Hey all...

Here's a little set I made a couple of weeks ago. It's based on some of the
core elements of the 6474, but it clocks in at about 180 pieces (almost 4
times the 6474's count).

61001 - Heavy Scooper
http://www.pause.com/toys/lego/61001.jpg

The model features a much more solid base than the 6474, with a number of
tiles, as well as headlights and taillights. The cab features twin 2x4x2
windscreens, opening doors, opening roof, steering wheel and a control panel
behind the operator plus twin control sticks. A few other fun details were
thrown in to give it that little extra something.

I was going to sell a few of these, but then I realized that between buying
the necessary pieces and delivering the set with color building
instructions, I'd have to charge way more than anybody would most likely be
willing to spend.

Anyway, hope you like it...comments welcome.

Hey Lou, I bought four of the Wheeled Front Shovel sets. I added the tracks
from one of the Adventurers sets to mine. I must say that of the recent Town
Jr. sets, this one was the most attractively packaged and interesting
looking in the whole aisle! In fact, this set and the three copies of it are
the only LEGO I've bought in a store since my discharge from the Navy over a
year ago. LEGO has stumbled into a minefield with all those poorly-designed
sets, even my mother can see the difference (she should know, she bought me
my first LEGO set back in 1978). -Harvey
