    When and where can we get the instructions?

    I will post this again: The best way to get bulk technic is to search for deals on eBay. Technic Bugatti Chiron 42083 Complete for $166. (https://www.ebay.com/itm/Lego-Technic-Bugatti-Chiron-42083-Complete-Set/124328445382?hash=item1cf28d85c6:g:b7oAAOSwu0BfVcqH)

    We have one area that contains two nooks. The left side is our Technic/Mindstorm, and the right side contains all of our system pieces with the top row dedicated for display. The Technic area is in a 7' x 7' nook and contains 6 Akro-Mils Drawer units on top and a custom build TROFAST cabinet below. The tabletop is made from reclaimed floorboards from a local farm. The second nook is 10' x 10' and holds a large majority of out sorted blocks. This also contains custom build-ins. The built-ins house Sterilite Wide 3 Drawer units. The drawer units do come apart and can be reassembled in any number. I have five drawers on the bottom row and four drawers on the rows above. The shelves are adjustable. The wooden drawers on the very bottom are a foot deep and house unsorted blocks, base plates and other misc. pieces. The top row is dedicated for display. Currently our modulars are monopolizing the space. I chose Under Counter Lighting to light up the top shelf. We utilize the 20' x 12' space behind the double doors to store our tubs of unsorted blocks and all of our sets are stored in baggies in plastic bins. Thanks for looking.

    I you want large amounts of Technic pieces you best bet is to buy a dozen or so large sets. https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?S=42082-1#T=S&O={"loc":"US","iconly":0} https://www.ebay.com/itm/LEGO-42082-Technic-Rough-Terrain-Crane-NEW-BUT-BOX-IS-A-MESS-READ-DESCRIPTION/274472795725?hash=item3fe7da7e4d:g:8K8AAOSwDkJfRm0h eBay and Bricklink are a great source. Sales on Amazon are also a great place. After yo have acquired 50,000 or so pieces you can start filling in your gaps by bricklink'n pieces you are lacking. It wont be cheap, but it is not that hard really.

    Don't overlook the deals found on eBay. Sets like #42082, #8110 and #42083 can be acquired for under 5 cents a piece. I have purchased three #42082 in the past month. That set contains a good number of long beams and a good pile of gears.

    No way it is under $400, it may be $500. I love the that we are getting something new instead of a rehash. I'll pass as I have no interest in Star Wars playsets.

    I just purchased from Brick Loot. The balls are a bit smaller, but work and look great. I do not have access to a LUG, that is what I hear the best option.

    It's all about the $$$.

    Disappointing.

    The spiral staircase in the back is great! The boxing ring is cool. The roof is clever. The parking meter is a great addition. The oven hood is a great part usage. The recording studio walls are great! The lack of symmetry on the juke box is annoying, that must be a building mistake.

    ^ I am more interested to see what is going on in the background! Do you have any images of your mocs?

    Thank you for the thoughtful response. I was a bit harsh and regretted my comment after posting. I can't argue with your approach. The bottom is beautiful. I don't expect the official set to invest in the belly, and that is too bad as it adds a lot of challenge to the design/build. P.S. I never finish my castles as I always make them too large.

    Looks good. It is refreshing to see the interior details. However, it needs to be about 40% larger.

    Looks like a boring build.

    The promo usually ships in a day or two. I have gotten promos and the backorder ended up being canceled.
