Skippy

Following a vehicle that appeared here earlier in the week (which the builder has now updated with an indolent, tracksuit-wearing, oxygen-wasting, fly-tipping scumbag after reading the post, earning themselves 100 TLCB points), this is how you should actually dispose of waste, via a properly licensed skip company.

Cue previous bloggee damjan97PL (aka damianPLE), and this rather excellent Technic Scania P-Series skip lorry. (Damian also earns 100 TLCB Points for calling his build a ‘skip lorry’, rather than a ‘container truck’ as LEGO would.)

Wonderfully realistic, Damian’s Scania not only looks the part, it also features some fantastic manually-operated and pneumatic functions, including rear outriggers, ‘HOG’ steering, a working inline 6-cylinder engine underneath a tilting cab, and a pneumatically-powered boom, able to perfectly lower and hoist a neat brick-built skip.

Damian has made building instructions available and there’s more of his top-quality Technic Scania skip lorry to see at the Eurobricks discussion forum, his ‘Scania Skip Loader’ Bricksafe gallery, and via the video below.

Liquid Gold

Thanks to the combination of a worldwide pandemic, the scumbaggery of Putin, and the greed of energy companies, petrol prices peaked in the TLCB’s home nation at over £2 per litre. For those in the States, that’s around $6 per gallon. Which made TLCB staff very much ponder hijacking a petrol tanker.

Cue today’s creation, which is a Scania P-Series tanker truck, as constructed by previous bloggee damjan97PL. Unfortunately for the impoverished staff here at The Lego Car Blog, there is no liquid gold inside, but the model is packed with other goodness, including remote control drive and steering, a six-cylinder piston engine under the tilting cab, and a lifting third axle.

Building instructions and a video of the model in action are available, and you can see more of damjan’s Scania tanker at the Eurobricks forum with the complete image gallery hosted via Bricksafe.
