I think you could use these pins for a rubber band tensioner.

“The first issue was released in July 2022” well hot damn i guess the time machine does work

The pin does not look useless to me at all. You can use it for stuff like flags or capes, or anything made from paper or thin plastic.

I feel like that half pin could be used for belts on Technics! 😃🤔

5:36 it could act as a buffer for trains.

4:36 the first issue WAS released in July 2022.... Interesting. It is only May 2022 now.

I had completely forgotten about the Technic games!! I used to play these when I was 8 years old! Now im nearly 20

That last peice would make a nice mechanical stopage for steering or gears

wish there was a burnout style lego technic game, using both old and new lego technic sets to compete in races, it would be interesting to see a race between the Super Street Sensation vs Lamborghini Sian, or: Silver Champion vs Mclaren F1 mcl36, etc

there was a online game where you could drive a yellow technic car around a toystore but i dont remember where it was on

why would you want to have regular calculator with the name technic slapped on, whats the actual difference between that and any other calculator?

There was LEGO 4x4 Extreme Rally that featured the 2001 flagship 8466.

the "useless" pin can be used to put a discrete rubbetband hook to comply with FLL leagal pieces regulations

Rubber bands, ships sails, carpet skids, greebling; It’s far from useless.

Holy crap, I've been looking for that escape room game for YEARS, I kept googling "lego technic door gear game" and could never find it

Thanks for sharing! Nice video!

Now i think i need a lego technic branded calculator lol

Last year my dad brought the technic magazine for me and it even came with a polly bag

The technic magazines first issue came out in July 2022? That's cool because that's still over a month away

The calculator looks like it was probably sold at the legoland Techic pavilion. I remember the gift shop had all sorts of things branded with theme names. LEGO Aquazone notebooks, Adventure themed water bottles, and sure, probably a technic themed stationary set with a cheap rebranded calculator.

Those half pins can probably be used for rubber bands/ what ever Lego’s term is for them. I’m talking about the thin ones

I have that same calculator, but unfortunately it's not Lego-branded

that pin could easily be used in a pully mechanism or even as a string guide for a mechanism, it could be used as a buffer for a trains bumper or even for 2 parts crash into each other to minimise impact

That piece presented in #1 looks like it could be used in some sort of rubber band linking capacity. Or maybe as a means of routing a cable for a build with electronics.

Thanks for the video!

I thought I recognized my binary counter in there... 😂 Thanks for putting it in there Unbrickme!

But no pressure, no pressure!

There was a Racing game based on the Green and Orange pullback cars that came out the year after the blue and red pullback cars

It was a surprise to see that I appeared in this video!

I had the Cyberslam Plane and Jump-up Animals set and 3 Rescue Vehicles that came out around the same time.

Love it keep up the good work

i could see using the little pin to hold a rubber band if you need more clearance than a 6628 pin with ball

6:00 bump stomp

I would assume the calculator was an executive item for meetings, like when companies get their logo on pens etc that they don’t make

What did you mean by only know of 4 technic games as there were several that came with kits.

Great to see your channel going strong!

set 8299 came with a whole pack of underwater-theme games on CD-ROM, you might need a Windows 98 machine to run them though.

Odd, I remember getting calculators of that same model, albeit with different branding on, at various conventions and meetings when I was younger...

That pin looks like it could be used for the buffer of a British steam engine

The car seen at 2:44 was my 3rd ever lego technic set

Those useless pins look like train buffers.

Thanks!

interesting info about blakbird, i helped him with the akiyuki project a few years ago and now im the only one of the original people who worked on that project who is still active with the Akiyuki stuff.

6:00 furnature foot

In the strange things I discovered recently, the first Lego set with remote control for a vehicle ( forward/backward AND steering ) isn't a Technic one as I thought until then ( like the ones in 1990 and 1993, control center and else ), but a brick set from 1970... With the good old 4.5 v motor...and guess what? None of it are sold... I have to admit I really want to see it at least once

1:17 ihave played both of those games and i miss them i have not complete the technic tower but i have tried at least

Only other use i could think of for the useless pin is using it for rubber bands in sets

Thank you for all that you have done on this channel

Lego technic isn’t a theme - it’s its own LEGO paradigm

Can’t wait to play these games

Man ya deserve more subs! Been subbed for over a year now!

Thre is another old game: 4x4 Extreme Rally.

You should do a review on the Lego City Stuntz racers

Wow,some of these things,I didn't even know

Can you do a review for the alternate builds on rebrickable for the land rover

I just rediscovered lego technic as an adult, I’m working on motorizing the raptor set. Any suggestions on my next set?

Hey unbrickme, you should review the technic 42042 crawler crane, I think you’d like the gearbox.

use it as a lego door stopper

Hello ! I would like to ask where you found your sources from the technic blog, if you can provide a link, I would appreciate it! Also, which issue of the magazine is this exactly, in which they write about the amazing methods of component development Markus Kossmann took part in? This video was really great, if you are like me, Technic itself means a lot to me and I am also interested in the small historical details, a theme that is almost 50 years old, which really describes what technic really means and what value it represents!

that useless piece would be a good "front wheel" for the little R2D2 minifigs lol

If a black version of the pin was made ot would be perfect for train buffers

6:00 two rubbers connecting maybe ?

Why didn’t you review the Land Rover defender nor the DeLorean?

Why didn’t you review the Lego Land Rover and the DeLorean

6:00 false rivets

Does anyone have a link or something to the old lego technic blog? In particular the post about the unimog's suspension?

July 2022 hasn't happened yet. It's still June 2022...unless you meant July 2021?

As there was a Lego calculator there was also a Lego Technic stopwatch

When I get more technic sets I’m gonna make a gbc

Informative and entertaining 🙂

That pin could hold one end of an elastic

In Lego...nothing is useless.

1:32 🐊

The flash site doesn't work, what can I do?

Someone needs to create a Lego technic discord server

4:36 July 2022 hasn't happened yet.

Never imagend to have a cameo in a video lol

Rebit PIN !

Killer Mustache your growing
