BEST...LEGO BUILD...EVER
Very cool. Almost enough to make me run out to Wal-mart for a box of Legos.
Must...resist...too...many...hobbies...already.
NO!! No Legos.
Were those legos? I'v never seen anything other than square and rectangle blocks with the occasional window or door

Lego Technic does have the stuff to make really cool stuff. Anyone else notice the diff? Technic didn't used to have a fully functional differential when I had Legos.
Yeah, I was wondering about the diff and a couple of other parts, specifically if there was any fabrication needed. Awesome either way.
This only backs up my long standing claim that Legos are the best toy(s) ever. Personally, I spent waaaay more time with them than anything else in my youth.
Along similar lines, you guys should take a look at LEGO pneumatic engines. Makes an awesome stress ball or paperweight for the office.

<- still plays with LEGO. Living room has a whole collection in various states of assembly. LEGO Stig hangs off my key chain. As I have stated before, modern LEGO is blah and doesn't leave much to the imagination.

Same here. But these days I just build the creator sets. I have 2 cars, a rescue chopper and a blue sport bike sitting on top of the entertainment center. Considering buying and building the carousel for mothersday.
