  Snap rivet toy?
 
Hi folks, Something has been driving me nuts for the last few weeks and all the searching on the Internet and asking on rtlToronto has yieled nothing. The other day I read about Ankersteines (very cool!) and it got me thinking about this toy I once (...) (23 years ago, 5-Jan-03, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: TECHNIC IS NOT DEAD!!!
 
I too, am very interested in making some interesting project with those gears. I am wondering if they will mesh with gears already produced or only work with the mechanism included with that set. Now to dream up something good to build with (...) (23 years ago, 5-Jan-03, to lugnet.general, lugnet.technic)

(...) From what I saw, the commercials didn't amount to much. (my younger sister thought they were rather lame. Well of course, aren't commercials supposed to be lame? They all are these days! :) And she's within the target audience, and does build (...) (23 years ago, 5-Jan-03, to lugnet.general)

(...) O.K. I'm willing to bend on the lime green thing. At least that they are out there and in use. It's hard to argue with eyewitness sightings. But it doesn't mean I have to like it. :) (...) Wow.

(...) Sorry, I didn't mean to give the wrong impression. I'm quite fond of the 'real' crash trucks. I think they are a wonderful blend of function vs. form. They are superbly rugged looking... something the LEGO model lacks woefully. It wasn't the (...) (23 years ago, 5-Jan-03, to lugnet.general, lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: TECHNIC IS NOT DEAD!!!
 
Its worth taking a close look at some of the other items on marz. 4481 (a Star Wars set) seems to have some interesting looking ring gears.

  Re: TECHNIC IS NOT DEAD!!!
 
As one who has spent alot of time in recent days complaining about the lack of new sets, I am thrilled with these new sets. I love the backhoe and I think the fire truck looks great too. Count me in to preorder these and get them as soon as Lego has (...) (23 years ago, 5-Jan-03, to lugnet.general, lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: TECHNIC IS NOT DEAD!!!
 
Yeah!! :) I think, despite the odd looks of some of the models, the message is clear - Technic as a name may have fallen by the wayside, at least in TLC's plans, but the idea behind the parts is still alive and well - "build working models".
