None of the 2004 technic set seem all that appealing to me... That plane with bionicle propellors is horrible.

8421 is the first technic set I got since 2003 and I have every big technic set released from 1977 until that year. I had previously sworn to stop buying new sets since the new grays, but 8421 gave me reason enough to break that oath.

I too hate the new grays, but I think 8421 is a really sweet set. I got to see someone playing with the motorized parts at Brickfest, and I think that the crane is very well built. Since the new grays came out, I’ve thought that they make the minifig scale sets look bad, but it doesn’t matter nearly as much with the Technic sets.
