I too miss some of the great Technic sets from Lego history (my first was 856). I agree with what you said though. There are a few sets I wanted that I have missed over the years, but really wanted (8459, 8856, 8862). I think there are a lot of (...) (21 years ago, 7-Jun-03, to lugnet.technic)

I just realized that TLG no longer makes the 8466 and 8465 Technic sets. These were some of my current favorites, and I don't have the 8465!
