Green Machine

Lego Multicar Tipper

Small, green and a bit odd-looking, this is up there amongst the least cool vehicles ever to feature here at The Lego Car Blog. And it reminds us of TLCB Elves.

It’s a Multicar tipper, built by the German equipment company of the same name that specialises in the slightly weird functional end of the vehicular spectrum, with products such as street sweepers, snow ploughs, tugs and, er… whatever this is.

Odd though it may be it’s a rather lovely model, and one of most thoroughly detailed that we’ve posted this year so far. Havoc is the builder behind it and you can see all the photos of his Model Team Multicar on Brickshelf – click the link above to make the jump.

Town Truckin’

Lego Volvo Truck

You don’t have to build big to build well. Jakeof_‘s superb Volvo truck, complete with tipping trailer, is only 8 studs wide. Small in parts, big in realism. There’s more to see on Flickr – click the link above to visit the Volvo at Jakeof_’s photostream.

Tilting Tatra

Lego Tatra Tippier Truck

How many The Lego Car Blog Elves can you fit in the back of remote controlled Model Team Tatra 815 tipper truck?

As it turns out, lots. Which makes it all the more amusing when said truck is driven to the TLCB Towers door, its tilting load bed is deployed, and the Elven cargo is dumped outside.

We should get some peace in the office for a bit now, and you can check out this most excellent Tatra 815 tipper truck at Jarda‘s Brickshelf account.

Mini Mercedes-Benz Arocs Review

arcos 01

No this isn’t a review of Lego Technic’s monster machine, we’ve already done that. This is a review of Andy L’s mini version, which packs almost the same functionality into a chassis that is just 8 studs wide. It steers, has fold-out stabilisers, it tips and has a very manoeuvrable arm. Andy has also made his own grabber bucket, rather than use Lego’s ready made part. Watch the stop-motion video below and then click on this link to MOCpages to see all of the details.
