December 25, 201410 yr Here is my copy, built only with the pictures I can't believe you did this with only pictures! That's amazing work. It is odd to see a picture of my table sitting on a screen on your table.
December 25, 201410 yr Hello Denny, Very nice looking copy, I asume it is due to lack off parts that you have build it in four colours? But very hard to do from only pictures. Very nice touch with the LED's on the sides front and back. Did you only use one rechargable batterypack? And Lucio, maybe a nice touch those extra lights on the side, frontbumper and working tail-lights Yes, I didn't had enough parts in one color. Edited December 25, 201410 yr by Denny
December 25, 201410 yr Damn Denny, that's seriously impressive. It's hard enough building this truck with instructions
December 25, 201410 yr Very nice work, I especially like the dashboard and interior and the yellow "closet" hiding the switch and valves.

December 26, 201410 yr Author Hi Lucio, since you are doing the instructions for this any chance of getting instructions done for you racing truck?. Unfortunately no! But B Mollema has done a copy with different motors only by some picture that I have send to him. Maybe it's not easy, but if you want... Hello Lucio, I know this might be a stupid question, but even though you have already dismanteled the trailer, is there still a chance on instructions for the trailer? I know there is a team of amazing building experts working on the instructions of the truck? Some of them build models from only pictures on the web. Unfortunately no! I have only few pictures of the trailer and only in the early stages. Here is my copy, built only with the pictures I'm impressed, you deserve my admiration!! :thumbup: I love the amount of Led...unfortunately i have only 2 of them!
December 26, 201410 yr ... It is odd to see a picture of my table sitting on a screen on your table. ... Especially that both your/his tables are solid wood. Threw me off at first, as in: why would BlakBird be building from his own pictures? ... but then realized the wood grain was 'different'.
December 28, 201410 yr I'm so curious about the instructions! I've gotten my self one 8258 one 8110 and one 42029 for this! I'm very anxious to build it! :)
December 29, 201410 yr Are these sets that contain a lot of the parts? For this model, no set has a large percentage of the massive number of parts. A couple of copies of 42029 would be a good start for all the red panels and suspension parts.
December 30, 201410 yr Author I'm so curious about the instructions! I've gotten my self one 8258 one 8110 and one 42029 for this! I'm very anxious to build it! :) Are these sets that contain a lot of the parts? For what I remember, at the time, the main models that I used were 2 x 8070, 2x 8110, 2x 42000, a 8258 and a 9398, and probably some other parts from other sets. In addition I bought the XL Motors, Unimog tyres, some red panels and, more or less, 3,5m of pneumatic tubes. I agree with Blackbird, 2x 42029 could be a good start. At that time, I paid the same price of a 42029 only for some red 5x11 panels. Good News, Jantjeuh is almost at the end of the instructions test, I have to do some changes and some pics for be more clear, but we are even closer to the end.

December 30, 201410 yr Yeah it's taking a while, but then again, the model is so bloody big Working on the final steps for the cab now.
December 30, 201410 yr Author Those sets alone are good for almost 12.000 parts! Any idea of the final partcount already? Well, them are donors, I didn't use all the parts, but these sets are very useful for some parts, like red panels and beams, suspensions elements, motors...the truck is almost 4600 parts.
December 30, 201410 yr And it's heavy. Don't even think about cheaping out on the hard yellow springs!
January 1, 201510 yr Wow it doesn't even fit on the table! May I ask, how much bigger is the tractor truck than lets say the unimog u400 or the Volvo l350f
January 1, 201510 yr Look at the renders Blackbird placed on november 20th, can't get it copied to here. Edited January 1, 201510 yr by Dafgek81
January 1, 201510 yr Wow it doesn't even fit on the table! May I ask, how much bigger is the tractor truck than lets say the unimog u400 or the Volvo l350f It dwarfs both. It's the biggest MOC I've ever built, by far. Heavy, too.
January 1, 201510 yr It's sooooo cool! I'm really longing for the instructions! How long is it in centimeters?
January 1, 201510 yr It appears the tires are 'small' for the truck. I know these are the largest Lego makes (unimog), but nonetheless. Are the tires to scale relative to some European truck (Scania, MAN, or else) ? Edited January 1, 201510 yr by DrJB
