    I need technic!!!!!!!!!!! —Allan Portillo
   I get the funny feeling that the technic line is going down the pan. Technic is my favorite line that lego has produced. Is there any way we can restore the technic line to it's former glory. I do hope that lego are working on some large technic (...) (22 years ago, 2-Aug-02, to lugnet.technic)
   
        Re: I need technic!!!!!!!!!!! —Steven Lane
     (...) First off, I really like the subject line. I think we all need Technic. I admit it, I am a technic user. I don't think things are quite as bad as people think. There was that re-release of the pneumatic crane and a special offer on that large (...) (22 years ago, 2-Aug-02, to lugnet.technic)
    
         Re: I need technic!!!!!!!!!!! —Gregory Muri
     Does anyone have actual details of the re-release of the pneumatic crane? So far all I have seen is a picture. Have I missed the announcement?

        Re: I need technic!!!!!!!!!!! —John Barnes
     I'm not sure your assessment is accurate. I would concede that the "Technic" word may be dropped from TLC's vocabulary, but I see no evidence that there is much slackening in the pace to create new sets and parts. I think what is happening is that (...) (22 years ago, 2-Aug-02, to lugnet.technic)
    
         Re: I need technic!!!!!!!!!!! —John Guerquin
     (...) Agree with you 100% John! I also found it strange that a large Technic car, with the same functionality as the 8880 Super Car, would go on a 50% off sale from Shop@Home 1 YEAR after release. I think the problem may be that LEGO may have (...) (22 years ago, 2-Aug-02, to lugnet.technic)

     (...) Brad Justus stated at BrickFest 2002 that Techinc was not dead. I think he indicated that new sets were coming out in the third quarter. Also, pictures from the Altered States Magazine covering Toy Fare indicate possibly 3 or 4 new medium to (...) (22 years ago, 2-Aug-02, to lugnet.technic)

         Re: I need technic!!!!!!!!!!! —Allan Portillo
     In my opinion, the problem is in 19999, 2000 and 2001 the large technic sets have all been cars and the market may have got board of this. Maybe if they came out with somthing different yet offer great functionality then technic would get very (...) (22 years ago, 3-Aug-02, to lugnet.technic)
    
         RE: I need technic!!!!!!!!!!! —Bill Blackmer
     I would agree here. The last few years have all been large car kits. I think there could be more construction equipment. I think we could have large and complex farm equipment also. I love the space shuttle (8480) I think they could do a large (...) (22 years ago, 3-Aug-02, to lugnet.technic)
