That sucks!

Well done to everyone who figured it all out.  I guess TLG don't really need to release it now

I like that B model. It would've be boring, if that would have been some telehandler.

The B model shows that there is a pneumatic hose connector somewhere in the A model. The question is where is it and why would that connector appear in this set.

Too late, it is lost.

Anyone else's eyes mildly bleeding at the colour scheme?

Orange looks pretty cool, but maybe blue would work even better?

No, it looks like a JCB 260 with a Manitou paint job.

Looks good in yellow, but the arm and the panels on the cab need to be black for the JCB look.

On the other (invisible) end of that 6l red axle under the cabin you mean? I was thinking the same...

Please stay on topic and be nice.

Thanks.

Let's not tell other members what to do. Leave that to the staff.
Also, please try not to quote pictures from the previous post or from the same page, it makes it tedious to follow.

Thanks.

Maybe somewhere under the seat, maybe there is different connection between upper and lower parts?

But could be also that stop.

It should be easy to design alternate attachments for this thing, given that the bucket is attached with two pins. Bale spike would be my first choice.

So far I like the orange version most, but too bad it's not buildable, because the T 3x3 liftarm so far has only appears in some ill-fated m̶i̶l̶i̶t̶a̶r̶y̶ canceled set this year, and the 3L connector in orange has only appeared in 3 sets so far, the most recent of which was released in 2004. The rim in orange has only appeared in two sets so far also.

Epic cute set.

The B-model is fine to me. It's better than nothing!

I like that B-model. It shows why B-models were invented in the first place: how to take parts of one thing and turn them into something completely different. And I don't think it's bad execution at that at all.

I'd say it's an alright/imperfect execution. There's been some cooler B-models in the past, but I appreciate TLG trying to include a B-model.

That pneumatic hose connector is an odd piece to have in the set.  My guess is it's used under the seat and prevents the back of the seat from moving back and hitting the 12t gear.

As for the color schemes, I like the black and yellow one.  The orange and white scheme is also nice, but I think I'd prefer that with black rims.

Red-white-black = Bobcat!

But I think Bobcat doesn't produce single piece boom loaders.
