I agree, but my budget (and wife) are glad that the big sets don't come very
often.  Lego 8448 looks great.  I have added it to my wish list.  I will

someone said that this set has some pneumatics.  How are they used?

(...) They're not really pneumetics. They're slow release springs, kind of like on a screen door. You can use one to do the pop-up roop of the convertible version or use both to do the gull wing doors version. (25 years ago, 30-Mar-01, to lugnet.technic)
