I was browsing trains and caught this (URL) from Jeramy Spurgeon with a link to a LEGO site in Hungary. So, I decided to do a little digging around and found a new crane, the 8288. Here's a pic of it: (URL) I also found a better pic of the 8674 1:8 (...) (19 years ago, 6-Feb-06, to lugnet.technic, FTX)

(...) I saw the crane and the other models in a catalogue at a Lego show on the Sunday before last. It's not a brilliant picture but it looks like it has lots of track links, so I'll be buying multiple copies :-). The new range looks great, I'm (...) (19 years ago, 6-Feb-06, to lugnet.technic, FTX)

(...) I saw links to that site a few days ago on the eurobricks forum, but I wasn't sure what Lugnet's leaks policy is these days ... ??? I know it used to be a pretty sensitive issue ... *remembers a bit of a furore surrounding leaked pics from (...) (19 years ago, 6-Feb-06, to lugnet.technic, FTX)

(...) Hard to tell, but I'm hoping it also has multiple weight bricks. That will offset the almost total lack of studs... ROSCO (19 years ago, 6-Feb-06, to lugnet.technic, FTX)

(...) WOW! Those are the best pics I've seen yet of the 8285! I clicked up on the folder and saw pics of the new Ferrari too. And thank goodness it DOES have a suspension system (small yellow shocks like the Silver Champ)! Adr. (19 years ago, 6-Feb-06, to lugnet.technic, FTX)

(...) Yes it is, it comes with the 8287 (URL) On the cover of the box shown is a pictures of included parts. See what look like red 2xN plates with grey around them, that's the battery box. Adr. (19 years ago, 6-Feb-06, to lugnet.technic, FTX)

(...) Aha ... thanks guys! Definitely a V10 ... yet more pistons to gather dust then ... :o Looks like there's quite a lot of change in the chassis too then - thinking about it, they've cut down on the old style technic beams and gone as much as (...)

(...) Agreed. Shame the crane didn't get a clearer pic - hopefully someone has one. I'm less keen on the fire truck after seeing that pic now. Still want the telehandler, tow truck and crane though ... Chris. (19 years ago, 7-Feb-06, to lugnet.technic, FTX)

(...) If it has weight bricks and no studs, how are they going to be attached? Jam it on those liftarms, stud sideways? :-) (Yes, I would do it that way.) Thank you you guys for these great pics! Now my two cents and speculations after I glean (...) (19 years ago, 7-Feb-06, to lugnet.technic, FTX)

(...) I think it has 2 weight bricks as well. Unlike some of the other models I was reluctant to tip it over and get pics from all sides. (the towtruck... I went crazy on that one. I could not spot any studded bricks in that model at all, but I may (...) (19 years ago, 12-Feb-06, to lugnet.technic, FTX)

(...) There's a couple of downsides to multiple parts sheaves - first, it means at least twice as much string, and that can mean either larger spools or thinner string, which is much harder for small fingers to handle; and second, it's harder to (...)

From what I've seen in the pics, the tow truck looks like it has only 1 pneumatic piston. That doesn't look very impressive. (19 years ago, 16-Feb-06, to lugnet.technic, FTX)

(...) The fact that it only has one piston is not impressive but the truck itself is very impressive. However, if that one piston can lift a lego truck of the same scale then it is a good design. It is interesting that although TLC typically models (...) (19 years ago, 16-Feb-06, to lugnet.technic, FTX)

(...) I would agree with leaving the tow truck together - and the dust should be easier to wipe off the studless beams! Looking at at the tractor set, my first impressions of it is that it has a very modern look. My first contact with Technic was (...) (19 years ago, 16-Feb-06, to lugnet.technic, FTX)

(...) Ahhhhhhh, there's always room for modifications, right? Take the 8421 technic crane for example.. came with 2 cylinders, however, with a little thinkin and adjusting pieces, it now has 4... add an air tank to it.. now has excellant lifting (...)
