Finally got around to modding my Racing Kart a bit and taking a few photos of it. One of the cheapest Technic sets, but also one of the most satisfying to build and display

I just built that one myself. Building the Caterham now.

What mods did you do?

 

[nicjasno]

Expanded my vintage technic collection again. 8040 was my favorite pneumatic set back in the day.





8865 is in the mail, so this is coming in next.

 

[nicjasno]

Added this gem to the collection this year:






Maybe the 8880 will join for the next years hollidays.

It's nice that they announce it already, since this will require som serious lobbying of the better half

I think somthing like the new Ford GT would have been a better choice for their second "ultimate" technic car but a black/blue Chiron will certainly do as well

 

[MWF]

I know two things. The combination of Technic and Bugatti means Junior will have much want. And the other thing I know is that I don't want to know how much damn money that thing is going to cost me but I'd better start saving now.

 

[nicjasno]

I hope it won't be as horrible as the porsche.

Rumours say € 360-370 so probably slightly less those numbers in pounds.

I hope it won't be as horrible as the porsche.

It has 900 more pieces and is still about the same scale as the Porsche, so something will be added. I still wouldn't hold my hopes up for ackermann steering and other more authentic technicallities but it has a new designer instead of Uwe Wabra who did the Porsche so who knows? My guess is most of it will go to a more detailed exterior which I would be fine with.

Since these models are more aimed at AFOL-s i'd expect more effort put into realism.

 

[73GMCSprint]

I disagree. They're Technic sets. I expect that sort of skeletal look in a Technic set. If it were Creator or something like that, then sure, make it look more realistic.
I do wish they'd do more sets like they used to do with the old Model Team line.

 

[nicjasno]

Realistic as in the depicted mechanisms and technology. Right now they are going for realistic looks but totally basic and unrealistic tech.
