Speaking of sturdy, 7140 has a horrible tendency to come apart very easily. The rear of the engines and the lasers on the wings popped off all the time on my 7140. A problem solved in later iterations.

Fantastic model! I want to play with it!

This is a definite buy for me. It has a ton of personality that most technic sets lack.

Great design! Needs some color!

That's wonderful!

So all the instructions are in a stack? How do you find specific booklets without pulling them all out and looking at each one-by-one? How do you account for the huge disparity in booklet sizes? I would think instructions like the single-page ones in poly bag sets would be a challenge to find.

Does anyone on the forums store their sets complete, not separated out? I do this so I can build official sets easily. When going into storage, each set is taken apart and put into a ziploc bag along with its instructions. Like this, I can instantly identify a set by the images on the instructions and have all the pieces required right away. I'd really like to hear from others who keep their set pieces together. I'm concerned that my bag method warps the instructions of the larger(1000+ piece) sets.

Looking at the sale items in the US store makes for a very disappointing May the Fourth this year.

Only trouble I had were a few steps toward the end that were hard to decipher. Thanks for sharing your design. I enjoyed the challenge.

I built your design using the instructions and made a recording.

I've never been a fan of either. Many of the official sets that use them really overuse them. They seem to be put to good use when used minimally; in planes like the 42025 and 9394.

I'm hoping for a supercar. It'll be the first one released since getting back into the hobby. I've been eagerly awaiting it.

Very cool! And it only uses parts from those two sets?

Do we know if they are going to release 1H and 2H sets simultaneously in the US in August?

Does that mean USA is getting the 1H and 2H technic sets all at once in August? Very strange.
