Long Story: I have a strange problem, maybe anyone with the all terrain truck can help.I buyed this model second hand and take it down. Weeks later I build it. And I remain a single 94925 Light Bluish Gray Technic, Gear 16 Tooth. I counted the parts, but the model was lighly moded (LED), so I can not say,if there where more then the 13 gears of this type. And the end, the model has no missing features. I can turn the crane, rise and lower it, whinch working, support works. I can steer, it drives. So I tried to count the gears, the 5 periphicals where easy, but the rest in the gearbox are partly invisible - without to tear it down again. Short Test: The only thing, where I am sceptic: the 6-wheel drive. When I lift it up and drives in the air, the front wheels are moving fast, and the others are moving hardly. whenn I take down the front wheels and the back wheels are in the air, they moving fast. Is this normal? I don't understand the direffentials not realy...

Sorry for digging this out. Had the same problem.Used a newly friction pin and the whole whinch mechanism stuckted. For me I tried two way: First: Replace the friction Pin and the 5-axe connected to, with a stopper and a 7-axe. The other way was to modify the friction pin with a knive. Tried to soften the friction while spinning, even with a motor, but that stucked to.

It's Technic, I don't remember any car there with a windscreen. Windscreens are a feature of the creator experts modells. And the windscreens are produced not as special parts for one modell, but in mind to fit in the system to use it sometimes for other modells. Especially the supercars have very curvy low profile windscreens??

Tried it with the 75114: First Order Stormtrooper and can say: No. It's a to bulky and to stiff. Maybe the size equals a huge guy (with armor), this Cars are not a space wonder for wikings. Even without Legs, the Roofs are to low, there will be the porsche with the highest. Think the figures need to be 10 % smaller at least, so maybe a female Character may fit (without legs). But for Lambo I do not see this

The Ultimate Car ist a big Question. For me, the Ferrari SP3 is to new. They need more time to construct such a modell, what I googled is that this car is a last years presentation? With electric mobility raising, the hyper car market is under presure. For those with petrol-engines. Most companys are to small, I think too. Before this year my bet was Audi R8. But production end is already in planing, and whole VW is going to be electric. Bugatti is sold, no clue what they do with Lamborghini, but another Porsche or Lambo are lame. Maybe older Ferrari or McLaren? But both have modells in midscale. A eletric Hypercar is no option: No engine, no gear, no differencial. No thanks. Would not surprised, if nothing will be launched. The Bugatti got extra time.

Got 3 more connectors, because the supporter did not read the whole case. Of course they have the wrong color. Watched on youtube at tlg-channel about the new lifesize lambo. at beginning there where the old clips of the preview of the model, with the right colered pieces.... Short story, I will go on, with the support question. but next message will be at the end of the year.

Technic 2021 Set Discussion
dirkberlin replied to LvdH's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Yes, I noticed too, that lego presenting a lot of themes, but not technic. But it's okay, for technic is a good advice to wait for better prices. So it's not that important if you wait 1-2 months more. Or was there some exclusive bigger technic set in the last years? -
When you buy really old USED sets, you get misscoloring. I often like to buy used sets. Recently I bought a Arocs. Build as B-Model, few parts missing. But cheap enough to buy some parts on bricklink (and loved it to find some parts in my boxes to complete it). So it costs me the half of a bricklink used modell and i only missed some stickers. Maybe I print a few somehow.

My Sian was boght in November, build it in December and now I am in contact with lego support. It's very slow nowadays. On my first question with the known problem, I got a reply, that there is no repair kit, but lego will send me some connectors. instantly reply that it's not only the connectors, it's the panel and the lift arm to, later realize, that there are to connector types, so at the end wrote a second reply a moment later. Yesterday news from lego. On the first mail I got a statement, that discolouring is a normal isue. All parts have it, and it will no change, to send me new items, because they have all the same shade. But my photos will be send to quality controll. Moments later I get a reply for the second mail: Oh sorry, I send you the parts free (and in the order section I can see it, I will get 10 liftarms, 1 panel 22, 1 panel 21, 1 conector with pin, so the amount isn't very usefull). Same day, I get the connector with cross axle in my mailbox: They are still the same as in the box, so needless. I've got 3 colors of that small liftarm in the box, so the 10 liftarms maybe helpful. The rest is for colorchecking. If they are right, I need to order more, but I bet, they are not. Maybe Lego did not produced any new lime item, and they maybe use them untill they are empty?
