April 22, 201311 yr Hi, don´t know if someone already posted these, but maybe some of you haven´t seen the latest detail pics of the Boss Crawler. Greetz Markus Edited April 22, 201311 yr by MarkusOSX
April 22, 201311 yr Oh, it seems that The Lego Group modified their April 9, 2013 Lego Technic Designers Blog entry to include those pictures. EK = Egor Karshiev (rm8).
April 22, 201311 yr why not just make motor shaped boxes to fix the space I will most likely have to do that. Also since I will have this set as display only I wired power to my display shelf connected to a timer. The lights on the model will be connected to that and will come on when it gets dark.
April 25, 201311 yr :) 5x11 orange panels are very expensive on BL. This modification is cool, but expensive:) u need minimum 6x Uminogs G'day. Havn't had a chance to congratulate you on winning the comp. Well done mate. The look of the blue Boss is pretty cool, My kids love it. I made the truck style "loghead" but only posted pics rendered cause the one I made was all different colours and didn't look appealing. Its good they kept your winch and lights. Cheers

Hope you kids will like to play with it! Or you wanna pu it on the shelve?:))
April 25, 201311 yr Have LEGO officially given us a release date? i can only find this: "Driven by our desire to bring you this limited edition model as quickly as possible, we have had to make a lot of very rapid design decisions" And this: "So, finally, it’s time to press the big green ‘Go’ button in our factory and in a few weeks the first trucks will leave our warehouse in Billund carrying a very special cargo! Wherever you are in the world, we hope that this exclusive, limited edition model will give you as much pleasure as it has given us!" a few weeks?
April 25, 201311 yr I was reading this forum for like 1 year, waiting for "special set" wchich would bring me back to Lego. I guess i found one. I am so happy that we get extra M motor and lights :)

April 25, 201311 yr Is this really the licence plate or just the model number ? According to Lego blog plate should be printed and individually numbered. So it will be something like EK-00001 to EK-20000.
April 25, 201311 yr thx @hrontos for the info Do you think the licence number will also be on the outside of the box ? Greetz Markus
April 25, 201311 yr Do you think the licence number will also be on the outside of the box ? I have no idea what technical possibilities they have (it would make packaging a bit more complicated) and if they even want to show you on the box what is in the box.
April 26, 201311 yr Author thx @hrontos for the info Do you think the licence number will also be on the outside of the box ? Greetz Markus I think No, cause it is really hard to syncronize part with print inside the box and print at the box. It is very hard handwork for 20000 pcs. I think that all boxes will be equal, and in each box they put different number plate. Edited April 26, 201311 yr by rm8

April 26, 201311 yr The latest timetable was posted on The Lego Group's Facebook page and reported in this Brickset article: "More details about this have emerged on Facebook: Just 20,000 will be made, it will be priced at US$199.99, CA$249.99, £139.99, €179.99, DKK1499, and will be available from August 1st 2013, with pre-orders starting on July 1st."
April 26, 201311 yr Yes, but the preorder is cancelled. So the latest timetable said that the release date is on August 1st.
April 26, 201311 yr Do the prize winners get it in July then? May be even earlier, I suppose they may ask prize winners to comment the building instructions or whatever. Just to have at least some "user" test to make sure TLG did not overllooked something in such hurry. So receiving in July would be quite late for bug-fixing.

I sure hope we get it soon (I got in the top 100). I have been dying to build it!
April 28, 201311 yr I sure hope we get it soon (I got in the top 100). I have been dying to build it! Yeah! Me too. Just can't wait to receive my own!!!
April 30, 201311 yr Noob questions here any people from holland here who ordered via the NL lego shop? ( http://shop.lego.com/en-NL/ ). Will the Boss Crawler also be available for this region? I would like to set up an account so I can order it as soon it hits the shop. Thanks
May 24, 201311 yr Author My dream-vacation begins: Going to Hamburg tomorrow, then to Billund. Hope that next week I'll bring you news about 41999. Stay tuned;) http://newhotelus.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/vacation.jpg Edited May 24, 201311 yr by Rick Please keep embedded images to a maximum of 800 x 600 pixels
