(...) To me, this crane reminds me very much of the 8431 crane only with studless pieces and stuff. The main thing stopping me from getting one is the wheels (which are useless to me) (20 years ago, 6-Jan-05, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Not. This is the one for the release. (...) Most of the boxes in the early dealers catalogs are just mockups anyway. (...) This IMO proves my point. The pics I posted (with the kostky.org logo) are the pics of the real thing which will be in (...) (20 years ago, 6-Jan-05, to lugnet.technic)

(...) First one is a prototype. The one on the following photo is the Real McCrane ;-) (...) I cant's see anything like that? The boom is made of 3 large elements, 12 studs long, 3 bricks tall, 4 studs wide. Two of such elements hold the outriggers. (...) (20 years ago, 5-Jan-05, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Yes it looks like (but I can't quite see how) it has a 3-section boom, which may be what the more powerful RC motor is being used for. (...) Well the 2 on this page (URL) both seem to indicate set number 7249, so I'm not sure whats going on (...) (20 years ago, 5-Jan-05, to lugnet.technic)
