Hmm. I'm not happy about the arrival of Technic CRAPPs that this seems to show.
Especially since there seem to be at least three different types, plus isomers.
And it's red. Gack.
But on the other hand there do seem to be some interesting possibilities - I'm

nice. Better than this years big Technic wheels, which look wrong outside of
a future setting.

I'm not sure I'll buy more than one right now - and I'm definitely in favour
of more models as complex as the space shuttle.
