Still, thumbs up for looks (9395), it looks very "American." I see many of these where I live, though mostly in white. Found some info about the logging truck. Requires batteries: 6 x LR6 not included Product description: The huge logging truck is ready to lift all! Use the control box Power Functions on the side of the truck to lower, raise and rotate the arm and unfold motorized outriggers. Then turns and opens the clamp to lift the thickest trunks. This huge model also includes a direction that works, doors and hood that open, revealing an engine with pistons that work, this model is larger than life! Turns into a container truck with snowplow.

Really, there is no other secret function in 9395 (like 8109 had). This truck is kind of "boring," it is just a 2011 black version of 8289 b-model with a V4. (I swear the box cover said the tow fork could fold back and forth and lift up and down, independently!

Is this really where the motor goes?

Some guy already has LEGO 9395. http://www.setechnic.com/Forum/topic5042-105.html

Because the Official Unimog 8110 thread is not really popular anymore, I am going to post my findings here. I don't know if you guys no but I found an interesting picture of the prototypes of 8110. Here is a picture of the prototypes. (I can't believe they scrapped the black rim idea!!![look at the third Unimog from the left]) And here is the already known image.

Ya, I just added them yesterday (the larger pictures). (tow truck) Well, not really. Then the model would be pretty small and I don't like small models.

Does anybody have any speculations about the b model of 9397 logging truck? What if its a tow truck model just like 8285? It could just work with the LA raising the boom and the MLA raising the towing platform. Obviously it would be a lot smaller and a yellow boom would look pretty ugly on a tow truck. Is it just me or do I sound crazy?

Got it!

No, no! Sorry for not explaining properly. The gears are used to drive the gearbox. The gearbox is then used to drive the 4 functions. The 12t and 20t are not attached to the stabilizers.

Hi, I'm new. I don't know if you guys already know this but I found out some cool thing about the log loader 9397. The stabilizers are deployed using knobs. Is it possible that it can lift the truck(like 8297)? Another thing is the m-motor is hiding behind the 2 panels. There is a 12t/20t gear reduction added to it. Then there is a 16t on the axle with the 20t gear, used to drive the gearbox. Here is a good shot of the new mini turntable and the grabber. There is obviously a LA bracket used in the upper arm of the crane. There is also a 12t/20t/12t combination used. Looking at the picture, I can only see a inline 3 cylinder engine. The crane design looks almost exactly like the crane design of 8258, except this crane is smaller. Also note how a 24t is used in the rotation of the crane. It is very similar to the rotation of 8258. According to the front bumber license plate "UW 9397," the designer is Uwe Wabra.
