This reminds me of the older technic sets in how it's mostly about function again!

Now that I think about it, you could use this to store the smaller extra lego pieces from sets. Just pour them into the garbage bin and dump it into the garbage truck

The mechanism to grab the bin is very neat. Had been considering this set already because the child Tonka lover in me still likes big trucks.

I do like the Super Mario Toad/Mushroom Cap's being used for the recycling containers in this set.

This is a reasonable set, pretty good looking and very functional. It's very similar in price to the City Recycling Truck from last year, which itself is similar in size to this Technic set, although the Technic set is a little bit larger in each direction.

The axis that connects the rear door with the body 1:35 has 2 round pieces on its left end, but nothing on the right. I made it look symmetrical by using the round elements from the left-over pieces and added them on the right end of the axis.

It's not minifigure scale but close enough that this would fit in well in a Lego city, however I would modify the cab to be made from system parts.

The grabber arm has a similar operating principle as the robot arm in 8094 Control Center. It does the grab first and then the resistance causes the motion to redirect into lifting the arm.

I'd say just replace the little 2 stud liftarm with the thin version and a bushing and it won't be touching that tile at all.

Lego has made a multitude of garbage trucks, but never with this type of mechanism. Until after a fan showed them how to do it, and that people wanted something like it. The Ideas ‘Automated Garbage Truck” was submitted over 3.5 years ago. It’s disingenuous to say that this model doesn’t owe something to that original design. Now, there is, quite literally, nothing wrong with them doing something like this. They do own all ideas that are submitted, and can use them however they want. However, we shouldn’t gloss over that behavior. Lego *should* have acknowledged the original fan design, whether they “needed” to or not, without giving the successful Ideas payment…. it just would have been nice of them.

im fully in favor of the father and son lego ideas garbage truck being inspired, in fact the 4th bricklink creators program is opening up this month and im hearing that the garbage truck is going to be submitted. we still may be able to get the father son garbage truck!

That mechanism is blatantly copied from the rejected lego ideas garbage truck. Are they purposefully rejecting ideas only to use them later and get out of having to pay the original designer!?

@Dorgpoop10 ай бұрын
The worst culprit of this imo is the upcoming 42179 Earth and Moon Orbit set. It's clearly based on several rejected Lego ideas submissions and especially JK Brickworth's Orrery which he even managed to get made into an official CaDA set. People used to complain about other brick companies stealing from Lego but increasingly I think the opposite is also true.

@willbroshears501510 ай бұрын
Lego sets are in development for ages sometimes. In some cases, a designer might have a have a concept developed for years that sits in their desk before it can be made into a set. It’s possible a Technic designer had been working on this mechanism before the ideas set even hit 10k supporters. It is more likely that they planned to release this set, and when reviewing the ideas project, they rejected it because they already had this set scheduled for release and didn’t want two garbage trucks on the market at once. Plus, toy garbage trucks have been around for decades, so it’s hard to claim originality.
@Nerdtendo636610 ай бұрын
I don’t think the designers stole the idea, but the requirement to get a set to 10k is not that hard anymore. And when you make stuff based off of the same thing than similarities are bound to happen. I can almost guarantee that the Idea designer was not the first to think of the mechanism
@lifesabrick510410 ай бұрын
I bought it to compare with the moc I completed of the garbage truck with side loading mechanism based on what I could determine from the Levi/Scott Hasse design. Scott Hasse was even kind enough to comment on my how-to video noting my design was very close to theirs. I can see already this mechanism is quite different actually but gets the job done. You mentioned the stickers but I was hoping you'd address the glaring issue of the front Mack sticker placement. There is that lengthy but small-in-width depression that the sticker goes right over. It looks like you were able to push yours into that depression, I'm just concerned how long it will stay flat.
