I was afraid it was too good to be true. Sure would have been cool to have
a new set like this, or at least a detail package to convert the SC into
this F1 car (ANYBODY AT TLC HEARING THIS????). Personally I find this
version of the SC to be much more appealing than the stock version. Maybe I
will just have to make some body panels, wings and decals to convert my SC
as Lego seems not to be interested in supporting the folks that prefer
Technic over Bionicle.
Is it just me or is TLC phasing out Technic altogether (keep in mind I do
not consider Bionicle to be part of the Technic line, at best the larger
sets are good parts kits for true Technic projects)? All I hear about
anymore is this set and that set being discontinued, but not a single thing
that is new. Not even a Legend. Sure hope I am wrong.
Hey TLC, bring back the greats!!!! 8868 Airtech Claw Rig, 8880 Super Car,
8460 Crane Truck, 8480 Space Shuttle, 8862 Backhoe/Grader. These sets are
what TRUE Technic is all about.
Sorry for the minor rant. :)
