After buying and building about 15 technic kits I'm starting to run out of
kits I don't have. (Yes, I know there are a bunch of new ones coming or
already here, but $$$ is becoming an obstacle.) So I started building the
alternative models with parts that I had without necessarily taking apart the
main model. I've had pretty good success (I now only have about 1/2 of my
models still together). So I'm thinking of building 8868 from the instruction
scans. Is this feasible? I may have to buy some pneumatic parts (I have the
tow truck). Has anyone done this before? Any pitfalls I should avoid?
Thanks...
