5 Rarest LEGO Technic Shock Absorbers of all time

  • Today, I present, the five rarest LEGO Technic shock absorbers. This is definitely one of the most recognizable components of LEGO Technic, since many lego technic vehicles require suspension. These can be considered to be some of the rarest LEGO Technic pieces of all time. Could the LEGO Technic 42129 mercedes benz zetros tri introduce some brand new shock absorbers? Or what about the LEGO Technic Cat d11t bulldozer 42131? Could this set also introduce some brand new shock absorbers, potentially to accommodate the massive size of the set? If new shock absorbers get introduced in lego technic 2021, then they could definitely also become quite rare.

    I am the inventor of the Lego Shock Absorber. Let me explain. Forty five years ago when I was twelve, I was very interested in the new motocross motorcyle designs that had just started using one large shock in the back instead of two which was common at the time. Fascinated by this, I endeavored to create the type of shock system in Lego. Of course at the time it was unheard of. Back then Lego sets truly were just a little ways above Duplo. Todays parts and variety is staggering to what we had back then. Nevertheless, I began to brainstorm how to do it and this is how I did it. I took one of the little Lego City antennas for cars, the single pip ones that are about 2 inches long with the round top, and I found that a spring from a ball point pen fit perfectly over this antenna. I then took the piece that is used for pistons on the crankshaft and placed the top of the antenna into ti. Then a circular disk was placed on the antenna that allowed the antenna to move freely and be attached to an axle and the other part to the body of the car or similar and it worked. It worked very, very well. Then, enthralled I took a polaroid photograph of my invention and mailed it to Lego headquarters. A year later, the fancy molded plastic shock absorber came out. Lego stole my idea, although they made it much better than my ad-hoc creation. Strangely I am proud and angry at the same time. ROFL

    the last shock absorber (10l part 32181C02) actually appeared in a fair few models, including all 3 of the racers from early 2000s (Silver Champion, Williams & Ferrari you mentioned) except that in the Silver Champion/Williams it was actually a 'clear light blue' colour which made it even rarer than the clear version used in the Ferrari and other models around that time

    Anybody know if the "damped" shock absorber is dampened in both directions? In other words, is it on both compression AND rebound, or is it just the rebound that's damped (like it appears to be in the video of the door being shut @ 4:12)?
