Wow... a technic polybag. Never expected to see something like that but it's so cool!

[TechnicRCRacer]

This is very exciting!

Definately the first good picture I've seen of the Technic Polybag and I'm pleased to see this, but I'm not 100% sure it can be claimed as the first ever Technic Polybag, I think there were a couple 20 years ago.

Very nice little parts pack IMHO. Thanks @msk6003

I'm confused :S

This isnt a MOC or previous technic set, nor is it a technic 2021 set :S

 

:S

Yeah TLG does weird stuff every once in a while.

Very cute little set  Any idea about the pricepoint?

@msk6003 your gear count has to be wrong, because there Is a 12T double bevel gear visible at the belly of the helicopter. In addition to that one you need 4 more gears to complete the driveline for the small rotor. There are 5 gears in total.

Polybags are usually €3.99, but sometimes given for free when ordering at LEGO.com with purchase of a certain set. But it could also come with a magazine or something, they've done that before for other themes.

I suppose the color difference between that green panel and the three beams puts to rest any doubt as to whether the Sian color problems have been fixed, doesn't it?

Guess I learned something new today :D

I like that a lot! and im happy to see technic polybags, polybags are always a lot of bang/buck in my eyes, considering you get a well thought out fun little build for peanuts.

Ill see if i can build this from my spares when the instructions show up, im just not sure if i have the small rear rotor.

[Ngoc Nguyen]

Wait, no instruction?

Oh it will be in there, i meant if they show up on lego's website. That way i can build it from parts if i cant find one for sale.

I'm not picture taker but I think taker didn't capture instruction. Build technic offical model without instruction is true pain and online instruction for polybag feel useless.

 

[howitzer]

I guess you could fit the instructions on the backside of the bag itself?

One of the convention activities two years ago was ‘build by the box’ and that year it was the Technic mini cherry picker. Nobody got it right 

 

I hope this polybag is distributed everywhere as sometimes I only see one type of polybag in stores.

[JunkstyleGio]

Found  this one somewhere on FB. Tried to rebuild it from that one picture...

 

Well that was fun! Too bad I only have bigger rotorblades.

In the back there should be a 3L perpendicular connector. There seems to be a blue pin in the middle hole of that part also, though it's not visible what's connected there on the pictures I've seen. And the 4L half beam is the one with a thick end.

[JunkstyleGio]

As I did not seet the picture and parts before I build it.

With only a picture of the polybag itself  (without sticker on the bag) i came pretty close.

The perpendicular connector was a big mis.

The 4l halm beam  too, but I don't care because it's not needed.. (a regular 4l half beam makes a strong enough connection)

the blue pin can only atached  like the render below. or is it a 3l pin?

It might be a half pin with a transparent round tile attached, to make a tail light.

very interesting, this will make a great parts pack
