Wonder if the L120H will have a charging port that can connect to the unit from 42175.

You would hope so, it doesnt seem like a particularly difficult thing to design

TLG is confirmed as an exhibitor, so something is gonna be shown.

I was there... The Lego stand was completely built up. You could only get inside if you were invited or had an appointment. Last year Lego was not at the fair at all. They complained a lot that everyone around them was copying their new products.

I thought that might be the case.  I understand Legos tricky position but I also miss the days of getting those "leaks" and the days before that of getting those thick, square catalogues that showed every product for the whole year. If only we had our own secret place, like a secret garage, where the first rule is to talk about Technic, and we could trade leaks for critiques! :laugh:

To be fair, the company that most copies Lego is Lego itself, I mean do we really need a full grid of F1 cars in every single theme?

I'm curious as to if/when the general public will get burnt out by all the cars, or if we'll still be here ten years from now

I'd consider myself closer to the general technic audience than the other people I see on here - I dont have much enthusiasm for construction sets, at the price Lego sells them for. But I think the general technic audience will never get tired of cars, because the group will change, new customers come and old customers move on to other expensive display items. So sadly, I don't see Lego moving away from cars in technic.

Releasing cars for years after years is not a problem either, specially considering the new customers come old customers go movement. It's feels like they all seem so much the same! When MOC designers (and companies) at least tried different steering angles, suspension setup, RC, and ride height adjustments Lego™ seem to play all safe and sound for all the recent years

Just look at these terrible Corvette and Supra!:wacko: In the summer, judging by the prices and the number of parts, we can expect several more sets of this format.:hmpf_bad: It would be better to produce some kind of excavator or combine harvester with motors. And speaking of engines, are any electrics expected this year at all, other than the flagship kit?

42211 TBC    $99.99   

42212 TBC    $59.99   897 pcs

42213 TBC    $59.99   943 pcs

42214 TBC    $179.99     

42215 TBC    2359 pcs   18+

Then the question would be which of these sets will be the demolition excavator. 42212 and 42213 are obviously cars so they don't count. A demolition excavator isn't something with high display value so my guess is 42214.

Well that is also possible (that is why I used question mark)
