  1. Same here, I got it mostly for display (and for more electronic parts for MOCs). Though this is lego afterall, and the fun for me now is learning from other builders' MOCs and realizing that the simpler and lighter the design, the better. Looks is just a bonus.
  2. Here's a crappy iphone pic of the crazy Crawler tires on the 41999 wheel. I like the way they look on my modded 9398.
  3. I can't find anyone around me that is as passionate about this as I am, but to go to another country? You're hard core and I give you much props... I wish I had that kind of mulah!
  4. Yes, this is normal. Overload protection coming on. One of the vices against the original 9398 is that it isn't really that good of a crawler compared to MOCs that gurus here have built. Now add more weight, the winch system, and lights, and the performance is even worse.
  5. Well thread title does say "pimp my boss" - so I wasn't talking about "standard", but hey, it's all about preference. Just saying seasider's mod still fits the new trend here in the US for high risers/ and over sized wheels (see pic):
  6. I think that looks great!!! It goes with the new trend I've been seeing here in California for oversized wheels/rims. Instructions would be greatly appreciated.
  7. Tire bead is the edge of the tire that sits on the wheel. It's the rubber sleeve on madjelly's pic (previous post you commented about) that he was trimming for better fit around the wheel/rim's outside grooves.
  8. Yeah. Those would work too. Just which ever is your preference. I am actually excited to see who in these forums got the lowest production # (who has 00001-10), 20000, and the different ways to numerically spell out BOSS.
  9. No gears were replaced. You just interchange (switch the 2 gears around): the tan 20t gear with the black 12t gear.
  10. Those are cool but I prefer not turning numbers upside down because of how the plate displays "xxxxx of 20000". I think the best number is 13055 for BOSS. I wonder if anyone here got it?
  11. That look's great efferman. It kind of looks more like a 70's Ford Bronco instead of a station wagon. I may go with that look after I enjoy the muscle look in a few months.
  12. You won't have to alter your Crazy Crawler tires. Just a little of fanagling to get the beads fitted perfectly. They even fit the new BOSS wheels I tried it yesterday. Maybe I'll post a pic later.
  13. Mine was just delivered and I got 13008. I think it's awesome cos it spells out "boob"
  14. Not trying to pick a fight or stir up an arguement but I certainly did not say to cheat the system. I was merely stating my belief that "how people spend their money is their own business" and if the system allows it, buying multiples is fair game because any of us (despite moral values) can do the same if you have the means to do so. I was just stating "my opinion" that complaining about people buying multiples and flipping it is pointless and using the "unfair" card is trivial... I am merely identifying the fact that the real world we live in is "not fair", and it always will be. In addition, the "loss" that you are describing is minimal, when in reality we are just talking about toys or as you put it a "hobby". I apologize if I am misundertanding you but I just want to remind you that if your item doesn't ship, your credit card doesn't get charged - so what is it that you lose since there is no exchange in currency? The only loss is the enjoyment that one feels they are obligated to, but again it is still trivial in the overall scheme of things. I won't be posting further about this...
  15. Thanks for the clarification Blackbird and sorry for the misundertanding. Just a little paranoid about RM8's claim that no third party tires can fit on these new wheels.
