The Ford GT is done, and I really enjoyed it (understand why some here haven’t). Some nice functionality with the doors and rear wing, and some interesting connection techniques. Ok the colour scheme is fairly bland but I wonder if Ford had a hand in this in order to issue the licence. I’d love to see a MOC of the race version!
I’ve also got round to the Material Handler. For a fairly modest price there’s a lot going on here, and pneumatics work well. Nice one.

Well that sealed it for me and also getting it for €132 from Brickmo was a bit of a result.Will pair nicely with the Le Mans Racer 42039

The Maclaren is on my "when it's under £x list".
I am one bag into the Airbus.
If you decide to move the airbus on perhaps we could do a deal like we did for the BMW I am one bag into the Airbus.
I got the airbus on eBay but it arrived utterly trashed by Evri and haven't got round to replacing it, and missed the £120 Amazon window.
I have finished the Airbus. It's very, very clever. Also the Raptor - better than I expected from the reviews. It's just engine, doors, and suspension, but the rear suspension is very nicely done and it's a good finished model.
Amazon have the Ford GT down to £84 which is rather tempting.

Got my lad the 42144 Technic Material Handler for his birthday, I was really impressed with it. Felt more like the Technic of old with lots of working features rather than something trying to look like a licensed product with little play value. Has 2 pneumatic cylinders controlling the boom, another one for the grab, the cab goes up and down via a worm gear, steering on one of the axles and the stabilizer arms lock out with an over-centre toggle mechanism. Thje grab is an ingenious little build by itself from what I could see (with every one he builds I'm needed less and less for help!)
Was about £80 from Zavvi and makes up into a decent sized vehicle. Good value at that price although don;t think I'd have paid full rrp for it.
