Posted November 24, 201212 yr V-LC-21E Hello, In the community, I am mainly known for my UCS Star Wars models. But I want to explore different themes now. And I choose City for my first non Star Wars MOC. Here is my garbage truck, a 299 part model. Hope you like it.

November 24, 201212 yr Awesome looking truck. The only thing I see in common with the Toy Story truck is the color, but obviously both you and LEGO had the same company in mind when choosing that color. This reminds me of the garbage trucks that my home town was using when I grew up (now we have the auto-loading trucks). I think you've captured the look better than LEGO's recent garbage trucks. It looks so real that I had a flashback to the smell, sights (dripping liquids) and other nastiness that followed those trucks around town - and I mean that in a good way. I just had another memory flash into my head, during snow storms they even fitted these with snow plows and used them to supplement their plowing fleet. Thanks for the trip down memory lane - well, at least thanks for the good memories but maybe not for the smell and dripping nasty liquids.
November 24, 201212 yr How can one improve on what Lego released this year......you did 'Anio'.....very realistic and functional too ! Brick On Truck On 'Anio' !

November 25, 201212 yr This is great. Looks just like the real thing. The colours remind me of the Toy Story rubbish truck, but I think the similarities end there.
November 25, 201212 yr Nice job! It has been scaled down very well. This has been on my to do list for a while but we keep getting Garbage trucks as sets so I have had no need to make any more. After seeing your version, I just might have to get my butt in gear. Play Well
November 26, 201212 yr A very beautiful truck Anio. Very detailed and very close to an original truck. Good work and brick on.
November 26, 201212 yr Author Thank you. Very nice and clean (no pun intended ) truck A clean design, both regarding the details and the way the model is built, is indeed essential to have a nice model. With my UCS models, I always aimed at achieving a clean design.
November 27, 201212 yr It should be a LEGO set, awesome. It's so real and remember me toy story garbage truck. Bravo!
November 28, 201212 yr I really like both this and your transport truck. This has a front end design that's similar to the official LEGO trucks, but different enough to stand out. The tiles on the container sides are also very nice, and I love how you've followed the Toy Story truck colour scheme. A great garbage truck that would look good in any layout!

Well, to be honnest, I did not look at the toys story truck when I did my model. And until you mentionned it, it was a model I barely remembered. I worked with that single pic : Edited November 28, 201212 yr by Anio
November 28, 201212 yr The dark green color of the dump bin is far too scrumptious looking for a garbage truck! Great MOC, Anio. You've captured the source material ideally - and I particularly like the fact that you've included a female driver. Diversity..!
November 29, 201212 yr Great work, really nice looking MOC. I am looking forward to making one of these for myself using your build. Thanks!
October 17, 20168 yr Nice garbage truck. This truck looks like an actual lego truck that they would put in stores! Well done Anio.  Oh, by the way I realy like the tipping feature and the coulour scheme.Keep it up.
