Here is a minifigure sized car transport semi for the Lego Town theme. The cab design is original and took a lot of tweaking. It is a bit harder to see due to the black color.

Thanks for the comments Cyberfrank. Your comments are well thought out and helpful. The semi is actually pretty solid. I took months working to make it not only look good but be playable. I agree with you about pricing. It does have quite a few pieces. I put this set on Cuusoo but so far it hasn't gotten more than about 200 votes, last I checked.

yeah! at last, someone else tried a car transport semi, it s real cool, I especially appreciate that you came up with other solutions than I did, it s too bad I can t hold it, to see how solid it is, as I thought of this 'pole' system, and feared it was a bit too weak to hold cars, and never tried, my system is more bulky, although, still a 6', the reason lego has nt sold some, is price point, mine holds 5 cars, just in cars, it gets close to $60, add the semi, $80, at least, it gets to be an expensive package, a $150 semi would probably not be a best seller.
great semi! |

Love everything about this. Simple, but very playable. Just as Lego should be.
Thanks. That was the aim when I built it. It was anything but simple to design though. =) Many hours were spent making it accomodate 4 wide cars that stick out slightly wider than 6 wide in the wheels, while still keeping the semi truck 6 wide with external supports. |

Thanks for all the positive comments guys. I'm working on an alternate color scheme for the cab to make the details more visible. |

very nicely done, great work on the ramps for loading/unloading, well done.
Thanks, I'm thinking of redoing it in a different color so the finer design details on the cab can be more visible. |

hey do you by chance have building instructions. if so please sent a link to zroberts@indenver.net
I was working on some instructions on LDD but for some reason, when I try to start the program now, it freezes at the startup window. I may have to uninstall and redownload it. LDD is very fussy when I try to bend the ramps and attach them with the Technic pieces. It tries to rotate the truck instead of tilting the ramps. |

This is awesome. I don't think I've seen another transporter at this scale. I think you did a wonderful job on making the ramps function right. you've built a very nice truck here. |

I was thinking of building one of these myself. Nice work!
Thanks, it took a surprisingly long time to work out the technical details on this particular semi. I really like making CIty vehicles. I'll have to post some more of MOCs soon. |
