Eurobricks members Lasse D and Ricecracker decided, a year ago, to collaborate and build matching MOCs of a Mercedes Actros Car Transporter. Here are the results:

In 1989, Lego introduced a new theme known as Model Team. The theme offered detailed models in a much larger scale than that of Classic Town or “Minifig-scale”, and lasted a number of years. One of the best sets among the collection was 5542 Black Thunder Helicopter released in 1998. With 483 pieces at a price of approximately $40 (U.S.), this detailed flying machine was a fantastic model for Lego builders. Brickshelf member Octan shares detailed pictures of this great set.
