One container truck idea (I see one of those M.A.N. disposal container trucks with black hydraulic cylinders and dark gray cylinder holders every day several times). About EB community you're probably right Thanks for compliment Quote

About EB community you're probably right Thanks for compliment But couldn't you design that truck with normal coloured LAs? I once owned pneumatic cylinders in colours never found in any sets. i never made a good MOC with them. i'm back to the yellow ones and MOC'ing Quote

I suppose red pneumatic cylinders? Quote

Void_S Posted September 2, 2021 Posted September 2, 2021 Guys, the UCS Tumbler will be re-released this year (https://rebrickable.com/sets/76240-1/batmobile-tumbler) and we might get a bunch of Tumbler tires and golden wheel hubs again Quote

Also the price -- 20 euro for a motorization mod? Doesn't make sense... I just want some minimal manual functions like on the big Batmobile (76139) -- steering and maybe some other funky surprise weapon deployment. Anyhow, this is not the "Tumbler mods & improvements" thread, so I'll shut up now..... Quote
TechnicRCRacer Posted September 7, 2021 Posted September 7, 2021 The long cylinders from 42128 are now available at Bricks & Pieces for a bit under $8 USD a piece. Quote
msk6003 Posted September 8, 2021 Posted September 8, 2021 New curved panel from space shuttle 10283 is perfectly fit with twin 86652 wheel. Last release of this wheel is two years ago(2019). Quote

It's an odd one out, because the rim doesn't fit any other tyre and vice versa. I wonder if the slightly-larger Batmobile tyre will be replacing it - that one fits the standard rims. Do the new curved panels also fit these new tyres? Quote

SNIPE Posted September 15, 2021 Posted September 15, 2021 (edited) Here it is folks, my lego bricks and pieces parts haul, the red and black panels as well as the black 4x4 tiles and grills are for the CADA red suspercar, the mustang rims are for to hold two VW T2 tyres each for my 42128 mod, I also got 4 of them in black because I like the color black best. the harley tyres and rims are for my ultimate 8462 studless MOC but lego only sent me 4 when I asked for 6 :/ All other parts are just for to have because theyre interesting/useful. Heres a video, please excuse my terrible voice: here's two possible tires for the technic wheel smooth with 7 pinholes: Regards, Snipe Edited September 15, 2021 by SNIPE Quote
Hrafn Posted September 15, 2021 Posted September 15, 2021 (edited) @SNIPE what is the part number for the wheel with seven pinholes? And what is its outer diameter? Thanks! EDIT: nevermind, it is 68327 (https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=68327#T=C&C=86) Edited September 15, 2021 by Hrafn Quote
TechnicRCRacer Posted September 15, 2021 Posted September 15, 2021 My massive B&P haul arrived yesterday, but I sorted it already so no photos. It included 20x the new light bley 3L push pins, 50x black Technic bushings, tons of dark green panels (I may be building a dark green car out of spite), 4x the new long thick CV joints, all of the new Zetros color parts, 4x thin VW T2 tires, 20x white half bushings, 4x long 1x11 pneumatic cylinders, 2x large compressors, 4x 7x11 frames, along with many, many more parts. I've already used the new 3L pins, they are very useful! Quote

That 8462 mod sounds pretty cool; I've been wanting to see Harley tires used for a non-motorcycle for a while!

EDIT: nevermind, it is 68327 (https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=68327#T=C&C=86) it's just 2L thick, 5L diameter and 4L inner diameter. I hope to use the frontside or rearside grooves to put rollers so that this wheel acts as a roller bearing. I could not find any tires that are designed to fit nativley on this rim since it has odd dimentions and is smooth. Edited September 16, 2021 by SNIPE Quote
Ngoc Nguyen Posted September 21, 2021 Posted September 21, 2021 I've just discovered that most of the black technic pins in my 42128 set are crooked. They slightly bent toward the side with the mold mark and away from the side with the center groove. Since I usually align my pins so that the mod marks are one side, after a while the model becomes visibly crooked. Quote
