Plastic Nurak Posted February 8, 2011 Posted February 8, 2011 I like the yellow Creator car too. I noticed it has steering . Maybe, with some aesthetic modification, it can be modelteamed . Quote
paul_delahaye Posted February 8, 2011 Posted February 8, 2011 There good pictures too,it's so annoying no pics of the other 2 h models or is people not interested in them,they appear to be beside the unimog too ;( what is the xtream cruiser too! There is :-) lol Quote
Dutch_EE Posted February 8, 2011 Posted February 8, 2011 One thing I still miss in the Technic trucks is opening doors. The last one was the tow truck from 2006. I know that they are closed for rigidity, but I think it's a missed 'playing' possibility. Quote

davidmull Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 Anyone know what the Extream cruiser is yet or why all the hush hush over it?has Lego ever kept a model on the quiet like this before? Quote
grohl Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 (edited) Only the TLG employees probably. But I wonder why there are no pictures of the bucket truck. Edited February 9, 2011 by grohl Quote

Nequmodiva Posted February 13, 2011 Posted February 13, 2011 Thanks for the link to this picture, JunkstyleGio. My hope for 8071 was, that it would have a mini LA. But from this picture I rather conclude that it uses a Worm Screw and a 24 Tooth Gear for raising the platform. Quote
AndroTech Posted February 14, 2011 Posted February 14, 2011 Here is the picture from JunkstyleGio. Quote
Aqualize Posted February 14, 2011 Posted February 14, 2011 Here is the picture from JunkstyleGio. Personally I'm not interested at all in this bucket truck. So 2H models on my list is only the unimog. Hope the extreme cruiser is something else than a motorbike (which I'm not so interested in). Quote
freakwave Posted February 14, 2011 Posted February 14, 2011 A few more angles from ftbt's flickrstream. Unfortunately no other Technic pics. fW Quote
Anio Posted February 14, 2011 Posted February 14, 2011 (edited) Great pics ! Some words about the pics : Steering with the 20 tan at the back. Then, probably 12t + 7L rack. Independent outriggers, both with 1 12t in the "trunk". It works like the 8067 mini mobile crane. The knobs on the sides : one for the turntable, the other one for elevating the arm. The first uses 2 8t. The second uses worm gear + 24t. With the pics, we can also see other gears in the chassis : a LBG 16t, a tan 20t, and 2 yellow knob wheels. The hood can be opened, same for the doors. One more thing : it is not the same box that we could see on the photos of the past days. Here, we can clearly see the part number on the box (593). On other technic sets, the part number is not written. Edited February 14, 2011 by Anio Quote

tmumme Posted February 16, 2011 Posted February 16, 2011 Look like we get a white liftarm 1 x 13 thick. Quote
Erik Leppen Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 [quo te name=tmumme' date='16 February 2011 - 10:37 PM' timestamp='1297888679' post='929246] Look like we get a white liftarm 1 x 13 thick. Yes and I believe this now completes the array of liftarms in white, except for the 1 x 2 liftarm. :) 1x7 and 1x11 are in the recent helicopter 1x5, 1x9 and 1x15 were in the tracked crane 1x3 is in the combine Also we have seen 2 x 4, 4 x 6/3 x 7 and 5 x 9 (double-bent) liftarms in the recent Technic fire engine. Only the 3 x 5 L-shape is missing. And also we have some of the new panels in white now. I hope this is an indication of more white sets to come in the future. The parts are there. :) Quote
Matt The Tuba Guy Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 The white truck looks ok. kind of similar to the fire truck from a few years ago except smaller. not sure when I will get more. I have just brought the rest of the 2010 sets which is on its way over now, but I am back to uni on Monday, so I will be a bit tight for money. extreme cruiser sounds interesting. I have a couple of white 3x5 liftarms from the 1:10 Ferrari F1. I quite like white pieces actually. Quote
Anio Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 (edited) Hi, I've found how 8071 works. First, easy, the steering : 12t/rack 7L. Ok, everyone already knew that. Same for the outriggers with the 2 black knobs at the back. But the 2 other (and main) functions were harder to find. So, the knob on the left of the truck is used to rise the arm. A 16t with a 20t double bevel. This 20t is with an other 20t double bevel (not 100% sure about this one, there are maybe 2 knob wheels instead) to get a vertical axis. Then, worm gear/24t. The knob on the right of the truck is used to rotate the arm. There is 16t/20t double bevel again. Then, there is 2 knob wheels to get a vertical axis. And eventually, there is 1 8t (yes, I wrote 1, not 2) which works with the crown of the turntable (56t). The second 8t is not really used in the mechanism. Actually, it is attached with a blue pin with friction. Thus, it is here for the bucket not to be too much shaken. edit : sorry for the mistakes I may have done. I wrote basic sentences for the message to be understandable since my English is not good enough to well explain that kind of things. Edited February 21, 2011 by Anio Quote
DLuders Posted February 26, 2011 Posted February 26, 2011 (edited) On his Flickr photostream, Barman76/ barebos has "reverse-engineered" the 8071 (2H2011) set and posted the four pictures below. He also posted a showing all of the 8071's functions. He wrote, "Thanks to Flickr member fbtb for posting the photos of the Technic set 8071 on 2011 Toy Fair. Because of this I could reverse engineer this set. There where a view details I had to guess which part(s) where used. So with a couple of misstakes I think I come pretty close to the original set."

JunkstyleGio Posted February 26, 2011 Posted February 26, 2011 And what a nice job Barebos/Barman did! Quote
davidmull Posted February 26, 2011 Posted February 26, 2011 I wonder will we get news on what Extream cruiser is soon or will it be nearer release date? Has Lego done this before? Quote
