I've bought the same super-pack (66405) for 135 euro in the netherlands. The new superpack retails for 189, but i'm sure it will drop to about the same price somewhere in the next months (in a sale somewhere)
The First big technic set that comes to mind is the 42009. Not remote controlled, but it has a multi function gearbox and over 2600 parts including 1 motor.
First i didn't want it. Because i wanted to spend the money on some Technic "supercar" models to build some of the known supercar moc's and maybe build some myself. But fot RC versions you need PF (adds some play-ability/show-factor) and for buying the PF elements separately you need to spend some serious money. I could buy a new 42030 (sealed) for 150 euro's. So i did buy it. I still have to build it, but for the 150 euro's it makes a perfect parts pack (although i'm not a fan of the yellow parts :P)
Wow! This is amazing. I really like it! Any ideas on what would be on the second floor (if there will be a second floor)? Or how the second floor will be accessible?
One word; AMAZING! The way you used the light in both scene's make it look so much more real! And the detail in both scene's is amazing! Will there be more?
