This topic has been started by author few time ago. This is an inetresting idea, would love to have such small item with nice functionality. Although I think it won't be possible to make it reliable in that tiny format.

Where do Rare/HTF Parts come from?
zux replied to Turaga of Force's topic in General LEGO Discussion
Remember you can try getting these through LEGO Customer Service website (these hoods are Out of stock at this moment), so you don't have to pick enormous number of sets to get this amount of special parts you need. -
Motor 5292 - Battery Problem?
zux replied to Frootloop's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I read some time ago that people having experience in electronics and interested in RC models still had fires while charging their LiPo batteries. There is no wonder why there are special bags and boxes for LiPo batteries, where these should be kept while charging. I'm not good at electronics, but at least I'd keep LiPo in closed saucepan durig charging process. -

Porsche 'Inner' Workings
zux replied to DrJB's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Well i think few of your mentioned items already have been implemented in one or another way: 1. nicjasno (if I get nickname correctly) has done lots of different suspenion models 3. 8458 and 42000 have springs traveling horizontaly. Looking forward your ideas as both sounds interesting for me. -
When did LEGO catalogs in sets disappear?
zux replied to badbob001's topic in General LEGO Discussion
Well I remember LEGO System sets in 90s had those one sheet 3-4 times folded "catalogs". And primary side was of the same theme as bought set and if I remember correctly it had a different diorama rather than in in store catalogue for same theme. This thing was very interesting and inspiring! I could study those for ages at that time -
Rolls-Royce Trent 1000
zux replied to paul_delahaye's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I think it was discovered sometime ago that part of building process involved glueing to create impossible shapes and brick connections. That says much. -

Nope. There are two small 8T gears in the middle, which make rotation for both front and back axles in required directions. Not sure how strong this solution is.

Lego Technic Figures
zux replied to BasOne's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Thanks Philo, I looked at BL before too. As you may see some posts above there is a picture of completely green minifigure, which isn't listed on BrickLink. So I hope white arms arn't listed too and do actually exist. -
Lego Technic Figures

I wonder if there exists a Technic figure with all white arms? -
[MOC] Rage Buggy
zux replied to JM1971's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I feel like body needs some reinforcements in the middle, 4 mounting points might be not enough. -

Value of Original 1973 Instructions #730?

If you wish to gain on your karma - scan it > provide scans or upload them to one of websites distributing Building Instructions > sell it. Current selling price is as above. -
Lego Technic Clones
zux replied to imajor's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
That was funny to read Sadly none of reviewed sets was Technic clone. -
Did you notice that even general one sets tend to increase in price when they appear to be out of production? Flagships costs the most, take 8043 (I wish I had one) for example. It costs now twice as much as it used to when it was on sales about a year ago. Not sure about increased price of 9398, but 41999 has more PF items, some exclusive parts and looks good, so it will be be of a higher price anyway.

Scania R560 V8 'Black Pearl'
zux replied to Bricksonwheels's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
The type of MOCs I really enjoy being made from LEGO parts. Do you have pictures with cabin tilted and what is hidden behind it?
