Then you get hooked, and you will get the rest

This morning 11am I saw 3 sets on shelf. The 4th set, someone was paying at cashier.

60015 looks like replenished. Got 20+ boxes.

Pneumatic, not LA. More like #8455

Anyway, the movements are not bad with no-load. And the best part using these parts are ... he can change it to hydraulic ! Hydraulic does not compress as much as air. But, when under load, the tubes could pop out or start leaking, can easily resolve by seal/glue it up.

Me kah ? But I'm not taikun
Try eBay

Current standard Sanyo Eneloop (acquired by Panasonic) AA are 2000mAh
AAA are 800mAh

There are Lite at 1000/600 and XX at 2500/950 for AA/AAA

err... try search my nick name or the word "eneloop" in previous few 3-5 threads, I got write TL;DR on it.
But summary is:
- yes, Eneloop are at 1.2V. Using normal 1.5V alkaline means more juice.
- 6x 1.2 = 7.2V, which is below the 9V , hence motor turn slower, won't last that long.
- I mod to 8x 1.2V = 9.6V, still within reasonable threshold

- 10-12V will/may be overkill, and although motor runs even faster, but no guarantee if it will kill the motor prematurely.

All can use, still at 1.2V each.
The mAh is the amount of juice it can provide over a time period. Bigger means longer.

You can imagine like those powerbank 5000mAh and 10000mAh.

Yes, XX is black.
Lite is slightly lighter-colour from standard.
Those colourful/fancy ones are normally standard.

For me, I use standard is enough. Recent took out my AAA batteries which has been kept 3-4 months, and still can power up the trains.
I can't afford XX , cost is like 75%-100% more, but the gain is just 15-25% more mAh

There are instructions from web, youtube videos, brickset website.

Parts can get from Bricklink or part-off from other full-sets. Cost per part from Bricklink will be more expensive, as need to include shipping. Most of the time, need to get from several sellers.
Either buy all cheapest, but from 10-20x sellers + 10-20x shipping.
Or buy average price, but from 3-6x sellers + 3-6x shipping.
Both adds up to be the same.

Wait till you check the cost for electrical parts like motor, servo, cables, lights, battery boxes, etc.

After all the above, it is not that hard to follow the instructions that you want (cause you need to buy the parts based on the one you choose).

Yellow ... no wonder, I got 1 in hand only ... maybe I check and substitute with other colours.

Metal hook I can reuse from older Technic sets.

haiz.... no choice la, I'm not taikun to spend. Substitute is acceptable to me. Maybe try to swap/hide somewhere for the different colour one.
