It looks even better than it did on paper and the inclusion of the builing
instructions for the second model is an answer to many AFOL complaints in the
past couple of years. I hope the same is true for the remaining models.

I do believe that the 8258 crane truck will have it's b-model instructions soley
on the internet (not included in the set). Legos reasoning is that it helps save
the environment by uing less paper (which if i'm totally honest is a load of BS
whoever says it). Personally I don't mind not having the instructions for the
B-model included just as long as it translates to lowering the cost of the model
or raising the complexity/peice-count without raising the cost of the model
(which is probably more in line with Lego's real reasoning behind it, cost).

(...) The excuse about the environment is not a very solid one. Maybe LEGO uses less paper and ink, but many people still like to have a physical copy of the document and printing a single set on an inkjet printer is more environmentally unfriendly (...)
