Shasat Spacerider Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 Why not like this? *snip* Shame those blue pieces don't exist in real life... LEGO, more blue please! Quote

DLuders Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 I'm sure somebody wants to "morph" the 9398 into "Bigfoot" or "Grave Digger" (popular Monster Trucks in the USA), but the colors simply don't (yet) exist in real Lego parts! Quote
JunkstyleGio Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 Did some recoloring on the a and b-mdel too. Quote
allanp Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 The black and yellow one would look great if it weren't for the red chassis. I think light grey would look better. Also like the blue and white one. Quote
z3_2drive Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 I'd like to see a lime or lime and black color scheme, I've seen lego trial trucks like that before Quote
davidmull Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 Original colour looks best can ye not just leave as Lego intended :) Quote
z3_2drive Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 Original colour looks best can ye not just leave as Lego intended :) Original color looks awesome, its just fun to change it up :D Quote
rm8 Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 Why not like this? Man, why don't you make tire and wheel blue like body? Quote
SheepEater Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 :wub: If that set was produced in blue/white I would already have mine, price be darned! Lego, are you listening to your fans? Quote
Rodeown Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 I just finished building the chassis part and can now drive it around and have fun.... what an awesome beast it is, I took 7 pictures during the build but dont know if i should post them or where to post them, as i dont want to upset anyone by doubling up posts of builds on the same model.

DLuders Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 @ Rodeown: Post 'em here! You could create an account of Flickr.com and use the uploaded pictures immediately (unlike Brickshelf). Quote
pluto7443 Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 What is the price for the Crawler at Sherway Gardens? Thanks. BManCan $250, the same as the Unimog, and Excavator. Quote

I couldn't do that :( I'd have to finish the model fully before I drive it to fully appreciate it :) Quote
AVCampos Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 (edited) Of the colour variations posted so far, my favourites are the blue and white one for the A-model (looks so different from usual Technic sets) and the red one for the B-model (reminds me of forest fire trucks). IMHO two is the maximum number of colours for the body to remain nice-looking. Edited July 22, 2012 by AVCampos Quote
Rodeown Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 (edited) @ Rodeown: Post 'em here! You could create an account of Flickr.com and use the uploaded pictures immediately (unlike Brickshelf). I have my own webspace to load em to so can use em straight away, Here goes some build pictures, i made em small, I still need to build the top part of it but have not been too well so am doing it slow. EDIT: Added the rest of the build photos. Changed the wheels for the unimog hubs and the Ansman tyres... I like it better than the black wheel rims. Obviously the unimog has no wheels now so i put the crawler wheels on to it... looking good Edited July 23, 2012 by Rodeown Quote
Technic Gearhead Posted July 23, 2012 Posted July 23, 2012 I think you're onto something with the all black with yellow accents! I don't mind the red frame with that combo either. We should have a 9398 re-coloring contest once everyone has had a chance to get one. Quote
jadedomg Posted July 23, 2012 Posted July 23, 2012 It really pops in the blue, I wonder if using panels from the williams F-1 Racer would help, I know they aren't the same as the new one but I am sure it could be made to work. Quote
timslegos Posted July 23, 2012 Posted July 23, 2012 I like the red b model. With a rear cage, it could look like na off road fire truck. tim Quote
Edwin Korstanje Posted July 23, 2012 Posted July 23, 2012 Did some recoloring on the a and b-mdel too. I like the red B model the most Quote
chorlton Posted July 23, 2012 Posted July 23, 2012 Bought 9398 yesterday. Finished building it tonight. It's not wrong to drive it over your five month old daughter as she lies on her play-mat is it? Quote
Blakbird Posted July 23, 2012 Posted July 23, 2012 It's not wrong to drive it over your five month old daughter as she lies on her play-mat is it? Of course that's not wrong! Neither is it wrong to jump your radio control car over your nephews. Quote
