Black would be nice, yellow wouldn't look good when used on certain color sets IMHO

I don't think there's anything TLG can do to stop me from buying every Technic set they release.....it's a sickness....lol

ok, now you're just showing off...lol that is awesome!

Not full RC, only built in functions. With the 8043 in my collection, don't feel the need to RC this one. 8043 is a masterpiece!

Here you go....will also take this opp to show off some of the ol' collection....lol

If you really want to make a point, stop buying their products.....just a thought. We weren't expecting this until sometime in January, so the fact that we have it early makes this oversight easier to digest. I built the first model and will enjoy for a while, then I will look for instructions for B model...not a big deal. What would be really nice is if they would include printed instructions for B models like they used to.....one can dream!

I do! http://www.flickr.com/photos/wr3kl3ss/8322623287/in/photostream I know, I was replying to an earlier quote (my explanation is the second paragraph) and accidentally removed they're name from the quote...as you can see I don't post much to forums....yet! I added wireless receiver with muffler http://www.flickr.co.../in/photostream

I really like the gearbox design. Placing the driving rings inline with each other is clever and simple. However, I'm not a fan of the boom design. The 1x13 beam on page 74 appears to be forced in place. I'm surprised this got past the design team. I bought this a couple of days ago, it's a 1 x 11 with a 1 x 3 on one and and a thin 1 x 5 on the other end both adding one stud length to each side. The thin 1 x 5 is attached through a 5L axle that let's it act as a pivot point. It's not forced at all.

79.99, they just got them this morning

Picked this up today at the Lego store in Houston, TX.......Love it!!!
