SAM1626

Not to be negative but this set is kinda lame I agree with @Lipko it doesn't look very nice as a model, and although it is a cool idea I don't feel it quite hit the mark, 42179 was open and you could see inside it that was fine, but this set could use to be less blocky, although it is a great idea, and I don't want to insult whoever worked hard to make this model, it could have been done better. I personaly love the cars, that's why I love Technic but I try to support other branches of technic like this, I guess I am not supportive enough, but I feel there is nothing wrong with not liking this its not that you have bad taste @Lipko.

Same!!!!!!!!!!!! I have organizer bins, but after taking stuff out and assembling things... I'm too lazy to disassemble them and put parts back in the bins... then when I need a part that I don't have many of I have to look through ever single bucket of legos I have... "where'd I put it again???". this is why we monthly teardown all idle builds in sight!

...speechless... Sad I didn't see this earlier this is amazing, the attention to detail, the features... love it, this is truly amazing.

So who is too curious for their own good and bought it already? Hopefully upon its arrival I will not regret my decisions... hoping for good piece quality, no weak spots no brittle corners... Cheers to anyone else who is buying it to test quality.

Too relatable!!!!!!!!! I am practically addicted to buwizz 3.0 pro. I literally don't have enough buckets to store them. after counting them I now know that I have 132 batteries

I understand not having the parts, but good luck finding some!

@Paul B Technic Piece count? Dimensions? Instructions? Understandable. For the longest time I didn't have differentials that weren't in a kit but now I have a few hundred, plastic, metal, carbon fiber. When I made the decision to buy them I realized how much I needed them. Also on the front of the engine I see you used a 42034 piece instead of 42127 piece, also on back of engine to rear axle you chose 42127 instead of 26287, reason for these? Otherwise, cool model!

Oh My. This is a great idea I tried something like this when I was younger but when I was moving many years ago a vandal broke into one of my storage units and set it on fire when he realized he was already caught in the act. sadly this unit contained many of my childhood items (mostly legos) and I lost 2 8071 kits one a recent gift to me, and I also lost many other kits mocs and childhood notebooks (also full of mostly lego ideas) but a few days later I found him trying to sell 2 of my notebooks full of moc instructions online and he eventually (after a court date) paid $400 for damage, and went to jail for vandalism but I never had the heart to buy another 8071 because I still have the instructions for the one I customized because I had left them on a bookshelf and they had wound up in a different unit than the one vandalized (the vandalized one was ~450 miles away) so I just bought as many of the other kits that had burned as I could afford but now seeing this moc I am already shopping for another one. Good idea though, post instructions soon?

yes but more pneumatics 42128 had a lot of linear acuators where there could have been more pneumatic cylinders and fix the turn table for the crane arm because the gears skip often

I personally would like to see a remake of the 8285 pneumatic tow truck: https://brickset.com/sets/8285-1/Tow-Truck#google_vignette maybe a different color and more play functions

Yes please!

FR the color is amazing and the tires are much better I personally love how lose the suspension is in the g wagon but that's just my opinion. And from what I have heard of the defender there is many problems with the gearbox.

Me with very very biased opinions thinks that the g wagon is far superior for many reasons. (they may not stand well under scrutiny)

Glad we could help

pneumatics in trains is a good idea but not always very efficient but I'm sure train moderator JopieK could tell us more for our train fans
