  Re: MOC by a German: Mercedes-Benz 300 SL
 
Looks cool, but I wouldn't pay DM 500 for it.... (some $220,-) Duq "Jean-Marc Détraz" <moratel@auracomNOSPAM.com> wrote in message news:GCKpAo.87G@lugnet.com... (...) (23 years ago, 1-May-01, to lugnet.modelteam)
 
  MOC by a German: Mercedes-Benz 300 SL
 
Hello, Look at this beautiful MB 300 SL (URL) It's an eBay-link but that is where I found the Pic. Enjoy and Leave a comment. IMO it is a fantastic model and very unusual. Jean-Marc (23 years ago, 29-Apr-01, to lugnet.modelteam)
 
  Re: Truck MOCs by an anonymous german LEGO fan (model team scale)
 
Oooooh, NIIIICE trucks! Those pics will give me some great ideas for the extra 5591s and 5571s I have!

  Re: 5571 wheels vs. 5563 wheels?
 
(...) I'm working on a mobile crane. Its not really a Model Team project, its more of a Technic MindStorms thing. I'm trying to reproduce as much of the mechanics of a mobile crane I can, rather then model any particular crane. As for the wheels, (...) (23 years ago, 19-Apr-01, to lugnet.modelteam)

  Re: 5571 wheels vs. 5563 wheels?
 
(...) Thanks, now I know I can get the wheels to finish my crane. I was going to try and use the Barcode truck wheels at the front, but they just didn't look right being smaller then the others. Derek (23 years ago, 18-Apr-01, to lugnet.modelteam)
 
  Re: 5571 wheels vs. 5563 wheels?
 
(...) The wheels in 5571 and 5563 are identical indeed. :) Bryan (23 years ago, 17-Apr-01, to lugnet.modelteam)
 
  5571 wheels vs. 5563 wheels?
 
I was wondering if the 5563 wheels and tires are the same as the 5571 wheels and tires. I looked back through past messages, but no-one had done an absolute comparison. I need to be absolutely sure they are the same before I by any 5563s. I made the (...) (23 years ago, 17-Apr-01, to lugnet.modelteam)

(...) Babelfish does a half-reasonable job at translation on this one - babelfish.altavista.com use the website translation, it dynamically translates the whole site. ROSCO (23 years ago, 8-Apr-01, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.modelteam)

(...) (URL)Of course, it looks cheap, the colors stink, there isn't the level of detail (...) IMHO all clone brands are S&*^! for the reasons you have just stated and many more! I wouldn't taint my Lego with them. Steve Lane (23 years ago, 8-Apr-01, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.modelteam)
 
  Re: Ideas for new sets?
 
(...) Well, The <set:8422> wheels are aprox. 83mm in diameter (with the tires), so what I would want is more like 120+mm. - David (24 years ago, 7-Apr-01, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.modelteam)

  Re: Ideas for new sets? (re: motorcycles)
 
(...) [...] (...) It looks more like <set:8422> than 8417. On the other hand, it has "real-working rear suspension", but no gears, chains, engines, etc. -- mechanisms that make the Technic 8417 and 8422 so enjoyable. In terms of functionality, this (...)

  Re: Ideas for new sets? (re: motorcycles)
 
(...) That set doesn't look too different from the old Mag Wheel Master (URL) a model team motorcycle would be something Lego hasn't done before. (24 years ago, 6-Apr-01, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.modelteam)
 
  Re: Ideas for new sets? (re: motorcycles)
 
(...) I just found a new mega blok set that is along the lines of what I wish LEGO would make. (URL) course, it looks cheap, the colors stink, there isn't the level of detail I would expect from a Model Team set or want in a Technic set, but its a (...)

  Re: Ideas for new sets?
 
YES!!! Proper motorbike wheels! Spoked, if possible, and 80+mm diameter.... I definitely second the wish for Model Team motorbikes. See (URL) (24 years ago, 30-Mar-01, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.modelteam)
 
  Re: Ideas for new sets?
 
(...) A Model Team race bike! Now that's a great idea! I think an UCS bike set with a considerable number of pieces would be even better. LEGO would probably need to create a new wheel for it - the wheels on the <set:8422> are not big enough for (...) (24 years ago, 30-Mar-01, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.modelteam)
 
  Re: Model Team Decline
 
(...) How come it has it's own newsgroup then? (...) The solutions obvious, this is lego we're discussing so just build them yourself and then upload the pics onto Lugnet. (...) Indeed they are.
