8068 Rescue Helicopter discussion

[Kronos]

bought a set tonight MISB 8068, paid $20.

the lady who sold it said his son doesn't like it...

here's the only flaw...his son punctured the box, but seals are intact

Great deal! That's a great parts set.

thanks, also yesterday I was looking for the same set displayed on a department store. It was the last one on the shelf. I have second thoughts of buying it since the price was $50.... I backed out at the last minute and when I got home and searched the local internet posting for lego technic, a same set popped in!

Glad I waited for a few hours!

Does anyone know how to motorize the helicopter? It'll be much better motorized!

It is indeed a nice set, I have 2 copies...not as cool as the monster 9396 but for a mid-size set it is worth it if you can find it at a reasonable price, I like the 3-rotor blade, realistic, I wanted the 8046 as well but it is far out-priced now...as far as PF motorization, that would be a nice addition...I believe it is retired now, so up goes the price...

got a chance to buy another set, used , cheap, but in mint condition. stickers were still unused and didn't bother to stick 'em..built the B model and it's a nice model altogether

Hi!

I saw this set to be sold out for 20 Euro.

Should I get it for this price?

Any opinions ;O)

I love almost any chopper, so I would say yes!

Reminds that I still need to pick one up myself.

I'm not a huge fan of helicopter models, but this looks nice
