BrickMonkeyMOCs Posted May 31, 2018 Posted May 31, 2018 Very excited for this new luggage set. Apparently there's some kind of vehicle accessory included as well. Quote
Cumulonimbus Posted May 31, 2018 Posted May 31, 2018 A bit late to the party, but I agree that the Chiron model is a worthy successor to the Porsche in the Technic "UCS" series. On several fronts, TLG has raised the bar again for these high-end sets. Still would have like to see a bit more/new functions, but hey, it's a car so I guess the options will always be limited. The brick build key with a function is a nice touch. I really like the new gearbox part. It's exactly what you need to build a realistic motorbike gearbox. I wouldn't be surprised we will see exactly that when a new Technic motorcycle set appears. On a similar note: I am disappointed in the disk brakes though: With the integration of the snap connector, the possibilities for other applications (for example in a motorbike) are very small BTW, the image of the complete model in the building instructions (see below) on the right doesn't do any favors for this model. This perspective really highlights the limitations of the current wheel hubs: the position of the pivot point required the clearance around the wheels to be relatively big to give the wheels room to move, hence the big wheel arch pieces. The result is that the wheels look too small from some points of view, something which was already apparent in the Porsche. I'm still on the fence about purchasing this set. I guess the upcoming review from @Jim or @Sariel could still convince me. 8 hours ago, Tommy Styrvoky said: [...] Quote

Timoonn Posted May 31, 2018 Posted May 31, 2018 The hype around this set is getting ridiculous. Quote

Frantechnic Posted May 31, 2018 Posted May 31, 2018 (edited) I often read this forum and i decided register for share the video, It´s not a secret, the video is on several FB groups. I don´t understand why was deleted, in other topics like this are filtered photos about rought crane 42082 btw sorry for the mistake, have a nice day :-) Edited May 31, 2018 by Frantechnic Quote

Still cant wait to get it, but I guess for the next set of this magnitude I'll have to consider avoiding even EB. Edited May 31, 2018 by Ascius Quote

Lipko Posted May 31, 2018 Posted May 31, 2018 Hmm, things are getting ridiculously serius here. It would be nice if someone with marketing background would explain how much damage the leak (only a few days before the actual release) has caused for TLG. I, for one, am buying the model because of the leak. On the other hand, the guys asking for photos, posting photos and videos in every second post show how immature people are in general. Seriously, where's the self-discipline and how come adults don't know how to behave? Quote

I'd gladly take your advice, but this is currently outside my neighbour's house: And this is the only film playing at my local cinema... Back on topic somewhat - Was there a unique number on the Porsche? I'd normally wait for a cheaper price, but I'm a little worried that this will fly off the shelves.

Erik Leppen Posted May 31, 2018 Posted May 31, 2018 (edited) The problem with this whole leaking thing is that if 99 people behave (by not leaking) and 1 doesn't (by leaking), then as a group, the 100 people together have leaked. What's in he best interest of the group (not leaking) is opposite to what is in the best interest of the individual (leaking). That's why there will always be leaks, and this can be beaten only in one way - don't give anything away. There are only leaks because there have been sets in the wild before Jun 1. TLC shouldn't have shipped anything before Jun 1 if they wanted to prevent leaks. I understand they aren't happy, but there is simply no way to guarantee secrecy if you give anything away, even to people you trust. If it's in the wild, it's in the wild. That's how things work in the internet age. Edited May 31, 2018 by Erik Leppen Quote
Jim Posted May 31, 2018 Posted May 31, 2018 Okay, let’s get back on topic of the actual set/model. Quote
