42122 Jeep Wrangler
Banana92 replied to Ngoc Nguyen's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingI'm big enough to admit I was wrong about the color ?

42123 McLaren Senna GTR
Banana92 replied to Ngoc Nguyen's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingHonestly I'm not sure it's take much. Leave off the race themed sticked, change out the gray and some black for blue, and I think you could keep the spoiler, it is a super car after all ;)

42122 Jeep Wrangler
Banana92 replied to Ngoc Nguyen's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingI don't think those are Bushings but rather the 4x1 thin lift arm with that little protrusion (idk the actual part number) I'm calling it now, bright light orange, not yellow :P Several of those pieces wouldn't be new in that color actually since we got the off roader a while back in that color and the new small buggy Keetongu from bionicle back in 2005 also featured several liftarms in that color, though between then and until recently it's obviously been retired in technic

42122 Jeep Wrangler
Banana92 replied to Ngoc Nguyen's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingBut like.. a different yellow right? That bushing looks like standard Lego yellow, the Liftarms look more yellowish-orange to me, the color of last years 42101 buggy

42117 Race Plane
Banana92 replied to JintaiZ's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingWell this is much less impressive now, I like the dark Azure a lot but am a sucker for the Dark Turquoise (As a 90s kid when the color was prevalent) I'm not certain the technic 2x1bricks are what is used but the B-model has what looks like technic bricks in the back

42122 Jeep Wrangler
Banana92 replied to Ngoc Nguyen's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingI think this might be the Bright light orange color and not yellow, it's hard to tell, but the bushings on the roof look slightly brighter If that's the case then I'll probably pick this up, the Claas-lite tires are just a bonus

42123 McLaren Senna GTR
Banana92 replied to Ngoc Nguyen's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingThere's no way I have this right, but I'm doing what I do best and reverse engineering the sets for 2021 For what it's worth I like this MUCH better then the Corvette we got, it just looks so much more like the source material, and also the price to parts, I'll def be picking this up

42118 Monster Jam Grave Digger & 42119 Monster Jam Max-D
Banana92 replied to Ngoc Nguyen's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingWell, Enjoy my take on Max D This was *before* I found good quality photos so I'm glad to see them here, the back isn't 100%, But I'm happy with it Also, is that the "bright light orange, school bus yellow, keetorange" or whatever used down the middle?

42116 Skid Steer Loader
Banana92 replied to JintaiZ's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingBrickshelf comes through again, Anyway, Can't promise the B-model is 100% right, but I'm pretty sure the A model is

42116 Skid Steer Loader
Banana92 replied to JintaiZ's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingCompressed to fit, I can't promise the B-model is 100% right, but I'm pretty sure the main model is! Well I can't delete my last post, it failed to upload the pic, and now I can't upload any more pictures...

42121 Hydraulic Excavator
Banana92 replied to Ngoc Nguyen's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingIt looks like the major new piece is the 2x3 curved panel extension in black used on the arm (pictured), which I guess you can consider either a panel or a liftarm Still I'm really excited for this set. Sure it's not pneumatic as the name implies, but the coverage and parts usage is nice, and it looks like it will have the 3 functions we would expect with slewing, lowering the arm, and extending the bucket. It would be good to get that wind screen/seat piece in a non-frosted clear but I understand the cost limitations of making a new mold just for the different texture I guess we can pretend it's clear like we pretend other sets lacking a windscreen even have a windscreen to begin with Also I hope the #22 panel in yellow has it's companion #21 in the set, but judging from past history I don't expect it to. I might throw this together in studio like I've done for some of the other 2021 sets before it's released, always a fun challenge :)

Technic 2020 Set Discussion
Banana92 replied to dimaks13's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling2020H1 depresses me The Buggy, Mini Claas are easily the best sets, with the yellowish orange parts alongside the functions of the buggy, and the lime mini panels on a cheap set featuring 3 functions and looking like what it is supposed to represent, they do an excellent job introducing someone who has never built Technic to what it's about Even the two pullbacks offer a decent structure and interesting idea for what pullback sets have offered in the past, and I am all for them being 2 in 1 out of the box The catamaran isn't terrible but I hope the floating gimmick is limited to this set or better implimented in the future, instead of getting large, unwieldy pontoons good for one use It's everything that comes after that leaves so much to be desired The mobile crane *looks* okay, but looks are not all a technic set should offer, a lack of a B model, practically no functions I would call complex, and even some we would come to expect lacking, it's the first disappointment, even having built most of the 2020 sets in Stud.io long before we got videos, I already figured out the lack of geared slewing, the function of the 4 outriggers being directly driven, the dead simple steering, none of these are deal killers but for 1300 pieces... As a parts pack at around $100 USD I would call it a fine set, anything more expensive though... My biggest gripe is with the Rally car, and more prevelent in the Stunt Show While I actually like the idea of a stunt based set for pullbacks, the way it is handled here is poor, the colors are all over the place and it can be said that in both sets, it is obvious the budget wasn't allowing for the same piece in multiple colors (something obvious in the rally car when you notice the mini panels are navy blue only, the small and medium length panels are only black, and with the stunt show where azure parts show up or red parts are lacking. It is particularly jarring I the latter set as it is composed of 3 separate builds yet all using the same colors, something that does not make sense realistically 2020 just feels cheap, like something got pushed back, if it is to put more focus into H2, okay but that doesn't excuse what we're getting, and how much it leaves to be desired when compared to other years H1... Ramble over

42108 - Mobile Crane
Banana92 replied to Ngoc Nguyen's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingRight, they could have at least done like a hook/tow truck or some kind of wheeled dozer or something, there's a lot of panels and gears to shape up whatever, the parts are there
