Okay so once I decide to give into my love for construction vehicles and buy the 8043. Which model should I build? I know they're both great and I don't care which one I build. If I end up with the bulldozer model, do I get more good parts for MOCing?, or do I end up with average parts and no gears? I don't have much time to go downloading instructions to see, but I'm sure someone has a great answer (Probably Dluders, as always )!

According to the Brickset listing for 2012 Technic (Brickset- Technic 2012)There's ten sets, one being Dacta (which is Lego Education?) But it has the new brick separator, and a weight(?- the big black brick)The beams are studded beams, BUT, It has 40 tooth gears, crown gears, and belts, possibly some bands, then it has smaller connectors (Possibly the two new ones from that monster theme!) It's actually sold now- Website Looks like $50USD

Is advanced being like a 5+R gearbox?

EPTO would be made using an PF extension cable and connecting it to a beam on the back, not the best idea but it would work. I would rather have a pf stud connector-plug connector, where it would connect to the battery box but it can also go through a pinhole, then make the male/female connectors for it.

We can see it will have a 4 speed transmission and ujoint(?) from the cover.

Anyone know what all is in it? Is it more basic Technic or advanced?

I love how the grill is made, I never even thought of using those pieces in Technic. And the final model, the way those plates come over the headlights make it look aggressive. I'm hoping for instructions!

I would also like to see a rebirth of the 8285 Tow Truck, and maybe the reintroduction of chromed (or metallic) Technic parts, like chromed wheels!! Or maybe a whole year of sets that don't have red, I'm getting sick of all the red whenever there's a different color that would make the set better. I would also like a full transmission, but that's probably the next super car. Maybe we will get new plates, like the 3x11 plates like the Unimog prototype had. Maybe a new motor set(s) with the new motors, maybe new gears or new sizes, new beams that have been designed, new kinds of vehicles. Maybe we finally get a boat! We still have about six months before we find out half of it all, but I expect leakage of images like always.

I know its crazy, but what about a flagship size semi truck with trailer or whatever functions. We have the Unimog tires, so why not a big semi? That would be nice, especially if it is more of an American style semi. Or have the rebirth of the barcode truck.

Oh I'm sorry.. I'm not exactly new, I've been on here for awhile but I had a very long time away from this site and forgot absolutely everything about my login But I don't have many ideas of my own.

Ok I know there is already a topic like this but I needed some help with some of them. The tipper bed, how do I make the three-way tipper? And for my second, I was thinking of using the snow plow but I have an extra mini la, how exactly would I build that? I was thinking about using the two bigger cylinders on the sides of the plow for more accuracy and using my extra mini la for the up and down.
