  1. Excellent model - very well done! Love the Coyote motor too.
  2. I get pretty busy with work, selling Lego and life in general but it never really leaves my mind. I wish I had more time to build and usually stick to official sets or popular MOCs when I do because of limited time.
  3. That is a really nice Hauler he has made with a lot to like about it. Good luck with your reverse engineered attempt - that looks like fun! I would love to take the best bits from this, the one by Designer Han, and the 42030 B model and make a modernized Technic Super Hauler!
  4. That's exactly what has to be done as instructions don't exist for this one to my knowledge. I have done it and so have many others. It's worth it and looks great especially in yellow!
  5. I built a somewhat modernized version of this model a while back. I substituted new 1x5x11 panels for the partially studded ones and made the gas tanks like the 9397 along with quite a few other tweaks.
  6. They work fine but naturally take a while to move by hand. I just like this tractor for some reason even though it's fairly simple. I haven't built the rear device yet and I'm not sure if I will.
  7. I'm still busy speculating on if we're going to get 2014 Technic sets!
  8. Canada maybe, but I don't feel for the rest of the world since they're currently enjoying 1H2014 Technic sets!
  9. Surely that is supposed to be $219 US and $249 CAN as that is the only model where the two prices don't differ.
  10. The Container Truck is missing from that catalog - does that mean it won't be making the trip over? I built one already since I had most of the parts and only needed the new pieces but I think it's a shame if true since it is a nice model.
  11. Hopefully the B model is worthy of some extra parts to make it something closer in detail to the A model. I'm excited about it anyways!
  12. I did this also with the 8275 and the only parts that were super expensive and rare are the pneumatic cylinder brackets (4). I don't remember anything else that was hard to find but I did deviate slightly from the standard set leaning more towards studless wherever possible.
  13. I just finished mine as well and like it a lot! The use of the primary colors together takes me back to the days of the 853 Car Chassis.
  14. Is that a red and white 42008 I see next to a re-colored 9395? Lots of cool stuff in those pics!
  15. Nice mini! It seems they are all the rage right now. Now we need some Blakbird renders and rotating .gif.
  16. I really like what you have done. I have already set aside 8 black wheels for mine although I will probably build the original (pneumatic) first with some color tweaks.
  17. The yellow 32184s are almost indistinguishable between new and used because of the material which seems to be scratch resistant. I have 50 or so yellow ones and they are mixed and you really can't tell - they all look really good.
  18. Nice work! I really like the upgraded pneumatic version also. You also beat Dokludi to the punch - somebody check on him!
  19. It looks really good - very official looking and tidy. I may have to build one but would probably 'cheat' on the colors of a few parts because it deserves them, but I totally respect what you have done!
  20. Good job! I believe the grille uses Technic Gear Rack 1x7 part no. 87761. I like it - it is small and simple but still looks nice.
  21. It might be fun to add pneumatics to the small dozer. If you want it done right, sometimes it's better to do it yourself! I recently built the 42006 B model and thought it had some nice details for a similar size even though the mechanics were very simple.
  22. Bricklink stock. One is reserved for me though.
