  1. Let's not go down this path. Otherwise I will be opening a new can of worms, or the same can of worms again.
  2. By wait too much you mean wait another two years or so? The Merc will still be around for some time.
  3. That's why you always need to have a banana nearby
  4. Very nice creation!! The pictures are okay, don't worry. The 42000 is a fine model for C-modeling!
  5. Wow, that's very impressive! I love the addition of LEDs on the Grampian by the way.
  6. We already knew Dokludi can replicate, but apparently he can also alternate! Check out his alternate model for the 42039 - 24 Hours Race Car. Imagine this intimidating look in your rear view mirror... It comes with Free building instructions!!
  7. OMG that first picture is sexy!!! That's one mean look. Can't believe you ended up with only a few parts. I hope you don't mind that I promote it to C-model Great job on the building instructions!!
  8. Same here When I simply build the model I tend to average about 250 parts an hour. Since I usually take a lot of pictures, I do a lot less. Which is fine, since it's not about speed, but about having fun.
  9. Huh, do you have pictures Allan?! Can you send me? I will mail you. Where are the pictures? Me needs the picturezzzz The Nuremberg Toy Fair is where the new models will be presneted. Usually images will surface after that. However, not publicly, like Allan said. So, it's simply a matter of being patient. And no, I don't get early access or something, so I see them when you do.
  10. I know, but that still counts as a present
  11. It's the normal price, so it's not a bargain. Then again, it's a great X-mas present
  12. Depends on where you live. It's a bit steep for The Netherlands, but it's not ridiculous.
  13. This happens every year. It has nothing to do with the 2016 sets. Let's end the discussion about past sets and personal preferences. Let's stick to the new sets!
  14. Buying and building new sets is a good way to acquire knowledge of new parts and techniques. And like I said; if you want to build a car, buy the 42039 and possibly another car. If you want to build a truck, buy one or two trucks. That will help you out.
  15. Ahhhh that makes more sense Working with LDD is a good way to design a model and find out what you will be needing. Buying a couple of sets like the one you want to design (car or truck for example) might even be a better way (like Lipko said). That way you will acquire most of the necessary parts to get you started.
  16. If you have 500.000 pieces, I find it hard to believe you have a problem determining which parts you need to acquire and how to acquire them.
  17. 500.000?! Or did you mean 50.000? I think it pretty much depends on what you want to build.
  18. No not like this. Quit using colors and simply use black text.
  19. Hehe For starters you could get yourself a tripod or mount of some sorts for your Lazy Note I reckon that will help you a lot, since you don't need to hold the device.
  20. The first two are videos from my review
  21. That will be a most welcome addition to the treads. Although I'd rather see treads made from a different material (more like rubber).
