  1. PS don't get me wrong; I am not saying you are a liar....I am just wondering what you do with your parts?!
  2. Exactly. Same goes for stickered parts. TLG simply cannot sticker every part, because a stickered part becomes a new element. If they do print every part, they will have to build a new warehouse for parts which are only used in a single set.
  3. Rest assured. TLG is well aware of our predicament, so they will be releasing more sets in the current colors. Maybe we simply need to be patient, something which can be hard for us AFOLs.
  4. What does contacting LEGO mean in your case? Shouting really hard? Sending an email? Filling out a form on their website? Trying to call? Please elaborate. As other have stated; pick up the phone. I am pretty sure there's someone at the other end answering your call Other than that; how can say that LEGO won't replace your parts, while you haven't been able to contact them. That is indeed misleading. Another question; In a previous topic you stated that you haven't got a very big LEGO collection (if I recall correctly), yet you have three broken motors (and other broken parts). The chance of that happening is pretty slim. Something doesn't add up. I have lots of motors and I have never had a broken one.
  5. #1 connector....how could I forget. Of course, you are right. Half width liftarms.....would be nice, not necessary (imho).
  6. Exactly. There are quite a few I don't like, so I simply skip those.
  7. Interesting question. Rebrickable obviously will be able to generate such a report. Not sure if it's readily available. I can ask Nathan. Before we do that, I think we need to define which parts (or categories) we need in order to build a colored Technic MOC. Panels (complete range) Liftarms (complete range, 2L - 15L) Flexible axles (different lengths) Angled connectors (#2 - #6) Perpendicular connectors (2L and 3L) Axle Connector 2L (Smooth with x Hole + Orientation) Pin Connector Round 2L with Slot (Pin Joiner Round) Since I am not much of a MOC-er I might have missed some parts, but these are the essential parts in a certain color for making a good looking colored Technic MOC.
  8. There has been quite some discussion about the new color schemes and color palettes. This topic is to discuss these new colors....we have been asking for for years
  9. Let's not forget that TLG follows trends seen in other toys. Which means that bringing bright new colors is done for a reason....not simply because they can. Splitting the topic is difficult, since we are discussing 2017 set colors as well. So let's end the general color discussion here and I will create a new topic right away. Proceed...
  10. They have indeed listened and there will be more "colored" sets in the future adding more parts to the different color palettes. If we continue to discuss the color palette, maybe it's better for me to split the discussion into a separate topic.
  11. All of the past contests are in the Technic Index, so there's no need to use the search function
  12. I am not sure this topic is going anywhere. I somehow feel it will just be a rant topic. I will probably close this topic, so we can keep the discussion in the MOD topic. Feel free to copy the OP to the MOD topic.
  13. All I know is that Lepin has them in Green and White.... Just kidding, I don't have any additional info, but they indeed look cool. Would be nice if there were instructions in the app. I am in doubt whether to get a new iPad Pro 10,5 or 12,9 inch. Can't make up my mind.
  14. I am not sure either (about the separate topic), but I am not against it. Maybe @Milan can chime in. Using my picture is perfectly fine
  15. And I proudly present....the Pizza Racer XL
  16. Hmmm too bad you can't start testing. Maybe your colleague can test it for you He also mentions version 2.0, which is available via Testflight. Or is that version 1.5?
  17. Very nice. I will be picking up a new iPad soon, so I can't wait to get started with Swift Playgrounds.
  18. Home and Education are the same brick. The only difference can be the firmware (if I am not mistaken). The education version supports datalogging. It could be that Swift needs that. However, you can upgrade a Home brick with Education firmware. I will be testing it soon. True! That would be awesome.
  19. They do contain a lot of printed parts, but it's not by default, unfortunately.
  20. Please stop bumping old topics, just to say Wow!
  21. Exactly That sounds weird
  22. Yup, to quote one of the designers..... "This vehicle will tow the vehicle that was towing your vehicle" So this vehicle is as rough as it gets in the tow truck department
  23. Or maybe you didn't read my comment about the number 067 ... You didn't read my comment either?!
