To be honest; I am not really sure what I am allowed to hint. I still need to find out. I am always careful, even when it comes to showing box images for "upcoming reviews". Quote

danielfmo Posted July 12, 2018 Posted July 12, 2018 Hello everyone, Isn't it possible to have access to the part list of this set? There are already a lot of pictures of people buying this set at Legoland Billund for example Thank you in advance Quote

It's a respect/etiquette thing. Besides, imagine you make a movie, would you want people's all important first impressions to be based on grainy, low quality, partial leaks, or a well thought out official presentation? There's also the issue of those cretins in China stealing Lego's ittelectual property, we really don't want to give them any help at all by showing them what parts in what colour and what quantity they need to produce in order to leech off of Lego any sooner than necessary. So as for why they are selling the sets in Legoland already, I have no idea. Edited July 13, 2018 by allanp Quote
Bartybum Posted July 13, 2018 Posted July 13, 2018 @allanp Mate they’re gonna do it anyway. This just delays the problem Quote

TLG's logic is out the window here. Anyway, steering us back to 42082, it's really really big! Discuss. Quote
Ngoc Nguyen Posted July 13, 2018 Author Posted July 13, 2018 It's been discussed to death and beyond already. Quote

Unless everyone was okay with the availability discussion? 'Cause I'd swim to Denmark right now to grab a 42081! Maybe throw in the forklift as well. Quote

Finally black banana gears! :) If you need any more picture just let me know. Currently I'm assembling this set. Quote

Erik Leppen Posted July 14, 2018 Posted July 14, 2018 (edited) Things I noticed in the part list: First set to come with 5x7 frames in two colors First set to come with dog bones in two colors 6 driving rings, but only 4 changeover catches? So there must be a 4-way (or more) switchbox that uses one switch to control two or more driving rings. Why orange and green 3x5 beams? Also, yellow beams, blue #1 connectors, white bushes-with-pinhole, for no other apparent reason than easy part distinguishability No blue 20t clutch gears Has at least 117 gears, which is quite a lot Edited July 14, 2018 by Erik Leppen Quote
JonathanM Posted July 14, 2018 Posted July 14, 2018 4 minutes ago, Erik Leppen said: 6 driving rings, but only 4 changeover catches? Why? Because one catch is used for 3 rings in the H style gearbox at the top. Quote
mortenm Posted July 14, 2018 Posted July 14, 2018 3 minutes ago, JonathanM said: Because one catch is used for 3 rings in the H style gearbox at the top. And 1 gearbox on either side for outriggers and slewing plus 1 to shift between those 2 and the H-box. Quote
Jeroen Ottens Posted July 14, 2018 Posted July 14, 2018 It is quite an asymmetric model: 5 left, 6 right small red panels only 1 5x7 curved red panel 3 left 3x5 red panels 1 right 3x7 red panel I've never seen so many unmatched panels in one set ever. Quote

Dalafik Posted July 15, 2018 Posted July 15, 2018 Not a single worm gear? And how does the boom stay in place when extended? Also, RIP my intention to build a forklift as a C-Model. Quote
TechnicRCRacer Posted July 15, 2018 Posted July 15, 2018 Studded beams in the parts list? Oooooh. Quote
Ngoc Nguyen Posted July 15, 2018 Author Posted July 15, 2018 The chassis is wide but the gear rack is only 7L and there is no tow ball connector liftarm -> Ackermann steering Quote
