I hope that one of the vehicles has claas tyres, but than a bit smaller than the tyres on the xerion.
This way it's possible to build other tractors than with four equal sizes tyres.

Hi Nick. This is not a wish or hope topic. Let's stick to the information we have. Furthermore, the information about the tires is pretty clear by now, so there's no need to hope. You can hope for 1H 2018 :wink: 

Here's the Future Wishes and Speculation topic. Go nuts!

I'm thinking 42070 might be something like 8273; fitting since it's 10 years after it was released. The 2H lineup does look like a Technic version of Spintires, though! :laugh:

As others have said, just going by the names it sounds disappointing for a 40th anniversary. With the variety present in 1H, it's strange to see 3 vehicles in 2H. With 42067 being (probably) the smallest of the lot, there is some potential there for something a bit more unique. I would have preferred to see the names for 67-69, leaving some glimmer of hope for 70, but alas, such is life. Whether or not I will get them will probably largely depend on the color scheme. If it's close to what Jim suggested, it would be great for both display and in terms of a parts pack.

Spintires in Lego? Yes, please! :grin:

I like what we got, and the variety of the sets considering a whole year is good (13 sets known, just like in 2016). I don't see need for a mandatory anniversary model, if we get the usual high quality products, than great. The small piece is already a nice touch in this year. I kinda have a feeling, that a contest, or an extra set will come later in spring - but will be not disappointed if this won't happen.

@ the 6x6 Tow Truck: I wouldn't count on CLAAS tires, but more the 81,6x38 ones. I don't see why to go bigger, everything can be fitted in this scale - just like 2LegoOrNot2Lego did with his Kraz. Of course, I will be not disappointed if it will come with Tumbler or with Unimog tires. :tongue: Even if it is not motorized, but with Pneumatic and fake engine with drivetrain, could be a hit (for me for sure)! I expect something beautifully ugly, like this:

I don't think the rear section is a bed like the arocs or unimog has. Kinda looks more like paneling to partially enclose the rear as is typical for a tow truck. The outriggers appear to be quite clever, using the telescoping parts introduced with the arocs for the vertical sections and using a lever/beam connected to the sliding part through the slot, so as the lever moves/rotates down the stabilizers will move down and outwards at the same time.
