42214 TBC    $179.99    TBC    Summer 2025

According those price points there is likely to be no C+ set. The cheapese C+ set in the last two years had retails prices of 169.99$. 

Expand  

Since there is also no piece counts listed, 42214 could very well be another RC car. The Audi with the same pricetag has the same RRP and will be two years old by summer 2025. 
But I would love to be wrong, these RC cars have zero appeal to me (even as a car fan).

If you're referring to the $179.99 set, then if it's C+ it will be either Porsche GT4-e or the Audi, neither of which can't really be called a flagship. If it's not C+, then it's most likely be a non-motorized, non-licensed, 2000 piece set.

Both sound good to me.

First I was excited for the multiple $60 sets, cause it's usually my favourite price range (60-100 or so) then I thought "second colour for the Corvette, second colour for the Valkyrie"... and that seems more likely to me than multiple distinct sets.

I'm sure that all the sets for $59 are Corvette-scale cars. Technology has almost turned into Lego racers (( This year is just torture for fans of interesting mechanisms and functions!

Every year there are fewer special equipment, I don't like this TLG direction, it would be better if they really moved all sports cars to their own line of "Racers" type

For the Valkyrie there is only one right color and it's dark green.

Good news, today's leaks are June releases. As I mentioned before, leaks for.all themes are missing expensive sets. So there should be few more sets in August wave. Source: legoleak Reddit sub, message from moderator.

Okay if those are june sets maybe the 179$ set is some kind of huge pneumatic john deere set because the scidder retired:)

Hmm but if that fast and furious is 18+ so do we need another big 18+ car because lego releases usually one 1:10 car:)

Good point, but 139 dollar is too low for 1:10. It is price of Ford GT scale car which was also 18+

The L120 Electric doesn't seem to use the spade-nosed rock bucket, so I wonder what the Technic set will use. New bucket part?

Perhaps it will use old bucket from 8455 set. It could fit perfectly with Audi tires...

[Dazzzy]

Not that I have any interest in the L120 Electric, but does anyone else think we'll see panel 46882 completely in black?

That is good news. Value is relative. I'll pass on a 300 euro same old same old sort of model but would happily pay quite a bit more than that for a proper game changer of a flagship. Sort of like they tried to do with 42100. A big, expensive and rather quite well designed/engineered and mechanically powerful (though much too slow) set that was clearly intended to be a big leap forward in ambition (which I do still admire for that), but this time with electronics being a compliment to real authentic mechanisms rather than a replacement to real authentic mechanisms, of which 42100 really didn't have any for it's digging arm/bucket functions.

Aw man, a cool new Volvo Wheel Loader, but neither pneumatic nor powered up, even though it's an electric model irl? What a shame... Couldn't care less about the cars and how they'll mess up the bodywork again.

Well, the ZEUX is a manual set despite being based on an electric loader, so there's that.

I would hope so, but they've used regular Green for all the other Aston Martin sets that use the same paint colour.

They could also use a dark turquoise color, but I think they'll just make it green, which of course is not a good thing. TLG is frustrating(

If TLG use audi tire for L120, 56908 wheel on yellow is super rare.(last release is 2011 and include only 4 in only 1 set.)

Do they not have the dark green that's used in some of those "flora sets"?
