I can live with 1% copy Remember that your MOC can’t have been posted somewhere before the contest.

Apologies accepted!

This topic is used to pose generic building help questions.

Please tone it done a notch or two. And use the report button if you think a user is doing something wrong. A single topic with different questions going on will cause different problems. At least with a dedicated topic, you can also search for a dedicated problem (and Google will find it easier too). One suggestion would be to give the topic a more descriptive title. Let's end the debate about it. We can use the General discussion topic to continue this conversation. Edit: I have created a dedicated topic for building help. Let's see how this develops.

It's not important if it's similar or not. There's no need to point out the similarities using political statements. And new parts are introduced in new sets all the time. Some of them in limited quantities. The blue gear introduced in the Chiron is another example. In a few years, you will most likely hurt yourself stepping on one of the dozens of new differentials scattered around your LEGO room For now, patience is a virtue. Or simply buy the set.

Maybe you did, but you unnecessarily steered this topic into a political direction. Let's not do that here on EB. At least not in the Technic forum. Thanks.

Your guess was wrong. A contest is not about copying (un)official models. Please come up with something original.

Just out of curiosity; what do you think my answer will be?

If we get a backhoe excavator flagship, I'm convinced it will include Control+. But it still is mere speculation. Let's not bring up this argument over and over again. There were already rumors about a new one in 2020. But again...rumors. I do hope your guts are wrong --- Maybe it's time to put the train back on the rails and discuss the 2020 sets. I know, there is not much to discuss, but let's not turn this into the guessing game again. There's always the Speculation Topic to go nuts!

That pretty much sums it up

In Dutch I would say "Wat denk je zelf?!". In English I will stick to "No". The purpose of the contest is to create a MOC not a MOD. Of course, you can use certain techniques, but please refrain from copying official models.

I wouldn't wanna keep you stranded, so by all means....do it! And welcome to EB! Have fun!

The Great Brick War has moved to our recently created Military Section. It's still a work in progress, but don't hesitate to start posting.

This is a lovely little set!

Happy new year! Looking forward to your build!

That is obviously fine. After all, those Bionicle parts look like things you would find in the Wastelands

Apparently, you know your numbers, so it all depends on how you define “biggest”

You can use some, but please don’t turn it into a Bionicle MOC.

Yeah we all have the complete set info with pictures and everything, but we have decided to keep it a secret and don’t discuss it There’s no need to ask for info. News will be discussed here as soon as there is some.

We usually don’t have any EV3 contestants. I’m okay with dongles and sd cards etc to run custom software on the EV3. Other than that, I like to know the specific setup.

Please refrain from making comments like these. First of all, he did include the information, secondly (and more importantly), there is no need for posts like yours....period!

And another great review by @mostlytechnic. This time it's about the 42109 - Top Gear Rally Car.

Great review, and again, nice backdrops! The new differential is very cool. But I am not a big fan of the looks. There's too much going on. Not a fan of the different wheel sizes either. Overall it's likable and it has the new electronic parts. Has the big white frame been used in the Liebherr?

Eurobricks member @mostlytechnic has written a nice review of the 42108 - Mobile Crane.
