| In this post (URL) you can find the mpd file describing the #8842 Technic set of the 80s. I decide to remake the model after I read the post in The NXT Step: (URL) which explains some methods to unstuck parts. In a commentary the #8842 is mentioned (...)

The normal bricks only go one stud deep (at some places less), what's inside is basically a pure (...) (17 years ago, 12-Feb-08, to lugnet.town, lugnet.technic, FTX)
