Neat NXT Snowcat in Lego Mag
In the latest edition of the Lego Magazine, there was this neat-looking NXT Snowcat made by LEGO Master Builder Dave Gold. It looks really neat, and I was wondering - why haven't I seen this anywhere else? Has anyone else seen it, other than in the Magazine?Here's another picture of the whole robot:

would be nice if thay make it buy-ably
Are those treads like the ones that come with the snowmobile set?
if not, are they expandable...
They aren't the snowmobile treads; I believe they're made of these pieces (except their black, not transparent):

why not use HTML? ;-)
Like "they are made of these pieces"
Oh, that works? Nice... I tried to do it, but was using the wrong tags and therefore thought HTML didn't work with comments. I see how to do it now, though - thanks.

but its nice design would look better with the new treads. you would think they have every part at hand.
I don't know - of course it depends on the snow conditions, but I think the treads alone (without the plow on front) would be able to handle a fair amount of snow - especially if it was crusty, like the snow I've got at the moment. Although it is hard to tell, because there isn't any detailed pics of the tread constructions...
