  1. I'm noticing on some newer city sets, on identical parts from the same set, the Lego Logo on the studs is sometimes rotated 90 degrees, No I'm not holding brick a different way to the other one.....
  2. I was lucky, I traded in £30 in VIP points so my crawler was only £109
  3. Yes, basically the same size, maybe a tad smaller
  4. From memory they were both hard tops. The clearance on the top deck of the car transporter is about 6 bricks high
  5. OK, one of the sets had a minifig with a mermaid tail in it (but a regular freinds style upper body and head) if I recall. Can't tell you much more because it was only a quick glance.
  6. Almost identical to set 7639 but with a canoe instead of a surfboard
  7. Sorry, pictures too small, I was trying to memorise the images, did not look in that much detail
  8. The trailer is brick built, there is no big mould, it uses lego ladders http://www.bricklink.com/search.asp?colorID=86&itemID=830 mounted horizontal for the car decks. The parts to raise and lower are technic axles with this part on the end http://www.bricklink.com/search.asp?colorID=3&itemID=522 of the axles. The ramps on the back of the car transporter and trailer are two of this part: http://www.bricklink.com/search.asp?colorID=9&itemID=398 yes, upper deck on the transporter and trailer.
  9. yes, only 6 wheels in total on the set, 4 on the truck, 2 on the trailer. I guess the pictures are still the prototype ones, so they might change before the final set is released.
  10. The best use I've found for 8 of these little ones is in Barman's container crane http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=63729&hl=%2Bcontainer+%2Bcrane until then, I had no idea how best to use them
  11. I saw a retailers catalogue for next year, no pictures permitted, but I made mental notes to share :-)
  12. pbeishuizen, If the cab was yellow, and the skip was blue you'd of done an almost perfect reverse engineering job without even seeing a picture. The 2014 set uses 2 large actuators just like your model does to load the skip.
  13. It's too early for pictures, I'm sure a retailers catalogue will eventually leak online, but at the moment these confidential ones are the only thing that is likely to leak online over the coming weeks, they will be taken down just as quickly as they go up. Pop to your local independent Lego toy retailer and ask if you can see his 2014 catalogue.
  14. We have Disney pricess sets coming next year, with the minifigs being the same design and size of the friends minifigs.
  15. There is some Disney princess products coming next year, they use the same body sizes as the Freinds characters. Could this be what your thinking of?
  16. The helicopter uses blades which look like this part http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=62743 I felt in the catalogue picture they looked shorter than 16L, but I could be wrong, it uses 3 on each of the 2 rotor assemblies. (e.g. front and back)
  17. Yes, 4, but potential for MOC is 6, 2 on the main truck and 4 on the trailer if it was extended
  18. yes, I think it was brick built, I just used the burps as an indication of height, maybe 15 bricks high total now I think about it.
  19. Still hope with the £100 TRU/Argos 1st half exclusive set (we hope)
  20. Likely I miscounted, could have been 12 in the catalogue, plus there will always be polybags/promo and limited edition sets which they omit from the general retailers catalogues.
  21. I guess the challenge is finding a small motor which kids can stall if they overload it, without killing the motor
  22. It's exactly that set, V6 up front, yellow pistons, and it uses light blue grey 2x2 round dish for the headlights.
  23. Not wanting to start a new thread for this limited piece of information, but the retailers catalogue 1st half, 2014 shows collectable minifigs continuing for series 12 and 13
