#637 just arrived from lego Shop at home and I'm paitently waitng for the family to leave so I can build in peace
-
This is why I only ordered one I'm not a huge collector I bought it because it has cool parts and is a better deal than the orginal crawler so why should I buy 2 just to try and make profit and deny someone else the joy of owning this set
-

Technic Ferrari FF MOC
tduby replied to octavspot's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
really nice job I wish I wasn't on lego hiatus when the ferrari sets came out and now they are so epensive it not worth it. -
are they saying the price will be 199.99 usa 249.99 ca or betweeen 199.99 - 249.99 usa and ca? even $50 more than 9398 seems like a sweet deal for the a much better looking model with all thesexy blue parts.

I don't know if it is possible toedit the first post here but could we post like all the other lego themes and have all the offcial lego pictuers and maybe a link to the techbrick arcticle about the grand prix racer that was on ebay -
Add another for the good ol USA I'm way up north in Michigan
-
I really hope the helicoper comes out at or bellow $100 US my plan is to purchase that and flatbed truck when toys r us has a buy 1 get one free sale :)
-
I like the idea of $175 price much much more than the $215 price range for the US. I have a hard time justifying spending over $200 for a hobby.

I rather like black birds Idea of an official Lego set that has the piece count and detail of some of the bigger mocs people build obviously there is some demand for this look how many super cars crow killer sells or how many people have made their own versions of Sariel's Big Brick Rig. They wouldn't even have to be new models just more refined versions of existing models along the lines of what Efferman and a few others do by taking an existing generic model and add function and detail that are cost prohibitive to child models but excellent for those of us lacking the skill and pieces finish out models. I am sure it wouldn’t be cheap but hopefully with such a high piece count there would be a little bit of a price per piece break. I bet some of the designers at Lego have some really sweet mocs in their heads that they are dying to have go into production.

what is your idea for the ultimate collectors set?

I really don't wish TLG would re-release any of the older Lego sets unless they are going to reuse the older building techniques and pieces but I suspect a lot of the molds for the studded bricks and angled connectors are no longer available so it would be VERY expensive to and I'd rather see that money go towards new parts others have suggested. Also the reintroduction of studless version of studded models seems silly since most models today are much more complex and ingenious in design. And if you really wanted them it is always possible to get the old instructions and come up with your own remake. What I truly wish Lego would do is the old Idea of selling part packs I know it is possible to buy parts but it is not widely know and it isn’t the easiest process to do. And as far as the great gear box debate I think Lego’s gear design works pretty good they will never be low friction gear boxes till Lego comes up with a proper bearings and tightens up the tolerances and I think that is beyond the scope of what they are trying to do. I do like Allanp Idea of different size gears that would mesh with the gear synchronizer something along the range of 3:1 2.5:1 2:1 1.5:1 and 1:1
