What Technic sets did you get this year ?

[Freekysch]

So, we are so close to the end of this year and i was wondering what were your Lego Technic purchases ? For me, this was a very good year i must say, i got the 42006 Excavator, 42000 Formula 1 car, 42007 Dirt Bike and the Quad from last year, and not last the 8258 crane Truck and the 8285 Tow Truck.

What were the sets that you bought this year and were you satisfied by your purchases ?

[Balrog]

This year was really really good for me. I mostly purchased Technic sets this year (or got them), so I will leave out "normal" Lego sets.

Here is what I purchased/got:

8458

8466

9393

9394

9395

9396

42009

The first two, I got used through eBay. The rest were regular purchases. Mostly through Amazon. All in all, I was pretty satisfied. There were only minor things to complain, like the bad weight distribution on 9393.

In addition to that I got parts through BL, worth approximately 200€. Mostly Technic parts to supply the collection for building a series of MOCs, like Crowkillers Supercars among others.

8832 Roadster

8838 Shock Cycle

8048 Buggy

9393 Tractor

9395 Pick Up

42005

42006

42007

42010.

and i started the year (01/01/13) with the building of a 8070

[Wiseman_2]

I feel like I've been neglecting Lego a little this year, my list feels rather short

The only sets I bought myself this year are 9396 (back at the start of the year) and 42009 in August; I also got 42006 as a gift in May.

I am but a humble student with a low budget for sets however and so I do have my reasons

All are pretty good models, but 42009 definitely stands out for me; it's huge and was very satisfying to build.

42000

42008

....waiting for 42025

[OzBen]

I have managed to buy and build most of this years technic sets (and a few other large system sets)

For technic...

42000 - Grand Prix Racer

42002 - Hovercraft

42004 - Mini Backhoe

42005 - Monster Truck

42006 - Excavator

42007 - Moto Cross Bike (x2 for the A & B model)

42008 - Service Truck

42009 - Mobile Crane Mk 2

41999 -The Boss

I also managed to get my hands on a few sets that I have been keeping an eye out for

8275 - Bulldozer

8262 - Quad Bike

8435 - 4WD

8053 - Mobile Crane

8458 - Silver Champion (x2, I wanted one for parts)

8448 - Super Street Sensation

8265 - Front Loader

8294 - Excavator

8439 - Front End Loader

8455 - Back Hoe Loader (received and built yesterday!!)

and a couple of Ferrari sets to finish off my collection

7556 - Shell Ferrari F1 (My first Model Team set)

8156 - FXX

8652 - Enzo

looking back over the list I'm surprised how many sets I have acquired over the last 12 months.....

Since I only have a couple of "out of production" sets still on my wanted list I think 2014 will be a year of less sets and more MOC's for me, well that's the plan anyway....

I haven't bought any of the new sets, and it's been a long long time since I last bought a set (mainly just been buying parts off of Bricklink).

However, the few I purchased earlier this year were

8455

8109

8420

8297

9395

[Sebeus I]

8480 Space Shuttle Fiber Optics I bought it second hands but it's as good as new.

And a couple of smaller sets.

[Mikuri]

Started a week or so ago to buy new stuff.

- 9398 Crawler

- 8110 Unimog

- 42006 Excavator

- 9392 Quad Bike

Will see after the new year for some other models :)!

[Gee]

Man, my Technic buying pales in comparison to some of you guys! I've managed to get the following:

9391 - Tracked Crane

42010 - (Pull Back) Off-Road Racer (literally just been delivered)

42005 - Monster Truck (awaiting delivery).

[LegoGBC]

I got the Unimog (8110)

[zux]

8197, 9398, 8110, 8070, 8475, 41999, 42000, 42006, 8437, 8081, 8880, 8858, 8284, 8455, 8462, 8428, 8435 + few other Racers or non-Technic. That was a good year for the start!

[skppo]

I only got the 8070 because it was cheap (well, kinda) and I'm not going to even keep it

I'm really looking forward to next year though. I think I'll pick up at least two of those snowmobiles for parts.

Oh wait I guess I also bought the 8868 and 8880 this year, I think. I don't even remember. Years are too long.
