Oh, wow!!  If that set is even half as good as it looks in the picture, that
will be one set everyone will be scrambling to pick up!!

Mind you, I do hope they don't expect to put a $390 price tag on it and
expect people to pay that much for it!!  Mind you, I'm in Australia, I
suppose that could be half as expensive if you're in the USA or wherever.

Cheers ...

See the dog? Is it MIBO?

If we can really build that dog out of the box, then RIS 2.0 might as well

rotation sensor, the shock absorbers, and all those turn tables!

(By the way, I heard that the new yellow shock absorbers included in 8458
are stiffer than the old ones. I'd like to have a bunch of these new shock
absorbers but I am not going to spend over $160 for a pair. :-) Anybody
likes to part a set of 8458 with me?)

Cheers,

I don't think so - I seem to remember seeing this somewhere before, built with a humble RCX 1.0/5. Actually, if you look closely, you'll see it contains 2 RCXs, one below the other on an angle. Not much chance of TLC including 2 with the set.... (...) (24 years ago, 28-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.technic)
