I will build it for fun and to learn something new, and then disassemble it and use the parts for an other excavator. Liebherr is a good choice, so we can have white machines and not yellow as usual. I expect a big dumper in the future, if the collaboration between Liebherr and Lego will go on in the next years... We were waiting for a big excavator bucket... and now we have a front shovel bucket... and it is DBG... great!
  13. Did anybody try these tires on lego rims? They are 1.9” so they should fit on 56mm rims, but the dimension I see in the photo is 48mm (inner hole) Option 1 (1.9”, 96mm) https://www.ebay.it/itm/1-9-1-10-96mm-OD-Rubber-Tyres-for-RC-Rock-Crawlers-RC-4wd-AXIAL-SCX10-CC01-4PCS/223220301269?hash=item33f8f77dd5:g:eBYAAOSwab1b4Q-T:rk:3:pf:0 Option 2 (1.9”, 95mm) https://www.ebay.it/itm/5pcs-RC-1-9-Rock-Crawler-Tires-Tyres-95mm-Fit-RC-4wd-Axial-1-9-Beadlock-wheels/173382540219?hash=item285e679bbb:g:8AoAAOSwWwtbM1Jp:rk:3:pf:0 Option 3 (1.9”, 90mm) https://www.ebay.it/itm/5pcs-1-9-Rock-Crawler-Tires-Tyre-90mm-Fit-RC4WD-Axial-1-9-Beadlock-Wheels-Rims/282605555574?hash=item41cc9a8f76:g:sEQAAOSwIIxZjAJY:rk:1:pf:0
  14. Very well done! I especially like the bodywork. Great!
  15. The production was discontinued some years ago, so I don't think they will produce a licensed model of a thing of the past...
  16. Speculations or some kind of confirmed info? Backhoe loader is an excavator? I'm quite sure Volvo does not produce backhoe loaders.
  17. Thank you for your answers, yes I was meaning the large treads. So I will try some wheels with tyre.
  18. Hello! I have a question about sprocket wheels. Now we have 3 dimensions: the small one (about 3L), the regular one (about 5L), and the new big one (about 7L) Are there any other mid-sized wheels/sprocket wheels for the technic treads? So other ways to make tracked vehicles without using these 3 sprocket wheels? Thank you.
  19. Surely it is not the Lego version.. the rims are also "not Lego". It looks the red panels have a differend shade of color, maybe this is the difference between original and fake parts...
  20. Bugatti was released in May or June, so can we consider a spring wave? The december sets are the next years sets.
  21. Very good looking and detailed! Many compliments
  22. Hello! This is my latest model: Volvo EC750E in 1:22 scale. Starting point is the 8043 "ultimate" with 6 motors for 6 functions. The undercarriage is 90% the same, I only had to make it 4 studs longer, and added some details. It also has tracks tensioners. 2 of the motors are hidden in the panel-built arm. In this way, I removed the universals joints in the pivot of the main boom, so it works more fluently, and the arm can be thinner (3 studs at the beginning, then 5 studs). The LAs are a bit shorter for this excavator, but I'm quite satisfied by the range of movement. The battery box is on the back and acts as a counterweight. The stickers are home-made. Pneumatic tubes are fake of course... I will make a video in the next days (and better photos). Happy new year to everybody!
  23. Very good job! I Always think that motorized models should have a "technic" heart, this model is more brick-built than technic, but it has a lot of functions anyway!
