The Technic product manager confirmed it´s the first in a series of models. Expect the next one in 2018 or 2019, I guess. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gregpj Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 I didn't like the explorer at first, but it's growing on me. And it would be way cool if (when) someone modified it for 4wd. (or 4 track drive) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't recall seeing a video with it "rolling." Ok so.. "I can't wait for someone to modify it with power functions." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok so.. "I can't wait for someone to modify it with power functions." I doubt they would put driveshafts in just for show. If you look at the video you can see there are cogs on each fron axle near the portal hubs and when they turn the back right track to rotate the engine pistons, the front right track also rotates. I am guessing there is no central differential, though. Should be easy to put an L motor in the engine bay instead of the fake one.

Do you mean this? https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=32016#T=S&C=5&O={"color":5} If so, I get it... that's one really expensive piece. So what you're saying is that when the price drops, this could be a very easy set to sell to Technic moc'ers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kd123 Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 (edited) Actually as ridiculous as the prices are for the 3 red connector, buying this set for the two I see in this set to build a moc in red would still be pricey. My hope with this set coming out is that bricks and pieces will start carrying the red3s at a much better price for builders. And so this may be a precursor to a decline in price for this piece on bricklink. Edited August 2, 2017 by kd123 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
