double axle pins? :look:

It is this 6558.gif <--- with the last 1L of the pin with an axle on it 43093.gif in Dark Bluish Gray... Going to be a very useful part...

The nice thing is that these will also hold liftarms together tighter than just running a 3L axle with stop through them...

On what set do you see those,I can't spot them......

What sucks is that I gave my wife a TON of blue parts when she started up her bricklink store.. Including twelve 19L blue flex axles....

Time to buy some back then. :tongue:

Its not a common 1h model, released on january, its the march model.

Previous march model was 9397, 8070, 42000. With 1300 parts, the airplane is in the standard.

It's indeed the March model....but this is still considered 1H.

I like the looks of the plane but the X/Z-dimensions are too big for my shelfes, therefore I cannot put it anywhere :/

BTW: I see a lot of work for dokludi ;)

It's a plane, hang it from the ceiling!

Oh how I wish that part existed in sets at the moment ... so many times I've wanted something like this with a 1L axle into a 2L pin

The plane looks awesome! It looks like it may have working ailerons and elevators, and I'd be tickled if it had a working rudder too. :thumbup:

The 3 in 1 set is much better than I anticipated. It looks really good, and the design makes me wonder if Grohl had anything to do with it.

The rest of the sets don't really interest me. The steering on the snowmobile looks like it would work terribly.

I'm liking all the blue and white we are seeing in this year's sets. I love all the new parts too!

It seems to me the plane has four functions:

1. retract gears

2. open door at back

3. open cabin

4. spin propellers

Or at least this is what I see on the right side of the box.

If that's all then it's no match for 8855 :sceptic:

I'm not happy with it, but I'm not surprised. I guess an opening door gives more playability to kids than adjustable wings. Realistic functions remains a task for those who are willing to spend time modding the set.

I am quite sure it will have movable wing flaps.

If you look closely you can see the black knob gears on the wings, which appear to control the adjustable wings; they connect to the axles with the 3x11 panels attached to them. You can see them pretty clear above the "E" in the Technic logo across the top.

The plane definitely looks awesome but quite honestly I have absolutely nowhere to put it, given its dimensions. Also: the blue dump truck in the Construction Crew set actually looks really good.

I'm interested in 20 and 21 for the parts, and will prolly buy them just for those if they are not overpriced too much.

23 looks very old-skool, wich i like, but apart from the colors they likely can be constructed from my current inventory, so i'll limit myself to downloading the instructions.

As far as 25 is concerned; I don't want white panels, but beams etc. When i build mocs i find very little use for panels.

But i'll decide when the complete parts list is revealed.

The pull-backs aren't technic models imo, and far overpriced. I got the blue one from this year for the parts,and won't be spending more money on them unless again, they make a good parts pack.

looks like my wallet will feel less lego-addiction induced pain in 2014 :-)

The cargo plane is definitely a must, along with the dump truck AND the snow-mobile for the new suspension/knuckle parts a la 8448, but smaller.
