9398 4x4 Crawler, building live stream

Today I decided to bring a new experience for you, TBs readers.
As you may have already noticed through our facebook page, yesterday I've started to build one of the new 9398 4x4 Crawler out there. Today I'll continue for awhile, from the middle of the second book, and decided to try a live stream for the first time so that you can watch it if you want.

It should go live in a few moments and hopefully I should be able to make it available online just afterwards. So if you loose the live show, you can at least see a replay later on also here...

Enjoy and you're welcome to leave your feedback in the comments to this post.



Edit:

Hi guys, it was really great to make this experience and to finish building the Crawler with you!
As far as I noticed at some moments we got 13-15 of you watching the video stream, which was realy good considering it was done without notice!

The final part where I made some tests and when the Crawler started to climb the walls was really surprising and amazing at the same time!
I believe you may have got as surprised as myself.

I must say that I really enjoyed to build this model and to play with it, a lot more than I was expecting. It looks great, it works like a charm and the model is really sturdy, so it won't easily break apart when it falls and rolls from a climb.

For once TLG came with a Technic model the really surpassed my best expectations.

For those who was not able to to watch it live, I've just made the videos available for you to see anytime at USTREAM TechnicBRICKs Channel (http://ustre.am/1mno).
Despite being possible, I'm not planning to share these at YouTube. So you might want to see them here or at the link above.

It is a sequence with four videos, in a total of 2h40m (aprox.) - The time it took to build the model from the middle of the second book untill the end, to take photos, do some tests and read/answer your questions.

All the action happens at the end of the fourth video and it was also during this video that I spent most of the time interacting with you guys, speaking and answering your interesting questions.

For those who are going to see this only after the show, you will find many questions in the comments to this post, which I've tried to answer in the video.

Now I'll proceed taking some footage for one video and writing the set review to publish here at TBs at my own pace... there is a lot to say or to write about this set.


All the best!
