He did not state, that you can rebuild in any color you WANT, but what you HAVE at home, and not the WHOLE model, but ANY PART of the car. And here you go (which I find awesome btw): <Psychedelic Porsche> I love it too... on the Porsche. But would such a psychedelic scheme work on a Lambo too? I find it hard to imagine! Quote
agrof Posted June 4, 2020 Posted June 4, 2020 Just to clarify: there was no intention to put the focus on the text on the rainbow Porsche picture, simply this was the first, which came across on google. BTW, William built the Chiron in rainbow too, so I expect the Sián will follow once too. Quote
astyanax Posted June 4, 2020 Posted June 4, 2020 (edited) And to clarify my statement about finding it "hard to imagine" a psychedelic Lambo: I meant to say I lack imaginative capabilities, not that it wouldn't look awesome! @agrof You should be careful though... Before you know it you'll get accused of plunging this thread into another discussion on color vomit! Edited June 4, 2020 by astyanax Quote

Polarlicht Posted June 4, 2020 Posted June 4, 2020 I have just finished build box one, and one of the gears feels clunky. I think its 1st gear. I made sure every gear and axle had some play, but some things turn not smooth. I don't hear cracking, but idk... Quote
Rudivdk Posted June 4, 2020 Posted June 4, 2020 I don't have the model, so I can't check if it actually is a part of the drivetrain, but if so maybe you have one of those faulty tan 20t double bevel gears. Those are known to create immense levels of friction in a geartrain... Could also be that it is difficult to turn the drivetrain by hand, dunno if you already took the wheels out of the box but you might want to give it another try with wheels on... Quote
Polarlicht Posted June 4, 2020 Posted June 4, 2020 Same with wheels on! Was there a problem with those tan gears? Quote

I think the newer version on the right is said to be very slightly thicker than the older version on the left, potentially causing more friction. But maybe someone wants to correct me... Quote
Mestari Posted June 4, 2020 Posted June 4, 2020 I did have many problems with friction and that kind of gear in the past. I avoid using it anytime I can. It's just too thick. But I used to have this problem as early as with the orange arctic truck, I am not sure when the bad one was introduced. Quote

They run way smoother than any of the tan gears I have. And they look better too Quote
Polarlicht Posted June 5, 2020 Posted June 5, 2020 So iam not the only one with a clunky gearbox? I noticed it first when attaching the rear axle to the gearbox, before that it worked better... Quote

Could you use a couple of official pictures to make a Bright Light Orange version ? I think that could be nice looking. Quote

But maybe someone wants to correct me... Nah. I think you are right. Someone in the 42110 thread confirmed. He used the older ones prolly from his arocs into his Landy and achieved better results in terms of reducing the frictions. The newer ones are thicker (less tapered) it is a shame. It was discovered several months ago. I think it is time Lego seriously fixed this/reverted it back to the old superstars. Or maybe this is how Lego cough cough enhanced the Roaring part of the Lambo from their super cool (where almost everyone believed light will glow in the darkest times ?) commercials. Just for a joke. Sorry if anyone is brokenhearted by this. 8 hours ago, Gray Gear said: I just go safe and use old used lg/lbg 20T gears. They run way smoother than any of the tan gears I have.

Blakbird Posted June 5, 2020 Posted June 5, 2020 Well, that's Box 1 done. That was a lot of work. The best I can do until the real thing comes off backorder. Quote
Valkyx Posted June 5, 2020 Posted June 5, 2020 Either DPD is not updating statuses or smthing is wrong: 03.06.2020 19:01 DPD data centre Order information has been transmitted to DPD. Its been 5 days since ordering of Lambo.... Quote

BrickJohn Posted June 5, 2020 Posted June 5, 2020 Can someone tell me how many bags with the number 1 are there? In box 1 I don't have any small black connectors, so I'm already stuck after a couple of pages. Quote
