mifody Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 (edited) Hi, everybody! I bring to your attention the new work under the name Monster Truck - Bigfoot VS Crawler. In this work, apparently from the name two models are presented at once. At first we will consider model under the name Bigfoot. It is model alteration from a set of 6867 Loki's Cosmic Cube Escape: After reorganization such Bigfoot turned out here: General views of model: Functional features: - the door of a body opens as standard doors - cabin doors open But to get a minifig, it is necessary to remove a roof all the same: Cabin furniture quite simple - a wheel, the check point lever, a seat sofa: The driver of this car in comparison with the model: Now we pass to the second model - Crawler. I bore idea of this car long, looked through other works and at last decided to construct! On mine the model turned out successful! In order that to construct it it was necessary to sort and start up on a detail one of sets the technician of 9392 Quad Bike. General views: Functional features of model: - leaning-back back door - opening doors of a cabin One of the main functional features of model is the working suspender! Suspender structure the quite simple: Suspender work: - the car in an initial condition - use of both suspender - only forward suspender - only back suspender To get a minifig too it is necessary to remove a roof: Cabin equipment in this model is richer, than at Bigfoot! On by wheel and the check point lever, you can see the dashboard and the TV! I think when you go on such car it is possible not to look at the road! The driver in comparison with a car: Now comparative photo of both models: Further I suggest to compare data of model with the standard Lego models! 60018 Cement Mixer - Bigfoot: - Crawler 60017 Flatbed Truck - Bigfoot: In principle, if to try, it is possible to find room easily bigfoot on the wrecker! Only the wrecker hardly will be able to move with it! - Crawler Hardly, but nevertheless it is possible to find room and crawler on the wrecker! Only after that the wrecker will be sent to a dump! Now we will take pair of cars from sets of 60017 Flatbed Truck and 4441 Police Dog Van! - Bigfoot: - Crawler And now we will compare our giants to my MOCs! - patrol car - Bigfoot: - Crawler But we will take something on - more seriously! For example, SWAT truck! - Bigfoot: - Crawler Result: - Bigfoot is good on many sites on off road terrain, but in the city it far won't leave! - Crawler - perfectly feels both on off road terrain, and in the city! I wait for your comments and... excuse me for my bad English! Edited February 17, 2013 by mifody Quote
Bregir Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 Looks nice both of them! :) Crawler looks like it could go over anything, while Bigfoot looks like it could go THROUGH everything... ;) Quote
LEGO Guy Bri Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 Cool monster trucks Mifody! How does the driver get in the Crawler? It looks like he'd need to climb on Big Foot first I like the mods to 6867, the Crawler really stands out Quote
mifody Posted March 5, 2013 Author Posted March 5, 2013 Looks nice both of them! :) Very cool! Thank you for your comments! Quote
Bering Posted June 30, 2014 Posted June 30, 2014 I like the Bigfoot very much, nice build! Can you please give me the part number of the red pin which is attached to the shock? And the grey part in the chassis, is that a worm gear? Thanks a lot in advance! Quote

Bering Posted July 7, 2014 Posted July 7, 2014 Just one other question. Does anybody know how the 90 degrees angle is made which i showed by the arrow? I know the use of brackets in Lego but this one has no gap between the bricks. Thanks a lot. Quote
