Thank you Lego!  The more I see of these sets the easier it will be not to
buy any of them.

Bionicle parts have no business in true Technic sets.  They are different
themes and should be kept that way!  Cutting corners by using those parts in
sets like this is more proof that the mistakes will be coming at an
exponential rate from this point forward.

I really wonder how long it will actually take for Lego to become as bad as
MB?  It is clear to me that you are trying pretty hard.

Getting more disappointed by the minute.  :(

There are some better pictures of the 4 new Technic sets:

Now that I have seen them closer...nothing special in that mini-technic
set...the airplane is nice and actually the Bionicle blades look • good...the 4WD
is nice but there isn't anything that atracts me to it (the hook is kind • of
small...the Bionicle hook would be better served in this set)...now...that
beautiful red truck...reminds me of a Mercedes Actros...those yellow • pneumatic
tubes don't work too well with the red truck and the Bionicle hook...fine • I'll
take it easy...the problem with it: too small...Lego could have used the • hook
from the Pneumatic Crane Truck :D

(...) I look at it this way: It's still LEGO, right? Sure, the model in the box may have an element the you don't like but nothing forces you to build the model the way it is pictured. Some of the colors may be different but all the bricks that you (...) (21 years ago, 5-Feb-04, to lugnet.dear-lego)
