I really think that the first lego technic builders are old enough to appreciate and buy something like a special series called "Lego Technic Legends - Redesigned" - old cult models built in the new, lighter style.
I really like this, the original is one of my favorite technic sets, your tribute is beautiful and captures the original look and style of functions used in older technic sets. You did a fantastic job, subbed
Hey Attika! Been a few years, but I finally got the time to built your amazing model, just finished it tonight and enjoyed every step of the way! I wanna thank you again for the instructions but most of all for designing this masterful tribute! Cheers, Maarten
Hi Maarten, you're very welcome. :-) I'm glad you gave it a chance and even more for being satisfied with the results. But promise me, you won't hesitate taking it apart when -later on- you wanna build something else and you need some parts. Worst thing can happen with lego is get covered by dust. ;-)
@@Attika hahahaha dont worry! I've salvaged a lotttt of sets to built your model! Also I added a simple door mechanism behind the b style with a pushrod to lift the gullwings! Easy but nice addition imo! Thanks again! This will be colecting dust for a while :) i'm now planning to create a platform and backdrop with yellow claws like the 8880 commercial showed!
This is so amazing what you did there! :-D I got the original 8880 back in the day, when I was around 7-9 years old and I was sooo proud of myself for building it without the help of others! B-) I had no idea that it was going to be a pinnacle of Lego Technic in many ways... :O
Congratulations that car has everything old Lego fans would wish to get to kinda up to date... suspention, 4wd even ride hight!!! I still build but only with old tech pieces... hope I get out of My dark age 😁
this upgrade is just amazing. the 8880 was one of my favorite sets and according to last count i still have all the parts. i rebuilt it a couple times, once to put an lpe in place of the mock engine and servos on the transmission and steering (hobby servos with 3d printed adapters), but it never ran all that well. this one might be good for a brushless motor conversion.
Chris Mayer TLG is built on a different business model. Their designers could make something like this if it was fitting in that model. Visit eurobricks, fellow AFOL made a digital version of this if u r interested
+RM8 LEGO Technic Garage / ЛЕГО Техник Гараж / EBricks.ru Just getting your attention is an achievement for me, but a like on that is even more. Thank you
I built this one recently and gotta admit, this is great. It kinda works with new 81.6x36R tires (not with a 49294 wheel, any other will do) as well, just need to increase ride height to the max first)
The ride height feature reminds me of the Aixam Mega Track (search it up; you won't be disappointed). No words can adequately describe this redesign in full, though.
+All About Lego Thanks mate. The thing is, in life it looks so much better, somehow the vid just can't give it back entirely. And for this reason I might reconcider my "no instruction" rule, and make one for this... Anyway the brickshelf gallery should be on soon, uploaded yesterday.
this is just really well done, worthy of being called a masterpiece if ihad to nitpick then it would changing out of the pop up headlights with fixed light (idk man i'm just a fan of the aesthetic of pop up headlighs)
Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is some amazing talent you got!! great interpretation of a true classic, as many said before me haha! I am gonna try to recreate your version, I need this on my shelf. love this. Subbed.
Thank you. Couple of hints might help in the process of reverse engineering: Gearbox has it's own video and the steering system is roughly the same as in the pickup concept. The rest is on you, good luck. ;-)
You really put a lot of work and thought into that. Kudos to you. I confirm what Simon sais. A lot of memories are attached to the original 8880, i still have mine (too), but man, you really pulled that off. Getting over peoples nostalgia is an accomplishment. Did you recommend that to Lego btw? I know not a lot of petitions get really made but this might be worth a shot.
Thank you Tao. No I didn't contact Lego in any way. It would be fairly arogant from me to think that all those designers at the Lego (TLG) can't come up with something advanced like this. Sadly nowadays TLG has a "cap" on complexity of the sets they release due to the fact: they sell toys for kids. Ironically this tendency came from the feedback on the original 8880 back in the time. Since then they don't wanna risk customer satisfaction on the difficulty of the building procedure. Too bad. But that gives us -amateur builders- a gap to fill. ;-)
I'm glad you like it, sorry for the delay. Sadly it isn't sold as a kit, so therte isno easy way. My best bet is to go to rebrickable and there should be an option to buy the parts (I don't know, as I'm not even a regular visitor there, let alone to be a member). However my recommendation would be to build up a collection of regular sets, and use those parts as a backbone to build moc's like mine. It's gonna get boring after a time, so you can take it apart and build a new one. I suppose you already have some parts/sets or whatever, so just expand your collection. Benefit of buying full sets, that you can sell them later as full sets if you have to, or want to get rid of them and by the time the price of a discontinued set is just rising, so at the and you made money, instead of loosing it. ;-) Here is the rebrickable link: rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-20224/1963maniac/attikas-8880-evo-tribute/#buy_parts
Thank you, hope it will live up to your expectations. Unfortunetally the ackerman steering could not be done with these new suspension elements. To achieve them with a custom build would have ended up in a bulky assembly, so I've sacrified it on the altar of practicality. The other functions hopefully will make it up for this shortcoming.
I'm new to the custom builds with Technic. I own an original 8880, but I would LOVE to build this 8880evo. Where is a good place to gather parts? I don't want to break down my original to do it...
Hey Greg, don't break down the original, it wouldn't help anyway. This model is made of studless type of technic while th original was built with studded (old) technic parts. Here is a link to the site "rebrickable". rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-20224/1963maniac/attikas-8880-evo-tribute/#comments Here you will find the partlist and some offers to buy the parts from bricklink etc. Hope it helps
+Kelkschiz Thank you. Actually one of your vid gave me the idea how to make a lightweight frame for my ripsaw using connectors instead of beams. Thanks for that impression too.
+Ilea Alex Thanks mate. Checked your chanel, you've got some great ideas too. There will be some part mod videos coming soon, I guess you gonna like them. ;-)
How can somebody dislike that???

