rm8 Posted January 10, 2013 Author Posted January 10, 2013 Just build trial park at the yard, and recorded new interesting video. Quote
DLuders Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 ...what wheels are those non Lego ones? Link? From this Eurobricks topic:"Third party tires for Lego Technic RIms": Quote
jadedomg Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 Voted for it just now :) If TLG makes it I will be picking it up for sure. Quote
rm8 Posted January 11, 2013 Author Posted January 11, 2013 (edited) 2 laps at winter track trial track This video is longer than previous, but more interesting, not "stupid snow driving";) 3rd party scale rc model tires. copy of Ansmann tires. It was too dark to record same video with another tires. Batteries was cold empty:( Today is about -20C. Not sure I can drive outdoor witj NiMh accus. May be LiPo will resist such cold, what do you think? Edited January 14, 2013 by rm8 Quote
z3_2drive Posted January 12, 2013 Posted January 12, 2013 (edited) voted for BOSS, although looks like enforcer might win, either way both models are great, I only like the enforcer because of the vast number of parts, which lego will most likely take away to save weight, so it loses its purpose for me, while this one is perfect as it is for an official model Edited January 12, 2013 by z3_2drive Quote
efferman Posted January 12, 2013 Posted January 12, 2013 this looks so great and you got my vote Quote
rm8 Posted January 12, 2013 Author Posted January 12, 2013 Dont give up my voters. We have many time to win.:) Quote
jadedomg Posted January 12, 2013 Posted January 12, 2013 Maybe lego will knock enforcer out of the running if its too part heavy and go with the obviously superior muscle car :) Quote
Gene Posted January 13, 2013 Posted January 13, 2013 Kids will tune-in more for police related models. For the obvious reason, I asked my nephews: "you want police car or muscle car"? I'll get the muscle car myself then... Quote
Ondra Posted January 13, 2013 Posted January 13, 2013 Maybe lego will knock enforcer out of the running if its too part heavy and go with the obviously superior muscle car :) IMHO Enforcer is the greatest TC entry I ever seen. Quote
_techniclego55_ Posted January 13, 2013 Posted January 13, 2013 THE BOSS Crawler... let's vote guys.. !!!! Quote
rm8 Posted January 14, 2013 Author Posted January 14, 2013 (edited) Power Pullers test track driving Only one video left to post - standard tires, of course without differentials:) Edited January 14, 2013 by rm8 Quote
hrontos Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 IMHO Enforcer is the greatest TC entry I ever seen. It is not an art to make it look great with an unlimited part count. It has more than 2500 parts and that makes roughly $100 difference comparing to original 9398. I have some doubts, that it will stay as it is. That would be largest technic set ever. Price may reach almost the price of the new mindstorms set. Quote

z3_2drive Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 (edited) how? enforcer has 536, so I can say that it is cheating too... votes can come in over time or all at once-I waited and decided to vote on BOSS, not right away. I'm sure there are more than enough possible voters to make that happen, but cheating is not out of the question EDIT: multiple accounts maybe?? Edited January 15, 2013 by z3_2drive Quote
Zerobricks Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 Maybe because the competiton was posted on eurobricks frontpage? Quote
rm8 Posted January 15, 2013 Author Posted January 15, 2013 (edited) There will be no police cruiser, because somebody is cheating.Boss gained over 250 votes in one day .That is legally imposibble... Of course impossible, especially when today my post in one russian forum was viewed 1108 times for 6 hours from posting- no I did not pay many for votes, but theoretically 150 votes from 1100 viewers looks real....but this is only one post, there are many reposters...My lego technic society grew up 50% for one week, and every hour I receive one more subscriber at youtube channel. Agitation is not denied. I am not interested in cheating - site is controlled by TLG, and only they know whats going on there... I am sure, that there are multivoters for mymodel and for perfect police enfrocer. This is that we cant control... Anyways I am ready to be second. I have I plan B if I lose and receive winners model (rubbing my hands) Thats A joke. Crazy 1993 is a genious LDD creator . Hummer is too high for boss to crawl on it:). But It has many panels. So I will be glad to receive it. Edited January 15, 2013 by rm8 Quote
Lauris Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 Although my favourite was MarkusOSX entry, I just voted for your entry as it might actually win :) Ok, let's believe it will win and it will - it is indeed very good entry and congratulations to all finalists from EB. Quote
hrontos Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 (edited) There will be no police cruiser, because somebody is cheating.Boss gained over 250 votes in one day .That is legally imposibble... I wouldn't be so sceptic. When I published the LDD to POV-Ray Converter on EB digital forum, the website had about 16-20 visitors per day. After it was published on EB frontpage, there were more than 1000 visitors in 4 hours. And EB frontpage news are copied also by other websites, so the traffic can be even higher. And if rm88 made similar post on some local forum, it can be similar traffic, but may be more oriented on the Boss. I actually find the comment made by crazy_1993 on the official website about cheating quite offending. It looks like he does not know the power of a community. Edited January 15, 2013 by hrontos Quote
sama Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 Its really close. The BOSS caught up to the Enforcer pretty quickly. I think the BOSS might just win (I hope so)! Quote
jorgeopesi Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 I hope this crazy competition finish soon, mechanisms, which are what I really like, not given to much discussion or work or not, when we get into the bodywork this is what happens... Of course it will be a great joy for the winner but I will continue to remind the Sariel´s autovalve, the sequential gearbox of Sheepo or all the great work of Nico and how he teaches us about technic. Quote
Gene Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 We cannot under estimate the power of social media and the functions of a community or group. I believe rm88 does alot of homework to promote his creation. Research->Build->Explain->Compare->Photoshoot->Videoshoot->Marketing. What else can we ask for from rm88 creation until the product is release for forum members to build, moc and start all sort of comments? Quote
jorgeopesi Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 Of course I do not underestimate the work done in fact I voted it. A good MOC does not need the support of a community in a limited time to be, it is forever and will continue to admire, win or lose a contest, I only bothered by fraud and that the promotion is so important in this too. If I like more a MOC of another community I would vote even competed one of mine, these group thoughts unnerve me. Quote
CoolerTD Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 It looks like he does not know the power of a community. Russian community :)) Many russian fans don`t know english and do not participate in eurobrick`s discussions and do not follow the news on lego.com. The main sources of information in russian speaking lego community are doublebrick.ru and phantoms.su. So the information was published there. And the people who wants to take part in voting chose by themselves whose creation to support. It is not an art to make it look great with an unlimited part count. It has more than 2500 parts and that makes roughly $100 difference comparing to original 9398. I have some doubts, that it will stay as it is. That would be largest technic set ever. Price may reach almost the price of the new mindstorms set. I am fully agree with this post, so these works are in different categories, and I hope that there will be 2 winners, both BOSS and enforcer. Good luck, rm8 Quote
