Technic Pull-Back sets

tefarrel

I have been looking far and wide, but I am just wondering if there's some design that incorporates all 14 of these sets.  I have all of them and I have done their double-up builds (which are fun), but I'd be interested to see what would happen if someone combined them all.

So, a Technic pull-back Voltron? ;-)

Could one even build something out of Lego that would allow a person to exert the pressure in the right direction to wind up 14 pull-back motors?

I've not seen anything like it, but if you end up trying it out, let us know how you get on!

I tried something similar with the Chima speedorz. These are a bit harder than the pullbacks as you have to rip the cord, and I could just about get three going at the same time. Even so, I'd like to see someone try to do 14 pullback motors at once.

Maybe you could use a bunch of Power Functions motors and some serious gearing design to pull it back (:

You could get enough gearing to wind them up by hand with a crank like a big clockwork mechanism. Definately add some sort of catch that you have to release as I'm not sure how much force could be unleashed but you'd definately want to control it.

I really hope you do this and make a video!