@@Attika best response ever :)
@@Attika best answer ever!
Attika, best response I heard for years!
He put a v6 in it lol
it`s sad and awesome at the same time that the time has come where the most mocs are better than a lot of todays original lego technic sets.
I really think that the first lego technic builders are old enough to appreciate and buy something like a special series called "Lego Technic Legends - Redesigned" - old cult models built in the new, lighter style.
Sth like this had to be a 40 years of Lego technic models!!! And not the crap they made last year....
Really awesome work! Thank you for sharing
See description for instructions :-)
I am working on my hummer moc all day and I saw this. Another restless night. This is soemthing. Quite something.
Thank you. :-)
lego should make throwback sets for these vintage technic cars like this one. nice job!
Absolutely fantastic Lego engineering! That and the attention to details and aesthetics, a source of inspiration and admiration
Wow, thank you. I'll print this and frame it. Goes on my wall. :-)
A well deserved tribute. The 8880 was a great set, pretty advanced for that time
this really should be a lego set
And still only available in a right hand drive!!! Grrr!
Great build! Love the attention to detail Thanks for the video.
Long time Lego fan.
See description for instructions :-)
I'm first time on your channel, but i'm so amazed by such models! Thank you!
See description for instructions :-)
Congratulations on an epic homage to the original! Im very impressed with the adjustable ride height mod!!
Man, you should do an evo, of the evo! With feature like working headlights, remote controlled, etc.
AMAZING build tho :)
I just (re)built the 8880 set, after so many years. Great fun :) Your version is friggin amazing! Really, really impressive :)
I love how faithfull it is to the original, while still being completely rebuild. Just got the hubs yesterday so I will definitly give it a try.
A truly faithful recreation of the original. Absolutely epic. Love your work.
Thank you. ;-)
I really like this, the original is one of my favorite technic sets, your tribute is beautiful and captures the original look and style of functions used in older technic sets. You did a fantastic job, subbed

I am highly impressed, that is seriously fantastic job you did!
Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed. :-)
Damn this build is cool. And the original 8880 looked surpricingly good considering how old it is
That gear stick looks so realistic :D
this upgrade is just amazing. the 8880 was one of my favorite sets and according to last count i still have all the parts. i rebuilt it a couple times, once to put an lpe in place of the mock engine and servos on the transmission and steering (hobby servos with 3d printed adapters), but it never ran all that well. this one might be good for a brushless motor conversion.
Really nice setup you built there!
Wow! Nicely done!
the 8880 was also my first lego technic car *love_it
i really liked the suspension regulation :))) now I feel like rebuilding my 8880. Glorious!
Masterpiece. Excellent work.
Great hommage to a great model.
Don't just stand there, Attika; Send your MOC into LEGO so they can make it a reality!!!

Just...Amazing!! Great job:))
Thank you
Amazing!

Thank you. Knowing their politics I'm sure it wont happen. Let just be happy with the 42056 even if it will be orange... ;-)
Yes I cant wait for the 42056. It looks ace!

I really like the coherence with the old model
OMG, you couldn't have done a better job! Amazing! (I didn't have the original though)

+Attika I know exactly what you mean, I have made things before that I think look good but when I upload it it doesn't :(
Please sell these as a kit!
I want one :(

Awesome!!
Wow. Just wow. Bravo!
Cool MOC!
Awesome!
that ride hight change is so cool
I am officially impressed. Nice work, you should definitely be working for LEGO
Awesome! I love too this set , perfect job!
+DarkBrick Thank you. As I've seen you 're also an 8880 fan. :-)
Marvelous !
this is just really well done, worthy of being called a masterpiece
if ihad to nitpick then it would changing out of the pop up headlights with fixed light (idk man i'm just a fan of the aesthetic of pop up headlighs)
great LEGO set WAY beyond my building abilities (it's crazy good) :)
See description for instructions :-)
Absolutely epic!!!💘
thats awesome
lovin your version of this
Crazy set. I want it :)
Beautiful moc faithful to the original. Please put this on lego ideas. Lego need to see
awesome
it reminds me the childhood
this is cool... well done
I like studdy version because i like to make various spoilers, car additions, and guns(i like zombie apocalypse moc's)
Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is some amazing talent you got!! great interpretation of a true classic, as many said before me haha! I am gonna try to recreate your version, I need this on my shelf. love this. Subbed.

See description for instructions :-)
MEN THAT'S AWESOME
Incroyable, bravo
Brilliant. Sheer brilliance.
Thank you, I'm glad you like it.
will try to build this one but honestly I still like the 1994 model more, built it twice this year already together with the F1 :)
You managed to pay tribute preatty well!
+Jan Dvořák
Thanks.
those change car height are like vx bags suspension
I see potential for motorisation here! And instructions 🙃
Cool!!!!
Awsome !
Respect!
I own the original one. It's still build up in a carton somewhere in the attic :D
That's crazy, so impressive
Thanks man. :-)
Your an absolute genius , make more , surprise me
Good work takes time, be patient. ;-)

I wish and hope that Lego makes a set of your remake

Is there a possibility for instructions with partlist? Since I saw this video the first time I need to have this model!
:-) Don't have it yet, but I will make instruction one day. Once it is done I'll let you know. Don't give up, just be patient. Cheers
How can i buy IT? Your build is incredible. I love it.
