msk6003 Posted May 28, 2020 Posted May 28, 2020 So.... no new transmission or driving-related part? only new panel and wheel? Quote
icm Posted May 28, 2020 Posted May 28, 2020 I skipped the 42056 and 42083, but I think this one has finally convinced me to take the plunge ... Still gonna wait for a review though, not gonna buy it on day one without a review. Quote
BrickbyBrickTechnic Posted May 28, 2020 Posted May 28, 2020 This looks amazing in the official pictures, forget anything I said before! I may just have to buy it :) Quote

So I think it’s fair to say that they are the same size; in size and also in parts count. The opening doors might need some extra pins to be solid ?... Read this whole thread and all references to part count say 3696, not 3969. Quote

The Chiron is 3599, the Sian is 3969...a difference of 370. Right? Am I missing something?

Bugatti is 3599. The Sian is not 3969 but instead 3696 parts... I’m not sure what the box art said of the Sian box images earlier in the thread. I would be surprised if it had that many more parts anyways ?... Edited May 28, 2020 by Wimmer Quote

I did so with the Porsche as well. Awesome looking model; by far the best of the three (which makes sense because they should get better every time !) “...I’m,...H...A...P...P...Y...” Opening door, hood, steering, transmission paddle shift and then?! Another display set Sound like we repeating get previously and eventually SOLD again the money for next same thing Come on.. it’s just another pile of ABS plastic Many people lost their job & income after the pandemic, €380 definitely can do alot useful things & helpful for your family.... I would then save the €280 and put my whole stack €99 on the cement mixer ? Quote

I would then save the €280 and put my whole stack €99 on the cement mixer ? It’s true that a lot of people lost their job. I work as an engineer in healthcare, so I still have a job. Also a job that could be dangerous. Both my wife and I still get paid normally and are on the frontline doing so; so I think I’m allowed to spent, when I still can. But I do agree with you otherwise. If the job was gone I would not buy this one; better yet, I would, and probably had to, be selling my other sets as well. Hope you stay healthy as well... 4 minutes ago, mkbryant said: The cached lego page they're getting all these images from has this text...I can't imagine they'd let it get to this stage of publishing without this HUGE mistake being caught, unless it isn't a mistake. Interesting. Ok, sorry, maybe you’re right. I could definitely be wrong; it happened before... Quote

Well I'll be. Box does say 3696. I can't believe they'd have a typo on a page that obviously has been uploaded and was already live at one point. You'd think they would have edited and reviewed that page loads of times before it got anywhere near the actual server. Quote
Bartybum Posted May 28, 2020 Posted May 28, 2020 (edited) The front looks really nice, but I'm not sold on the proportions of the back half - I've seen better Edited May 28, 2020 by Bartybum Quote

I would then save the €280 and put my whole stack €99 on the cement mixer ? That pile of ABS plastic is the reason we are all here, talking about it over and over again. And you're right, that's a lot of money to drop on something that just sits there, looking pretty, especially in these tough times. But, considering there is nowhere to go, nothing to do, no trips and no gas I'm spending money on, I figure this is a pretty good way to pass the time, yeah? I think of it as self-care, and damnit I will get this wonderful pile of ABS I think it looks fantastic. There hasn't been a big Lego Technic car I've really, really wanted. I can't wait to see all its features! Edited May 28, 2020 by moebiusfactor Quote
letsbuild Posted May 28, 2020 Posted May 28, 2020 I haven't seen anyone point out the red ball-joint pins that can be seen in this picture:\ Are they new? Quote

I've seen them in Dom's Charger set, and haven't seen them in anything else before, so I assume they were new too. Before they were just black, and I think grey before that. Quote
SheldonF Posted May 28, 2020 Posted May 28, 2020 (edited) I think it looks amazing. States there will be pushrod suspension as well Edited May 28, 2020 by SheldonF Quote

SheldonF Posted May 28, 2020 Posted May 28, 2020 There is. Just unsure if it's a hinge or just snapped in place. But there is a cover with the black wings. Quote
Vectormatic Posted May 28, 2020 Posted May 28, 2020 Am i the only one who is terribly amused by the fact they made the carbon fibre x brace on top of the engine out of freaking flex axles? Otherwise it all looks good, should be an entertaining build and one hell of a display piece Quote
