I did add one to my bag and ordered it, if I get it great if not oh well. I still have a few bricklink orders to replace the chassis of 9398 from red to black and outside of the 6 orange panels the rest is easy to find. It is a great set and would of liked to get one for sure but its lego and part of the fun of lego is how flexable you can be with it. The instructions will probably be released soon if they aren't already and if people missed out on the limited set/new colours they can still create it with other parts.

I tried to order one this morning but alas out of stock :( I guess I will miss out on it, I will probably now try to just bricklink it and replace the blue with orange for a general lee type crawler. A few parts aren't in orange but I can figure that out.

Unopened sets waiting to be built
jadedomg replied to Jim's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I have 42006 in the box still since the house is going through renovations and I have no where to build or display anything. -
I will be buying one for sure, and I will be finding a permanent home for it on my shelves because I like the design so much.
-
I can't wait for this set to come out, I plan to replace all of the red beams with black or grey. It will be one of the sets that I will keep together that is for sure.

SR-71 Blackbird
jadedomg replied to Sariel's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
This is really good. The simulator is just downright amazing if I had that out at home everyone would be playing with it. -
Damn that is really great it looks amazing in dark blue. I can't wait to add it to my collection.

http://store.rc4wd.com/Retread-17-Commercial-114-Semi-Truck-Tires_p_733.html I was looking at these tires, they should fit on the 62 x20 tire hub and might be good for a dump truck/garbage truck moc. If anyone has tried these yet or does in the future im curious how it works out if you get to it before I do!

Lego Technic 2h 2013
jadedomg replied to sama's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Compared to the quad bike it is a poor value, the quad bike is $30, and yes has smaller tires and probably 100 less parts, but following the pricing lego does (the red jet was $50 US, $65 CDN) It would mean the monster truck would be $65 CDN and that really is not a good value at all, even with the rare parts. I imagine I will be able to bricklink the set for $20-30 under MRSP for the set even with shipping. I am just thinking lego overvalued this set from what we have seen photo wise, comparing 9394(jet) to this set I would walk away from the monster truck everytime at that price. Even if I got it at retail american price I don't think it is worth it. Personal opinions are just that and the only reason the price on this set bothers me is I actually like the set, but the price makes it very hard to swallow as a purchase.- 902 replies

Lego Technic 2h 2013
jadedomg replied to sama's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
This is one set I am considering dropping off my wanted list just because of price, it will end up being $60-65CDN and I would rather put those funds towards buying a duplicate of a larger set as I don't see many parts I like i it and the wheels are unimpressive for a monster truck. mostly due to what I would consider a unjustified price, much like the dirtbike that is $50CDN, I will buy it but only if it is on sale for at least 20% off i will not be paying full retail for it due to budget concerns.- 902 replies

I missed out on 7191 so I am looking forward to this. If it flops lego likely will not do it again much like they learned with the legends line. If it succeeds who knows what the future brings us.

Much better model now, where the original enforcer was just for appearance, this one has a lot of nice things going on underneath. Much much better. It would be great to see one brickbuilt. Unfortunately I don't think cuusoo will make this set due to the way it has gone for models, and we have not seen a single technic model so far and its high part count. I love the chasis and it shows a lot of care in the way you built it.

I love dump trucks! I might have to pull apart a few sets to build this one to have on my shelf for a little while.- 12 replies

8878 vs 88000

You should never ever run lithium batteries all the way down, you can end up killing the batteries to the point they won't take a charge at all. -
Lego Technic 2h 2013
jadedomg replied to sama's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I am guessing $300CDN for the crane, and $180CDN for the service truck. I might just have to wait and hope a amerifriend can get me them so I can keep my budget in line.- 902 replies

How much do you spend on Technic?
jadedomg replied to mobi's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Figuring out what new sets are coming out this year, I will be spending at least $1000 CDN + whatever the cost of the new boss 4x4 crawler is hopefully. That isn't including anything I might buy off bricklink, or any duplicates I might buy if I really like the part selection. I can almost see myself buying a second green service truck and F1 car which will make my bank account cry.
