I'd put a vote in for the 8868 turntable jucntion as the most complex Lego
model section I've run into.  Even the second or third time around I need
to fix mistakes in it's construction.

I think alot of the complexity lied in just trying to follow their
little colored dots though.  If you were to build this model using
4 (at least) different colors of pneumatic tubing, the construction
would be much much easier (IMHO).

Like you I will get one when they are available, if only to be chassis
complete.

Someone else mentioned the wheels look like those on the tow truck.  I
think they're closer to the Turbo Command car.

The 8462 Tow Truck and the 8428 Turbo Command (and the 8417 Mag
Wheel Master) all use the same wheels.  The wheels and tires on
the 8448 are brand new, and larger than those on the affore-
mentioned models.
