Just incredible ! I love the behind the scene explanation on the prototypes. As you said, at final it looks simple but it is not, this is where you see something is carefully designed, when nothing can be removed and that the movement / functions is amazingly well done.
There are a few newcomers making absolutely brilliant gbc machines. However the bar was set by Akiyuki. Amazing to be the inspiration for others. What i love about Akiyukiness is the combination of mechanical ingenuity with a graphical precision of the models. Hard to match and although i've seen others do amazing mechanics the combination remains unchallenged.....so far......
Brilliant! Do the hockey sticks need adjustment over time or are they stable? Love how you use colour in your MOCs, and ball-dependant mechanisms like this!
That's what I found myself wondering too, especially because it seems the hockey sticks can bang into the rotating wedge at pretty high speed at the bottom of their descent.
Awesome breakdown, fascinating and original idea as always. Really intrigued by the mechanical ‘detection’ mechanism that’s super cool to see applied again. Also, neat video production! It’s great to see another video of yours, Akiyuki-san.
I love how you surely often invisible part of the design, where you're tweaking the parts that seem to matter less, but are just as important if not more important than the main mechanism
I wonder. Since we can see the system took 80 balls at once like a champ, if this would be better served without the screw distribution system and stair-climb input system, and instead got paired with a unit that collects maybe 30-45 balls before unleashing them all at once. Tuned to the attention span of the audience, of course, because that's 30 to 45 seconds of waiting. But then this device here gets you an output of 4 balls over 4 seconds, and there are lots of units that can take small surges like that and smooth them down into the 1 per second rate.
Think the output doesn't quite match the input rate though (assuming 1 ball always enter the machine from the initial stepper, the 4 poles takes slightly longer to complete a full cycle of picking up ball, and resetting than it takes for 4 balls to enter the system

The building legend Akiyuki is glad to be back! Dominating GBC module!

Nothing brightens my day more than a fresh Akiyuki GBC module.
The legend is back!
Awesome module!
oo really clever design as always!
also the odds of the shot at 6:40 hahah
Ball took a shortcut. Haha
Amazing, as always!
It's crazy how much consideration goes into something that is as smooth, clean and seemingly simple as this
Beautifully creative work. I love the splash of colour, too.
It reminds me the "catch and spin robots"
These module with pure mechanical ball detection are insane
This is by far the best looking ball contraption I've seen, super awesome!!
This modules is ALL kinds of awesome! I *love* this module - it is so much fun to watch!
Ah the final version makes it look so easy. Deceivingly well engineered! Very nice colors too!
運び終わった後、くるくる回って落ちる動作が見てて面白い
Akiyuki is back and his modules are as amazing as ever!
Always so beautifully symmetric, unique and with seamless operation. GBC grand master.
Clean design as usual. Happy to see your building instruction on Planet GBC!
Genius! 🏹
試作段階まで見れる動画は久しぶりですね!
いつも見てて楽しいモジュール開発をありがとうございます!
I always love the ones like this where the ball's presence actually has a hand in driving the mechanism.

This is amazing. I would want to add a counter to be able to "race" the four different poles.
I've been watching your creations for many years. I'm always impressed. This is such a cool use of the new screws!

I too am a ball-responsive mechanism.

absolute genius. Love the part that prevents the blockage next to the base of the lifter
Your imagination and skill have no limits.
What an amazing GBC! 🔥🔥🔥
The concept behind this build is so cool!
came just in time to see this beauty, how nice.
Wow, crazy interesting design! What a great module to watch work.
Glad to see you back in the GBC game! Pretty neat module ❤
Wow, yet another work of genius!!
Great to see you creating them again!
The legend is back 🔥
He is Back im so happy🎉🎉🎉
Brilliant! Glad you are on board with us at Planet GBC.
I love these GBC’s that only fire when triggered by a ball. Great work!
Don't think I didn't notice that gear fall out at 3:29, haha. But seriously, great build as always!
Amazing creativity as always! Welcome back 🎉
Very cool. Surprised that course worm gear does not come in a Technic set, yet. Would love to see it in a poly bag set.
thanks alot for that new video, your creations are always amazing 😊 !
amazing machine! i love the inclusion of the prototypes!!!
Extremely cool as always!
it was great to see some of the prototype process
It's incredible how the spiral appears to stop rotating when a ball blocks the carrier. Nice optical illusion you've built there.
great soft lighting and color
This is more than great! Nic function, very appealing design!
初見で変な笑いが出たw
ていうかAkiyukiがGBC続けてくれてて嬉しい
That vertical screw-lift mechanism seems brilliant!
Awesome as usual! I was always curious about how well these new Helix Gears worked. Looks like I might have to pick up some
Pole dancing????
WOW amazing to watch 💗💗
Amazing design and works well too, it seems
Really clever and cool design
Woah, this is really neat!
Masterpiece 1001 that no one thought possible
相変わらずの圧倒的に洗練された機械構造で、私は舌を巻きます。
so satisfying to watch. I just wish it was synchronized or staggered evenly
Awesome job dude 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
very good build! also at the end slowed down it sounds like a bowling alley
I see a masterful build like this and all I can think is... "Man I'm dumb" (I couldn't do this in a million years!)
Brilliant!
That is very cool!
Clever design!
I really like the new 6L worm gear, that's why I got myself 40 pcs of them :D
awesome work!
Shoutout to the basketball at 6:42 that managed to bullseye the bucket without going up the lift.
Return of the King!
needs a little motor underneath to vibrate to unstick the balls that get stuck in the corners.
this is incredible...
I love this one so much
That is so clever!
Return of the king!
Awesome, always love the differential slip type mechanisms, not sure the correct term
Awesome 😊
Very nice!
reminds me of the helicopter seeds :) great as always!
I dont what we can do with but you make some realy interesting builds 👌👌👌
Amazing!

Great module, glad to see you back at it. Also, how many people have already started building this?
The Best in the Game 🎉
とても魅惑的です
This is so clever
天才
Fantastic module!
My question is how reliable is the hokey stick position? Looks like it could be knocked easily

久しぶりの動画ありがとうございます!
いつも思うのですが、全部レゴ社の製品なんですか?
I also tried with gbc but it's difficult, it can't move as smoothly
You should compete in Lego Masters! Or at least as a surprise judge.
I love the astethics
Think the output doesn't quite match the input rate though (assuming 1 ball always enter the machine from the initial stepper, the 4 poles takes slightly longer to complete a full cycle of picking up ball, and resetting than it takes for 4 balls to enter the system
Il reste le meilleur 👍
I dunno, I think they need to show more leg on the way back down
Nice!
What else did you try before using the hockey stick?
Screw this! This is my favorite module so far 😅
