(...) Not entirely a bad thing but I've been looking in to alot of harvesters for forest use lately and I guess this one is supposed to be some sort of hartvester/lumber crane. (...) Also very clever use of the bent beams to secure things. My (...) (24 years ago, 26-Apr-01, to lugnet.technic)

Don't have any pictures but this is good news! I thought it would be more expensive. *sigh* Guess I have to convince my g/f once again that this is a relly rare set that is special in so many ways that I want to buy it... But I'll wat for the model (...) (24 years ago, 26-Apr-01, to lugnet.technic)

I've found two sites with photos of the 8466 4x4 but when I tried to print them up they weren't that good :-( I'm just guessing these photos were posted in 640x480 but I want to get a better look at the details.

(...) I just built the 8446 Monster Crane Truck and I say we just have to learn to use these new parts! I'm truly amazed... Must be one of the best Technic set's from 1999. To bad it looks like something out of a bad Mars movie though... I think (...) (24 years ago, 26-Apr-01, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Perhaps a more manageable idea (less pieces per bag) would be to organise by colour so: black - 8880, 8860, 8868, 8412 red - 851, 853, 8440, 8837, 8851, 8865 yellow - 850, 852, 856, 8459, 8460, 8828, 8862, 8853 Put me down for one of each - no (...)

If you decide to make this thread any longer, please change the group... (...) K'nex and LEGO are meant for different types of building, IMO, so one does not exclude the other. (...) Hah! I've used clone bricks if I can't tell the difference at a (...) (24 years ago, 25-Apr-01, to lugnet.technic)
