<<snip>> (...) I think the boat is part of the new creator line where you buy a box of LEGO and get suggestions for several models, one box focus on animals <set:4101> while others go towards robots, mecha, fishes etc.. That line is due in April. (...) (22 years ago, 5-Feb-03, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.modelteam)

(...) Yeah, as I thought earlier. I'm just happy I didn't go crazy standing there in the store aisle when I discoveed the new sets. :) The fourth series of adventurers sets definitely hits the mark here! (...) And the main reason I went to the store (...)

After seeing my Jan-Feb SAH Catalog and these three posts (and wiping the drool off my keyboard): (URL) I can say is... ...wait for it... WOW! COOL! SWEET! SUPERB! AWESOME! TERRIFIC! GREAT! YEAH!

(...) The chinook gets around this by having the rotors on different levels - the rear one is sufficiently high to ensure it can't hit the front. (...) Yes, enough power to lift a LEGO helicopter would definitely be a challenge 8?) ROSCO (22 years ago, 5-Feb-03, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Ross - The challenge I'd run into would be coordinating the blades so they don't chop each other to pieces. Or I'd have to space them out quite a bit - the rotor I used in my last try had a radius of about 16L. Another problem I'd face is (...) (22 years ago, 5-Feb-03, to lugnet.technic)

(...) I don't mind the helo and boat being a little plane-looking. And I am also sure they are intended to compete with MegaBloks. But I don't buy MB and have been waiting for this stuff from Lego for about three years now! MB is too laden with 2x4 (...) (22 years ago, 5-Feb-03, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.modelteam)

(...) Just browsed your site fully and wow cool! A suggestion for your helicopter - if you can build a single rotor with enough lift, why not just build 2 and connect them, like the chinook (URL) way the extra weight is offset by the extra lift 8?) (...) (22 years ago, 5-Feb-03, to lugnet.technic)

(...) All the spacecraft are brilliant - I particularly like the Arianne 5 and the shuttle. The truck is amazing, though I think the helicopter and boat are a little too plain. They're clearly intended to compete with the MegaBloks models of this (...) (22 years ago, 4-Feb-03, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.modelteam)

As it is, I suspect there'll be several delays and serious reviews before they finally decide to release it. Even (...) (22 years ago, 4-Feb-03, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.modelteam)
