Edwin Korstanje Posted March 22, 2013 Posted March 22, 2013 You have complete right David. The boss don"t need stickers to be beautyful Quote
sama Posted March 22, 2013 Posted March 22, 2013 (edited) I like this, its blue (like a good blue for once)! Edited March 22, 2013 by sama Quote
z3_2drive Posted March 22, 2013 Posted March 22, 2013 MUST HAVE! hopefully I can get this, I like the new sets but that blue, and those wheels, and...EVERYTHING! really great job Quote
rm8 Posted March 22, 2013 Author Posted March 22, 2013 (edited) Mates, I dont want to open all secrets and answer all your questions now. Detailed presentation is part of the plan, so lets save something for that;) I can comment some objective things: 1. I really dont like color scheme of 9398. Without stickers it looks like it was created at scrapyard from two different cars: front from black civil car and white back from pickup. And only stickers help to avoid this absurd. We decided to make new model with racing stickers, but also saved possibility to make it look good without them. 2. Color was selected long before pools, but pools confirmed that we going right way:) 3. Windshield was reinforced with thin liftarms, cause there were problems with roof if you grab model by hand. 9398 has shorter roof without that problem. 4. Model was stretched some studs.

timslegos Posted March 22, 2013 Posted March 22, 2013 That BLUE is amazing. I will be buying one. tim Quote
jorgeopesi Posted March 22, 2013 Posted March 22, 2013 I like the reinforzed roof, I like the solid constructions . Quote
JunkstyleGio Posted March 22, 2013 Posted March 22, 2013 The final model looks fine indeed! Again my congrats to RM8! Quote
Stephan Posted March 22, 2013 Posted March 22, 2013 I really hope that they will use the transparent stickers. On such a limited set we don't want to have peeling stickers! Quote
davidmull Posted March 22, 2013 Posted March 22, 2013 How do u mean the top 100 voters get one free? What qualifies people for this? Also will this set be in limited numbers or only sold on lego shop .com? Quote
Porty Posted March 22, 2013 Posted March 22, 2013 Cannot find the jaw-drop button... I love it... Also we get those new style 3x11's in Dark Blue!!! Too bad it is not regular blue, but TLG has listened to its fans this time around... My boss should be shipped in Dark Blue (From Technicbricks): Now it looks much better than that though: Quote
Porty Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 Two things I'd really love to know... Price and Piece Count... Quote
Interceptor Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 Congratulations to rm8 and TLG. The final model is fascinating. I will buy one. Quote
legotechnicyiayia Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 Good day all Congratulations to rm8 and TLG, definately final model looks fantastic. Do not misunderstand me, but has anyone noticed that on www.brickset.com there is now 3 models still without a photo. That is the 42001 Mini Off-Roader, the 42005 Monster Truck, photos and videos both of which, we have all seen around. With the announcement of the Boss given the No.41999, there seems to be one model left, the 42003. I am either missing something badly here, or there is one model which we still havent seen at all..?? Sorry to run a little bit of topic on my first post, again many bravos to rm8 and TLG for great job done. I had promised myself not to spend another bunch of money for another 9398 with different body, but now this looks impossible, as the new color scheme looks fantastic and the final outcome is great. As someone commented earlier, the bodywork looks like the General Lee on a 4x4 monster. rm8 you are a very lucky person, well done to you. I didnt vote for your model, to be honest, i thought that the best model was one of hrontos, the Skidder, but obviously it was not qualified.. Nevertheless, when I saw your model, I thought ouaou, this looks absolutely great, but still didnt have that something, that would make me want it.. But now I can surely state I will buy it.. I have been a lego technic junkie for the last 3 years now, i own 31 sets and TLG manages to leave me speechless for every single model I built, I cant wait for the release of August sets.. Thanks for taking the time to read my first post, again sorry to be little bit off topic, would still appreciate a clarification for 42003, and again many congratulations!!!!! Quote
Porty Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 (edited) 9398 sales shall go to ZERO. BTW, Love my new icon. Hope Rm8 has no problem with it. Edited March 23, 2013 by Porty Quote
z3_2drive Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 that 42003 really is a mystery...I hope it's not another pull-back...maybe the set does not exist? Quote
Porty Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 This is the 42003 That was olso whit I found in mine search for it. Quote
vmln8r Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 That was olso whit I found in mine search for it. Mocking another member's english? Lame. I thought you had to be over 18 to register here? Quote

JaapTechnic Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 how will TLG contact us when someone of us is in the top 100 voted list? and how do we know that we are on that list? btw great model! Quote
