 The long wait is finally over - at last - the building instructions for all 4 amazing robot remix from this summer's MCP RobotRemix#1 challenge! Again, all of these great models can be build using only parts from the LEGO MINDSTORMS (31313) set and the LEGO TECHNIC Fire plane (42040). A big thank you goes to Robin, the creator of Lucky Cat who took the time to make these professional looking building instructions for you all!

This is why during summer of 2015 the LEGO MINDSTORMS team challenged the MCP, and asked for help to solve a creative problem… The challenge this time,  to imagine what type of creative combination models could be made using only parts from the LEGO MINDSTORMS (31313) set and the newly launched LEGO TECHNIC Fire plane (42040). The ROBOT REMIX #1 is a mix between the Sea Plane (42040) and the EV3 (31313) sets. The result is the ROBOTREMIX, a creative concept whose goal is to show the cool stuff possible remixing your LEGO MINDSTORMS set with only 1 other LEGO TECHNIC set. There were lots of great ideas from the MCP group, but 4 ideas where finally chosen to receive a set to get started exploring the combination. The final and awesome creations by Xander (Netherlands), Robin (China), Arthur (Brazil...
