Hi all,
I’ve got a question for all TECHNIC enthusiasts out there... six questions,
really. What types of TECHNIC vehicles would you like to see?
I’ve created six polls on LUGNET, each with 3 or 4 choices for a given price
range. Now’s a good time to let LEGO hear your voice - please let us know
which type of vehicle you’d prefer in a given price range.

Hi Kelly,
As a regular buyer of Lego (Technic is my favourite) the three things I consider
when looking at a new set (not in any order):
1. Functionality. What does this
model do?
2. Useful pieces/colors. What else could I make?
3. Design. Does it look interesting to build?
Balanced against all these is what price I pay, though this picks my buying
priority, not the choice of sets. I bought 2 Bulldozers within the first week
of release.
It seems a large portion of the poll choices are recient technic sets or close
derivities. Eg: 8275, 8421, 8436, 8282. Unless there are strong reasons
(#1,#2,#3) I would be unlikely to buy, say another type of bulldozer :)
So rather than dwell on the negatives, here are some of the vehicles I’d like to
see...
Elevating Scraper
Wheeled Material Handler
Grader
Skid Steer Loader (larger than 8418)
Other vehicle Ideas:
Helicopter with tilting blades
Monster Truck
Delivery van/ute chassis (fwd/gearbox/suspension)
Non vehicle ideas:
GBC modules
Detailed large scale V8 engine (try a rotary for a challange!)

Thank you,

Thank you for wanting to know :)
Ha!, you probably didn’t want to know all of the above
I guess that’s what happens when a Rabid Fan of Lego(RFL) is
asked for an opinion :)
Chris.
