Lots of good stuff in that catalog. The only CaDa sets I have are their 1:24 Sauber F1 car and their Space Shuttle designed by Eric Trax, but there's quite a few sets in that catalog that I might like to get. The Speed Racer Mach V, of course, is a must-buy.

I am really tempted to order the AMG GT3 but my experience with the poor sticker quality of the large Sauber F1 car has made me hold back.

My most enjoyable CADA build to date is the black 911 GT primarily because it doesn't have any stickers!

CADA IMHO really need to catch up with Lego regarding stickers as thats their achilles heel.

Is there anyone who has obtained & built the AMG GT3 please tell me if it has stickers,  if so is the quality good & do they have large clear areas that span multiple pieces?

 

EDIT Don't worry Facebook answered - No stickers all printed.

The dark red manual version of the AMG One looks nice. Even if mostly a recolor I like the color a lot more than LBG. I also see @astyanax credited, I guess he is responsible for the manual transition.

Yep, I implemented a gearbox and manual operations. There are 4 different HOG functions in the front:

  • HOG steering
  • HOG gear shifting
  • HOG left door
  • HOG right door

Plus, the rear wing is extended & retracted via a hidden gear underneath the rear.

In Case the boxart makes it not clear, the red has some glitter in it.

What is this Add Power? I could not find any info about them online. 3rd party electronics company? Do you have more info?

Thanks, sounds interesting. I see that most components are just standard RC electronics without any lego compatible housing, the main thing is the in-wheel motors and custom rims, but that can result in good play experience and easy installation.

The color scheme and manual version of the AMG One are great. Kinda regret buying the motorized, silver grey version now.
The Alpine's look really good and the print quality is superb (source HdS video):

Any info on a release date for the recoloured AMG One?

I have heard in the mid of the year.

Did they cancel a large RC excavator? I feel like I saw pics of something a year and a half ago but nothing since

I've given up hope that we will ever see it.

Oh lmao turns out all I had to do was Google Image search CaDA JCB Excavator to see it... it's so different to what I remember, I could have sworn it was a more orange-yellow, but maybe that was just the lighting

I have good news and bad news.

The bad news: There will be no JCB excavator. Now that it has disappeared from the catalogue I can say it but can't provide more details.

The good news: I'm currently working on another version with a different brand. We're doing everything we can to release it this year. An added bonus is that I can fix all the JCB issues in a new set, plus it'll eat a Lego Volvo for breakfast.

 

P.S. I built the prototype in regular yellow. At JCB's request, we changed it to Bright Light Orange.

But I like my Volvo! I don't want this if it's going to eat my Volvo for breakfast!

 I'm following up on this situation here:

One hint I can tell you is that the excavator has a new part that @SaperPL and I designed especially for this set and many Technic AFOLs will love it as soon as they see it.

I'm pretty disappointed that noone started asking about this part after this teaser from @eric traxIt's actually still pretty mind blowing to me that we could manage to print a prototype of it that worked well for his model on a FDM printer :P

I would ask, but i know how less permission i have to say something about my models. And why asking when you are not allowed to answer?

So what's the new part?

Is it the bucket?

 

Trax spotted the part in the wild, so we assume I can spill the beans on this one now:

@SaperPL I've printed your XXL turntable on my P2S FDM printer in PLA (top) and PETG (bottom) and it turned out great! Still a little high friction despite of lubing it with grease, but I hope it will wear in. This part is huge and built like a tank, even though I used  50% sparse infill, it weighs 34g. As I said, the only thing that would have made this turntable even better was having inner gear teeth as well.
One thing I notice on the injection molded production part is that they made the grey bottom part a bit higher so that the black top parts thrust face is not on the same level as the bottom surface to not cause friction. They also changed from 4 large outer clips to 6 thinner ones to make the clips more flexible and fitment easier.

Further details of the IVECO Bus. Sadly it's just system bricks, no Technic functions at all:

Nice idea for the packaging of the dinosaur fossils trio:
