[TRIPLE] Let's Go Gliding !
Jim replied to Seasider's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
If this were a real set, I would be running to the stores right now -
I totally missed your post. Those panels look awesome! Most parts you can find on BrickLink. The thread attachments are hard to get at the moment. You've already included a link to BrickLink. Are you aware that you can buy parts via Bricklink? http://www.bricklink.com/search.asp?itemID=38102&colorID=11

LEGO Appreciation at Work
Jim replied to NevynPA's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Slightly off topic, because it doesn't involve dating etc I have Bricklinked the 10179 MF and Cavegod's AT-AT, totalling around 12000k parts ordered.....all delivered to my work address spreaded over several weeks. The lady at the front desk probably lost some weight during the process. She wondered whether I was building a house -

This conversation is very amusing LoL You should probably go all-in with the 42009, although she might think you're compensating for certain shortcomings -
1. What technic set(s) you're planning on getting for the holidays. Still have the 41999, 42000 and several smaller sets unopened, but I am tempted to buy one of the 2013 sets to write a review. 2. Will you be spending the time-off building a new set or MOCing? Due to two upcoming reviews I haven't found any time to work on my EV3 Wheel-e MOC. Hope to find some time to make some progression. 3. Neither, will be sorting/cleaning/arranging my huge parts list Not this year anymore 4. Gonna read and comment on ALL Technic Threads on EB (Really???) Been there, done that 5. Something else ...? Hoping to get a new DLSR, so experimenting and shooting pictures!

EV3 Expansion Set
Jim replied to x1050us's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Hi, Welcome to EB!! There's a topic for general questions like this, so you don't need to start a separate topic: http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=87371 It all depends on what you want to do. My suggestion would be to start with the Retail set and go from there. Decide what you want to build and which parts you need. You can get separate parts from Bricklink or you can still buy the expansion set. There's no real answer to your question. It very much depends on what your goal is. (I will be merging this topic with the General Discussion later) -
Voting will start early next week. Possibly already on Sunday. If you are unsure about Brickshelf, just use Flickr or Bricksafe.

I have a similar question from another member. He is building a modular set of vehicles where the power (motors, battery box and receiver) are interchangeable between the vehicles. He asks whether it's allowed to build three vehicles and one power module. Ultimately I am the one making the decisions, but I would like to know what other members think. @That_Lego_Guy: You also switching your battery unit, right? As far as I am concerned both questions will be answered with "Yes, that's allowed", but I would like to hear if anyone's got objections, since it's a borderline case.
