    For sure 8258 Crane Truck, took about 10 hours of building time.

    Try to find 8258 Crane Truck if you can, it is a great start set. Also, 8043 and 8110 are very nice. PS. I know you did say you do not want small sets, but i strongly recommend 42007 Moto Cross Bike.

    Cool set Paul B, will you be so kind and make a review on it ? Thanks !
  5. Freekysch
    That would be very nice, but i am afraid i do not have a spare room in my house . I will just have to buy more Lego cabinets or, make the model shorter.

    I wanted to tell you guys that i bough the Formula 1 set and i can say it is a very nice set. Only one problem, it is too big for my shelf and i am running out of space to put my display models. Ups ... Overall, i can say it has very good value for the price i got it (lego store price, actually was a gift so i did not pay anything for it).

    Soooo cool, really love all the details ! Great work !

    Well, i only buy sets to display them (i slowly run out of space), i never used them for parts. I generally go for the looks, but i can not say that i mind a set with a complex gearbox (i love 8258, 8043). Thank you all for your help, probably i will buy 42000 because of the looks, and later buy the 42008 too if i have enough money.

    8053 brought me from my dark ages, two years ago. Then, i bought 8265, 8043 and so on.

    So, for some time i am thinking of buying a mid-range lego set, and i got two candidates: 1. 42000 Formula 1 2. 42008 Truck These sets are in the same price range, have almost the same number of pieces and i really do not know what to get. The Formula 1 car looks great, but does not pack a lot of functions and i kinda like trucks. The problem with 42008 is that i really hate the design of it and i hate the green color. On the other side, it has some nice functions and some pneumatic elements. So, what to get ?

    Well, i can tell you that you can find Lego in TRU too, in the mall Le4temps at La Defense. U get there fairly easy by subway. I have visited the Lego shop too, but the PAB wall was not that great, although they had some nice sets there in stock.

    Get 9397 for sure, i really like that set, UW made yet again a wonderful truck.
  13. Freekysch
    I bought mine a month ago and it also says 9392.

    Did not know about German Ebay, i only looked at us version and the models where extremely expensive. I will look and try to buy a full model, it is much easy for me too. Thank you for the tip.

    So, i have a little dilemma. I really want to get my hands on 8285 Tow Truck but i can't find to buy it at a good price so i was thinking ob buying the pieces of Bricklink. Are there some very difficult pieces to get on this set ? I heard that the wheels are expensive and i was wondering if i could replace them with the wheels from 8258/9397/etc.

    Thanks for the photo you made chorlton, 8109 looks waaaay better then 42008. Too bad that the designer of 8109 did not make 42008 too.

    I was just thinking of buying this set so thank you for posting this review. I have two options: 42000 or 42008 and after this review i'm more interested in the truck. I think the scale is the same with the 8109 so, it has a "brother", to say so. One thing bothers me about this set: the front is plain ugly (compared to other Lego trucks 9397 and 8258, that i own). Great review Paul B . PS: can anyone post a picture with 42008 and 8109 side by side ? Thanx in advance.
  21. Freekysch
    Nice review Paul B, enjoyed reading it. I kinda like the set but in my opinion is just a bit overpriced, the price / piece ratio is poor.
  22. Freekysch
    You can always buy some ordinary cabinets and put glass doors on them. I have done so and i do not have any problem with dust.
  23. Freekysch
    We have piece counts for 17 of the sets you own. Using that data we have calculated that you own 9985 pieces! I am a newbie in Lego. PS: all pieces are technic, i have some System too, but the are not listed in my Brickset collection.

    1. Not as much i would like (only build sets when i buy them and i don't build any MOCs so not so much time) 2. I buy arounf 2-3 sets a year, so i spend bwtween 200 - 300 euro on them

    Here is a little update on my Technic collection (and CMF). Here are the sets on display (without the Town and SW which are not build)
