I have not decieded yet, for sure I'll try to use olive green, brown and tan liftarms from my collection because why not :) and here is the bearing (bare axle is mounting point)

Hi, finally I have motivation to start building something, after some long dark months. I've start with bearing mostly made of 3L axles and #4 connectors and lot of wheels. Yes, there will be only 2 main wheels Actually agro tires are big enough to fit a bearing inside.

Yeah, they even didn't care to remove copyrights. We live in World where some countries (especially China) can steal intelectual properties, ideas, technologies etc. without any problems. Who cares? I'm not going to make any instructions in the future. Even I don't like to share the details of builds which are on my shelves. It's very demotivating when somebody without any care can steal your work, your pictures to make profit. Just because you can't react, literally you can do nothing to made them f** off your work. Yes, they can make sales even if instructions are free. This society is sick. I think this way of thinking is very motivating ;) Just leave this sick country alone. Anyway, I have left the instructions for free from now. https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-35305/ctan666/rebel-tow-truck/

Well.. It was my first time I did instructions and probably the last one. RIP

I have them both and I can say that I think 42082 is better in case of playing value. Building experience was similar (building last bag of 42055 was boring becasue you have model finished and just adding some visual stuff). It depend on you, if you like cranes go for it. If you prefer mining stuff just take BWE

Yeah, it would be great to start another contest! Maybe some non-military theme like rescue tanks or rescue aircrafts?

Well, it's very dissapointing. It was the one set I wanted to purchase in this wave. But it's just a toy and TLG did such a dumb move. My funds will go to other stuff than plastic bricks. In my opinion voting with wallet should be more convincing than making a shitstorm on the internet.

It looks pretty interesting, but actually how many parts will be Lego original parts? On most pictures you show custom 3d printed stuff and rarely regular liftarms. So all in all it will be Lego built or Lego inspired case?

If balls will fit to the screw because they may not or stuck in larger number. However it look pretty wide.

Hi, I just build something because I got some large technic frames in Medium Azure. Well, 4 buggy motors fit to them very well, so I add a bit of wheels and 2 Buwizz units. So it's really fast. It's build to be undestructible, without falling parts, very tough guy (tested on kids already). So all in all: 4x 5292 Buggy Motor 2x Buwizz 4 boogies susupension Vinyl foil to protect bottom of the vechicle Easy access to recharge ports Openable back hatch It's a nice weather so maybe I'll take some footage how fast it can go. full size pics: https://bricksafe.com/pages/Ctan/azure-kamikaze Vinyl wrap to protect bricks from damage

Well, it happened many times in the past with other colors, for example different shades of yellow, lime, even blue can be more blue or less. I think if all same color parts will be produced in same factory it's much easier to check quality of the color. Because its really hard to match color to other factory even using same dye you can get very different saturations. I know a bit paints business and it mostly depend on dye suppliers. Even same looking dye can give you slightly different color. So all in all it's easy to blame TLG for colors but I think they do a really good job. Of course it could be improved for that money you pay for premium toy

Congratulations to winners, and all participants! Looking forward to next contest!

I think tomorrow we will see what's inside this lime box! Maybe not only new parts for ascethics but also for transmission.. or other useful parts.

Awesome execution of 125p! I love this one Great job, well done.

Thanks , Traction is very ok especially on flat surfaces.

24 : 10 30 : 6 47 : 4 51 : 3 7 : 2 18 : 1 Lot of great entries! Congratulations for all participants, it was really good time spent

61. 9398 Baby Car Features: HoG steering (front axle) working V8 engine 2 live axles suspension Chassis digital file (Stud.io), just in case if you like to build Boss Baby car : https://bricksafe.com/files/Ctan/9398-mini/mini-9398-chassis.io Video Discussion topic:

Seriously? Why do you lie? You think that on Lego dedicated forum for afols nobody will see clone brand liftarms and not yet released yellow panels.. Shame...

Ok, I think it's finished. (I have forgot to replace 12L axle to 10L in fake engine shaft but I noticed it just before posting pics) and bonus with forbidden ballon tires

I like it a lot!

I've build a chassis in stud.io If you like to check how it's made just grab the .io file.

2nd option with half-pin look best. Spare wheel made this model too bulky imho. Overall it look really cool!

I like how you used all the panels! Great job!

Yeah, there was a version with panhard rod but it took too much space so I kept 6L links. I did lot of compromises there to make it look similar to 9398 and working in such tight space. I'll do free digital file so anyone see all the stuff going on there. And yes, it work because of slack

Yup, that's a good idea rear: front:
