Not only that there is only one rare one in your collection, but the guy to Mr Green's left, Grey plain Torso with grey arms, also not available unless someone have changed the arms and used some brasso to remove the printing, but this thing which appears to make this one also rare is that he has blue feet and a dark grey helmet and visor, also not available in any set I'm aware of.

Jackpot I'd say without even realising!

@ sorfri2: Your green Lego Technic Figure is apparently very rare! Maybe he's the "big brother" to the Lego Leprechaun minifig! :classic:

in flickr, at the bottom on the right there is a little white box with a arrow in it. Click that to bring up a small menu.

Choose, Grab the HTML/BBCode

Choose BB code

then medium 800x600, copy the code that appears and paste that into the text you write here.

Hope that helps. :laugh:

Yes it is clear you have not painted it, im guessing from the face design he is very old.

Ah, I knew there would be a thread here discussing techfigs, and I wasn't disappointed! :grin:

I also thought a few times about them, and why wasn't TLG including them in sets any more. I think the twio main reasons are those already expressed here: the focus of Technic sets is more the machines themselves and not the people operating them, and constraining a model to techfig scale can be hard and limiting the freedom of design.

However, they really liven up any Technic layout, and their increased poseability allows for lots more variety than standard minifigs. Speaking of variety, it's a shame that techfigs aren't more modular and the legs/arms/torsos/heads/hairs aren't meant to be exchanged... and the limited number of pre-built variations doesn't help either. :look:

Also, a techfig is a complex construction, comprised of many different parts. Surely it weighed (and would still weigh today) considerably on a set's budget, which could otherwise be used for more regular parts. So I'm not sure if it would be a good thing for TLG to relaunch techfigs. I say "relaunch" because the techfig as we know it could seriously use a revamp: at least more modularity to create more variety, and male and female body parts (BTW, that techfig girl looks really cute! :wub: ).

What do you guys think? If the majority of you think TLG should make techfigs again, can we elaborate on some kind of pitch to forward to TLG to try convince them?

AVCampos81 used many posable Lego Technic Figures in his

showing a "LEGO Technic desert race layout. Each buggy has rear solid axle suspension, differential connected to a V4 engine, steering and front pendular axle. The TV van has steering (Hand of God and at the driver's seat), rear differential, V6 engine, and tiltable/rotatable satellite dish."

Wow, I never though anyone would pay attention to that layout. :laugh: It had an expanded version earlier this year at my LUG's event (with more area, vehicles, and funny events happening), but unfortunately I didn't take many photos of it and surely didn't film it.

Bring them back! I have a few of them and got a "new" one in a set i bought on ebay :) I used to include them in the models i built when i was younger. Was part of the challenge me and my friend used for our building :)

OMG I'm very jealous of that green and grey figures, they have lots of exclusive parts, like the non-black feet... :wub:

I also knew another exclusive and very rare figure that I do not own... It seems to be from a convention about plastic injection and moulding...

Any chance to listen for offers?? :laugh:

Hallo

I like also the technic - figures, because this fits very good to my technic - mocs. The figures are a little bit to small in scale, but anyway better then no figures.

I own some technic - figures, and two very rare one. This one who posted "parda" before, the blue - white ones written on the body "Tag der offenen Tür, 21. Juni 1997, Baar". It means in english translatet "Day open doors, 21. June 1997, Baar". Baar is a little city in Switzerland near Zug, where some years before was a Lego factory. After Lego change the factory in city Willisau, and also later Lego stop production in Switzerland (very bad).

I dont was in the open day this time, i dont know why, mabey i was in my dark ages (City Baar was only 30 minutes drive by car from my home). I become this two figures in a kg - buy from an online-auction-house.

In this picture from Steinchenwelt 2011, you see this two rare figures seat in the two trucks MAN + Mercedes.

I hope also Lego bring back this nice figures.
