    Sorry I could not participate this time. Great entries all. 24: 1014: 610: 411: 32: 216: 1

    Sorry to bump this after a couple of years, but instructions are now available here.

    That's the one. From the Lego Technic Facebook.

    The hub at 0:14 in the video is the same rear hub as in the past. Coupled with 4185 Pulley wheel the old hub and new wheel can be connected. I'm not yet convinced of new hubs. Remember how excited we were at this point with 42056. I'm keeping my expectations low until I am proved otherwise.

    I am starting to think the only way I get any of these is with Rebrick or TC contest. Those prices!

    The W engine design from the video seems a little too basic for me. Very surprised by the pins in the wheels. They are going in the wrong direction by making wheels and hubs more proprietary, first with the 911, now with this. Hmmmm.

    It was well deserved. Thanks for your participation on this forum. We look forward to more fun builds.

    Here is the WIP.

    Great job. I love the size, and the functions. The black looks great as well. Picture of the underside?

    Winter in the northern hemisphere for me means building, so I am hard at work on a number of different things. The Cat 914K is about done, and the Claas Atos is done. Now I am working on a couple of implements. Also, why not start another Unimog?

    Ooo, I like the bigger wheels, and the red looks nice. I keep coming back to the original build. It's a great one, I added it to my top 17 of 2017 list. I think I may need to add to my "build this" list.

    You are so quick from one build to the next. Well done again with another stunning MOC.
  13. Thirdwigg
    Does it work?

    What will keep the 7L axles from pulling out of the differential gears?

    @Jockos you could burn some of your old ones. Just kidding. Sorry, burning Lego is not funny. Sorry.

    @Ngoc Nguyen I hope you are right, and you make a compelling case. It would also make a much simpler mount for the 5x11 panels.
  17. Thirdwigg
    @degenerate It's hard to tell as it appears the 5x11 panels are mounted directly to whatever this part (or group of parts) is.

    I'm impressed with what I see. The forklift is a little basic, but it appears to have a two stage boom! It's been a while since we have had a decent size forklift, so I am pleased. 42080 looks pretty wacky, but I'm a big fan of fellers, and this is nice addition to the lineup. Plus having PF and Pneumatic in the same set is always fun. And lime! 42081 looks wild, and have sort of bug look going on. It's kind of fun, and would be a great way to get the Volvo loader bucket and the Claas tires again. 42082 looks impressive and clean. I think I like it better than 42009. It appears the engine is just exposed, not hanging off the back. Also, I'm not convinced by the 3x7 dogbone. It may just be two of these, and two of these, all in red.

    Pretty fun. Iā€™m in!
  20. Thirdwigg
    This turned out great. Well done using the parts available from 42054, and making this fun C-Model.
  21. Thirdwigg
    I had low expectations for this set, but it looks better than I first thought. The colors work for me. The rear engine cover is pretty neat, as is the role cage. I might add this to my list depending on pricing. Thanks for the quick review @kbalage

    I like the look of the winch. To me, the black and white is a little visually disruptive. Is there a certain version you are trying to replicate? What happens if you switch the black parts to white? I was thinking mounting a #21 and #22 end to end vertically to take the place of the black panel would look better, but after looking at pictures of the AW 169, why do you just mount 2 or 3 1x7 liftarms vertically to fill the gap. The side of the AW 169 does not curve much, so this may look OK. Re. the door, I would add a small panel to the bottom to fill it in a little. I would remove the vertical frame and make the door only on the bottom, like this, not like this.

    So excited about this. Thanks for starting another fun project. Also, I like the idea of the side controls. This allows for great playability, without cramped fingers in the cockpit. Great idea.

    @Seasider the 911 dimensions are 45x21x13 studs (L, W, H). I don't have instructions for the build, nor is it still built, but you should be able to get pretty close with the pictures posted. The front steering is a little complicated, but I can help you as you go through the build. PM me as needed. Yellow is doable. The only part missing (I think) is panel #21 and #22 below the front headlights, as this is not in yellow.

    I'm following this topic with interest, as I do the same for my desk, and like @Seasider I'm looking for something new. I thought about self-promoting my 911 (thanks @letsbuild), but I don't have instructions. It is 13 studs tall. My F1 would fit the bill, but it's a little simple (Instructions). As mentioned, the Pony Car is a great option, and I think the 919 from @steph77 would be great.
