| Hi all, Just saw another message raving about the new 4wd technic cars, and with good reason. Here's the image from FbtB: (URL) They look extremely cool.

| WOW! Those are undoubtly the best shots I've seen yet! But, the set numbers got me wondering too :-/ Back in late April when I reserved my order through US S@H I used the number 8466 and on a recent order update, it's still listed as 8466. Could it (...)

| What I love, and what makes the set 8266 look appetizing is the apparent diminutive size of the v8 engine. Or maybe they ARE making the engines smaller :))) The more I look at the picture the more I love it. Don't you just want to climb in there and (...)

| (...) LOL I had the exact same thought on this model when I first saw it. I'm a big fan of off-road vehicles in general and, at least from the pictures I've seen so far, this model really appeals to my tastes. I'm really looking forward to this (...)
