42207 Ferrari SF-24
M_longer replied to Auroralampinen's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
My gues is new block and new piston, that will work with this: https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=4368&idColor=86#T=C&C=86 But price higher than Merc (10€ more) for 300 pieces less is a bad joke. -
What can be done with 18 wheels except mobile crane? This: Hooklift truck, based on M1120 HEMTT LHS, cargo trailer, telehandler and two platforms with a lot of cargo. And all of that using almost 90% of parts from the set. Instructions: https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-201507/M_longer/60409-cargo-team/#details Video: More pictures: https://bricksafe.com/pages/M_longer/minifig/60409-cargo Truck uses 8 large wheels and two small as spare tire. Featuring working hooklift arm: That can be turned into dump truck with locking the arm with a tile: Both cargo platforms are interchangeable, allowing to be lifted from ground and trailer. Platform allows to put heavier load, which can be picked up by telehandler. Speaking about the trailer - simple, but sturdy model, that can be pulled by truck and telehandler. Trailer was built to work with the hooklift, allowing to slide the container from truck onto it: Fully loaded: The last part of the Cargo Team, Telehandler: Featuring arm elevation & extension + tiltable forks, with front outriggers: It can be transported on the platform too, it just needs one of the cargo pieces to be placed on it: Both cabs can be opened, to place the minifigs inside: Instructions are divided into 4 books, to try some different approach this time :)

Do not even start. Every licensed set is wrongy built when compared to real car. -

Nobody mentioned it, because nobody seen it ;) I'm wondering if it will skip under heavy load though.

I'm selling instructions for years at Rebrickable, and it does not matter if you will ask 1€ or 100€, if thieves would see potential in selling your model, it will be just bought from you.
-
I'm going to look at how this attempt on looking for customers will end. Because I have never seen someone who says that will make instructions, if there will be enough potential customers and not showing the model fully working.

I just share my opinion about complaints from a perspective of someone, who sell instructions for years. And there were A LOT of people nagging for free instructions in past years. See, some people think that everything related to LEGO should be free. Just because "it's LEGO and I'm a fan of LEGO". Sorry, my bills are not for free. And? I have even been said (ONCE), that I should release all my instructions for free (hundreds of hours of work spent on them) and rely only on voluntary donations. And that was the dumbest ideaI have ever heard :) Main idea behind making paid instructions; If you have paid 200€ for a set, spending additional 10-15€ on completely new and different model is a fair deal. No additional bricks, no addtional effort. Just few % of price you have already paid for bricks for 100% new building experience. So what would you build then? Those low quality ones? :)
