Update: As I just read on EuroBricks, LEGO® also wants to release a Zetros in the Technic series in summer 2021. The Zetros will have the LEGO® Technic set number 42129. I am very curious to see how LEGO® has realised my favourite truck.

  1. I’m curious, I have always wondered how some of the MOC builders out there connect the wheels to the turntables.
    Can you send me a picture?

  2. Regarding: Mercedes Zetros 2733 – 6×6 – with Loader Crane

    Hi, can you please provide instructions for this model? i will pay for them. Or I’ll buy the truck already built from you.

  3. Hi Dimitri,

    I thought about making instructions for the cabin and the hood so everybody can built it’s own Zetros. But as more and more people ask for I tend to say, maybe I’ll make full instructions fro a new Zetros. But first I have to find time to do so.
