True, last time in 42060 from 2017, but it was very small amount. And as I often look at sets as part packs, this one is great for me. It looks good, has parts I do not have in my collection and it is a machine I want (to have and to build as a MOC in the future).

It looks that way. I like this model, I prefere machines/trucks over cars so I will buy this little nice set.

Does anyone know what is going on with rear fenders?? And I have to say, this model looks much better than 42096 Porsche!

Drinking is a hobby if you are interested in what you are drinking. You read about it, expand your knowledge about the procedure, origin, taste and so on. Then yes, you can call it a hobby (not very healthy one but still). Without it, you are just drinking. The same goes with travelling, watching movies/TV shows, watching sport in tv. People often put for example traveling as a hobby. But when you ask something about the places they visited, their culture, history, anything, there is a silence as a response. They simple were on the spot, spend some time in the hotel, maybe took photo or two of some famous place and that is it. Don't want to offtop, so you can just try to ask some larger group of people about their hobby, you will see what is the most frequent answer. Or check CVs and "Interest" section. You could also be ironic with your response, then everything I just said is unnecessary.

In case of numbers: People without a hobby (I was truly amazed how many people actually do not have a hobby - for various reasons) > with a hobby >> Lego as a hobby > Lego Technic as a hobby >> building a lego technic MOCs So creating a Lego Technic MOCs is quite rare :)

I am afraid that this is the result of doing successful business... For company is better if you will buy 3 differents sets (without B-models) rather than one set with many alternative models.

It looks like that way. Those tires are mini version of those: link

Love the new tires, love the scale. I will buy it without waiting for discount!

I am not sure why they use such combination of gears in 42109 and probably in this set. Motors have pritty high RPM, so even when reduced them twiced, the RPM are still very ok and you get twice as much torgue...

Jeep is a must buy for me, but this buggy... It depends on the price. I have problem to stop myself when I see new tires :P

@nicjasno when we can expect instructions for your great Charger?

@Lasse D very interesting example, could you share a link to the topic/MOC?

Yes, so the question is, if the release is delayed, then official presentation is also delayed?

Nice little models, in my favourite scale :D But I have a technical question, in which program you prepare those nice renders of the internals?

If this will be a valid and constructive criticism (and it is easy to veryfiy, because many experienced people see the topic and the criticism and can agree or dissagre with it) then this kind of criticism is definately a welcome one. If adult person cannot handle a constructive criticism, then such person has some more important problems than those related to lego.

I was a witness of those tries ;) As I remember some time ago there was a discussion related to some sort of suspension, which was, lets say "far from basic rules of physics/technology" and probably it was stresing for parts. And I observed more comments about a single post with criticism of this solution than about problem with solution itself.

Most probably posting on insta or FB is easier and faster than in here, what is more giving a like (or not) is also much easier thing than posting on forum where you have to think a bit more about what you want to say and post it. Next thing I observe is lack of criticism (I mean this constructive one). If your MOC has many basic flaws, then you should receive some constructive criticism. What I obserwe is lack of it. And without it, MOC creators will never improve their designs, because there will noone who can point what is clearly wrong in their constructions.

@Lasse D totally nailed it. There is nothing to add to be honest. There is so much more feedback (positive, negative but at least there is one!) on other sites like FB, YT or rebricable than in here... I am here maybe for 2 years, but for me forum slowly becomes the place only for checking the leaks...

Stud.io seems to be more user friendly, but I has some problems when you try to use it to prepare instuctions.

If not from TLG, then Buwizz is your guy ;) I hope soon they show as all what we need :)

Because of the year of production, I would say a soviet truck, but I definitely will not advertise this system. Ukrainian origin is far proper one. Thank you for pointing this out, I edited the first post.

I am back to this project. As this is my favorite one so far and as this truck (among my other MOCs) received the warmest opinions from this rather demanding eurobricks society I decided to prepare instructions for this model:) This is my first MOC available on rebrickable.com, and my first, proper instruction. It is free for all who are willing to build it and have proper parts. I hope you enjoy the building process and final results and you share your opinions about it.

I'm not a fan of pneumatics in practise, but it looks great and with this scale, even better.

I voted. The question is, do you plan to stay "clean" like with Charger or modified parts will be allowed?

I added two manual functions: - ripper tilting (manual) - blade tilting (manual) and prepared video, enjoy :)
