  1. Hmm, the B models is nice indeed, the function where the front headlights come up is pretty cool ! However, i expected more from UW, he designed some awesome models in the past, this one is ... not so great.
  2. Although the subject was already mentioned before, it is hard to decide what makes a flagship a must have. For me, the thing that matters the most is the looks of the set and then the complexity and number of functions. For example, I LOVE 8285 Tow Truck, it is one of my favorite flagships, even if it does not have a lot of gears or even a gearbox. However, for the 1st place i can nominate 8043 and 8258. They are both so different but they bring out all of the attributes that a Technic flagship should have: looks, functions, playability ! Another very good set is 8275, even if the design is not brilliant, this is a must have for any Technic set collector, it was the first set in which PF appeared and the combination of studded and studless beams is just perfect. I do not think TLG will ever make a Bulldozer so beautiful (i am talking mostly about the front blade here). 42009 is my latest purchased set, it is very nice and big, but in my opinion it is not in the same league with the above mentioned.
  3. Super, love the way this truck looks . Also, nice use for the 8285 Metallic Silver wheels, they look spot on !
  4. Stunning creation ! Big like for the looks, you captured the real model perfectly.
  5. I like the idea very much and your MOC looks very good. I have a feeling that the tracks are too tight, but maybe that is just the way the photos are done.
  6. Well, you should never be ashamed for playing with LEGO ! That is a fact . Your MOCs are superb, so I think whoever sees them will be impressed.
  7. Let's not jump to conclusions, i don't think keeping official sets on display is `lame`. I too keep my sets on display, just because i don't have the time to build MOCs. Maybe the word `lame` is too strong for that ...
  8. It is a great set, IF you put 3rd part wheels on it ! With the standard wheels it look kind of boring, but maybe that is just my opinion.
  9. I do not know how the rhino on 8041 looks but the one on 8285 is just awesome ! Goes with the theme of the truck perfectly !
  10. I must admit that the red - black color combination works way better on the bike then the original colors. However, i can not wait to buy the bike. Congrats for all the work put in to replicate those models.
  11. 42006 is a good set if you missed 8043. It has a nice price for what you get, the functions work good, the looks are ok. For me, it was a good buy even if i have the 8043.
  12. I loooove it ! I wish it was real and i could be there. Great MOC
  13. Yeap, it means that it will have 6/8 pistons in the V shape.
  14. Thanks for the awesome reviews ! Beside the motorbike which i like very much and will surley buy it(i find the color choice to be kind of odd, but that is ok), i can't say i am in love with any other models. The 42039 is ok-ish, i don't like the design at all nor the functions :(
  15. Haaaa, veeeery cool MOC ! It is great when i see other stuff made from Technic then cars and trucks !
  16. For an offroad truck i would say go for the crawler. It has RC functions, has big tires ...
  17. Very cool looking truck. Love the design and the functions as well. Do you plan on building a trailer for it?
  18. Bulk packs of Technic parts are ok, but depending on what the pack contains. Also you can also use Bricklink for some specific parts.
  19. I think my favorite Lego Technic model is 8285 in matter of looks. I think it looks great and somehow like a Model Team design. 8258 is great looking too and it uses panels mainly, so that is ok too !
  20. The main thing that i bought from 2014 are the Container Truck, Bulldozer and the Desert Racer. If i have enough funds, i will buy the Volvo too. PS. Welcome back Paul
  21. How big is the pick-up ? 42000 scale or smaller ? The pick-up is on my wanted list is on my list, but i really want to get it at a discount price.
  22. A crawler crane would be awesome, but not in yellow :D.
  23. Wow, nice C models and yes, i have to agree that this is way better than the B model of the set. Really like the looks of the cab, what sort of truck did you have in mind when you designed it ?
  24. All looks great and i cannot wait to see this mean machine in action ! .
