Thanks for the info!  Did you see any number molded into the part, BTW?

It's really strange that they introduce a new part which is so close to
the already existing part.

But of course, it's always nice to see new Technic parts.  I recently
purchased the 8444 helicopter, hoping to find some new parts, but the
only new ones (to me) where the 20 teeth bevel gear and the odd wings.

I was hoping to find the angle connector #4 (135°) and the new
crossblock-like part which has one more hole.  I think maybe both these
parts are in 8445 and 8446, but I'm trying to stay away from those sets,
as I really don't need any more of those large Technic wheels.

(...) Not that I can see. (...) My thoughts exactly. But given that Technic has virtually moved away from 'traditional' beams, I reckon we'll see other variants in the future. I'd like to see long straight ones :-) Huw (27 years ago, 24-Sep-99, to lugnet.technic)
