  1. Can anyone please tell me when this is going to be released in New Zealand?, some of the big retail stores don't even mention it?.
  2. A couple of things?, was there any way that the 42114 could have the battery mounted behind the cab?. Does it go better with PF than Control + do you think?. Please tell me that you will do a PF conversion for the D11?. Thanks.
  3. One question I have not sure if it has been asked or covered is does it have opening doors on the cab?.
  4. It wont be over $1k, should hopefully be around $800nzd i would think. The price doesn't really matter to me, it is what it is. Hopefully get one on sale at some point.
  5. All I say is thank god for Afterpay or Laybuy here in NZ, that's going to be the only way I can afford this. I'll just wait for Sariel's review before I make my decision on buying this.
  6. That will be because of the stuff on top of them. I would be shocked if the ripper on the rear is worm geared like 8275.
  7. Just seen the pic of this and it's making me way more excited than the D11T. I have been waiting for a America rotator tow truck for a while. Looks like it has everything I want front and rear fold down outriggers, 2 winches, raise able axle and pneumatics. Just wish it was a Mack truck but should be easy to change. Cant wait for this one.
  8. Just seen the pic and to me it looks like it will have the same functions as 8275, the blade will go up and down and the ripper will go up and down and drive that's it. The fake looking rams for the tilt look like 2x2 and 1x2 rounds made to look like a ram they wont do anything. I would say it will only have 3-4 motors, 3 rams and a hub. Just a newer version of the 8275. They could have at least had 2 exhausts and 2 air cleaners on the bonnet, just little details.
  9. Hi, this is amazing. Do you think it will work with power functions instead of the control stuff?.
  10. Sariel's review comes out on the 17th July for the Volvo, can't wait.
  11. To me it looks like it has no suspension at all, not even a centre twist. I feel this set is going to be a big let down. On the plus side I do like the way they have done the tipping rams.
  12. I'm wanting to sell my whole collection, all in mint condition, 2 thunder drillers some extra rock monsters. Any interest?.
  13. 41678 is available in orange https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=41678&name=Technic, Axle and Pin Connector Perpendicular Double Split&category=[Technic, Connector]#T=S&C=4&O={"color":"4","iconly":0} Maybe you could do the roof a different color, like a orange car with a black roof that would look pretty cool especially with the black wheels, wing and front lip. Then just put notes in the instructions somewhere saying that certain parts aren't available in orange. Or do the hard part of redesigning the roof with parts that work in orange.
  14. As a huge rotary fan, please please please do instructions for it, will happily pay, this thing is sick
  15. I have just completed the Racers Ferrari FXX and am wondering did it come with the red strip on the rim covers or just plain black ones?, mine was a 2nd hand set and has plain black but in the Brickset inventory they have the red strip around them, but Bricklink doesn't have them. I have read reviews that say it has them. Can anyone shed some light on this?. https://brickset.com/sets/8156-1/Ferrari-FXX-1-17
  16. Didn't Lego re release it not too long after it came out cause it had problems with the rams/receivers?, we all know the issues it had, i'd recomment going straight to the ultimate 8043 build.
  17. Wow that is crazy, looks awesome. Would love to know the panel count on it?.
  18. Hi Jim, i'm gonna enter my 1st comp, is a ute allowed or racing car?
  19. Just did some testing with the 8t:24t and 12t:20t both ways and 8t:24t is the slowest it turns so hopefully that will be good. Thanks guys.
  20. Yes moving the forks up and down, I haven't built the mast yet but will be using worm gears and string to move it up and down. Basically just wanting to know if switching the L motor to XL motor but keeping the same gear ratio from the L motor will work ok, just wanted a bit more torque for lifting than the L motor. I'll work on a pic.
  21. I'm not very good at working out gear ratios but I am currently building a forklift which uses a L motor driving a 8t gear connected to a 24t gear to lift the mast. I have upgraded the L motor to a XL motor for more lifting power/torque but am wondering if I need to change the gear ratios aswell or will just changing the XL motor be fine with the current gearing?.
  22. Looks good, as i still have your 1st version build apart from the body were the changes significant from the 1st one?. Now thats done any chance of the remake of the D575A?
  23. You have done a awesome job at recreating this. Is the non rc version included in the instructions or do you just leave the rc elements out?, and it is possible to get the white wheels?.
  24. Hi Efferman, any updates with the Liebherr Bulldozer?.
