Paul Boratko Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Very very cool...! :thumbup: More Pictures and info. MOC pages Quote
Conchas Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Indeed! Nathanaël never stops surprising, with his alternate models! Quote
legomuppet9 Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 This should have been the B Model instead of that ugly truck! Great work once again from Nathanaël Quote
allanp Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Now it's like the red f1 car from 1995 (indy racer?) whose alternate model was also a hot rod! Quote
skriblez Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 That is brilliant looking! Might have to get another 42000 set to build this. Will there be instructions for this? Quote
captainmib Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Wow this is amazing! I might like this even better than the a-model... Good job! Quote
rm8 Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 The Guy who builds the best Alternate models. His name is Nathanael! Quote
Erik Leppen Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 I knew someone was going to come with something better than the official alternate. I didn't expect it to be as good as this :) Smart idea to use the black panels as seat backrests. Also I like the color scheme. The white and red are not "clashing" like in the official alternate.

zux Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Wow, nice alternate indeed! I just wonder if it is made of 42000 parts only. Quote
N-4K0 Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Usually I'm not a fan of Hot Rod type cars, but this looks awesome! This should have been the B Model instead of that ugly truck! If TLG pulls another competition in the future similar to the Boss Crawler one, they could create a digital model of one of the sets up for release, and then let people download the file and create their suggestion(s) for a B-model in LDD or similar, using all or as many as possible of the parts from the set, and the B-model with the most votes was chosen as the official B-model of the set when it was released Would probably generate quite a bit of excitement.

bord4kop Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 This looks great and so easy designed (but is not) Excellent work there! Quote
Edwin Korstanje Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Fantastic work from Nathanaël and even better than the A model Quote
Zerobricks Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 He really did a good job on this model. Should be official B model! Quote
dhc6twinotter Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 This looks fantastic! I especially like the way the front grill was done. Quote
Rishab N Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Wow this is great! It makes me want to buy a 42000 just to build it. It kinda reminds me of a Plymouth Prowler Quote
Ape Fight Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 (edited) Better than main and b model . Completely agree, even if it looks a bit like a Plymouth Prowler! It's been picked up by the blogs as of yesterday too: http://thelegocarblo...3/07/12/b-side/ Edited July 13, 2013 by Ape Fight Quote

GuiliuG Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 (edited) I have no words to describe this beauty and how neat it is built ! What do you wait to go back work as a lego designer? Edited July 12, 2013 by GuiliuG Quote
jorgeopesi Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 (edited) This is a perfect A-model, where is the B-model for it? . Ouch the B-model is the F1 . Edited July 12, 2013 by jorgeopesi Quote
nato8181 Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Congratulations!! You will make instructions? ... How much will it cost? Quote
jadedomg Posted July 13, 2013 Posted July 13, 2013 I really like the way he designed the front end of the car, the grill looks great for something that is so low on parts. Quote
Splat Posted July 13, 2013 Posted July 13, 2013 I think that if instructions were available, this would make me buy another copy of this set. Great job with the colours, and the entire design overall. I also like Error404's idea of having a competition to make a B-Model out of a specific set of parts. If we didn't know what the A-Model was yet, it'd be interesting to see if anyone would design something close to the A-Model. Perhaps all the pieces for the A-Model could be found in a larger set from the previous year, or a combination of 2 smaller sets from the previous year, so that everyone could get the parts easily. It'd also be great to have the top 5 (?) B-Models displayed on the back of the box as 'possibilities', like some of the older Lego boxes. Even if no instructions were provided, this would still be pretty cool. Quote
spotfrog Posted July 13, 2013 Posted July 13, 2013 More B-model inspirations on the back of the box would be awesome, and all the better if they were designed by fans! Very cool idea. This Street Rod is absolutely gorgeous too, much more visually interesting than the A-model. Quote
