The only things left unknown are these, right?

- 42214 TBC    $179.99     

- 42215 TBC    2359 pcs   18+

Plz, Lego let them be anything but cars!

*Edit: The "18+" addition on the 42215 is highly likely added to a car or bike...

*Edit of the edit: @Ngoc Nguyen proved me wrong :D

Yeah, pls not be a car. But I have a feeling that 42214 will be 1:10 car

Or a CAT D11 or a Liebherr LR 13000...

That frankenstein connector looks really cool, I hope it's 60° and I hope they release other connectors with 60° or 120° angles as structures with three- or sixfold symmetry are currently quite difficult to make in Technic.

I still want 108' connector.

One of them should be a "demolition" excavator.

42214 1135 pieces 179.99 EUR

42215 2359 pieces 399.99 EUR 18+

The demolition excavator is probably 42215.

42214 has the same price as 42176 Porsche and the former has 300 more pieces, so I guess it's another car that uses the new 2-in1 hub+motor.

Sounds like another nothing-burger of a year for this theme.

Man, Technic is in the toilet.

I ABSOLUTELY AGREE!

Well i have started to thinking about the bronco since it has 943pcs compared to jeeps 665pcs maybe and hopefully lego is using in the bronco the same suspension as on the icons land rover and i hope the bronco don't have just 2 gears as in the jeep and the same suspension as in the jeep

Another wave of cars???

Where are :

- bigger agriculture machines like 42054?

- backhoe loader?

- telehandler?

In my opinion there are too many cars in the Technic line-up.

Just sayin...;-)

Where is old, good technic with various models in yearly line-up where everyone finds something for them??

Yeah, I know that cars sell good but....

Have a nice day to All of You :-)

Being a car guy, I'm like "Yay more cars!" but I'm also like "I got nowhere to put them all" so in summary, even though I'm a car guy, a few less would be good just to save me money and a headache.

Even though the construction/farming etc doesn't really interest me I do like to see what they come up with. Plus I do feel for all you guys that want more of those kind of sets

Yeah, of course for You and those who are cars guys it is ok :-) 

That's why I wrote that everyone finds something for them.

More diverse line-up would be good move:-)

Ah I just re-read the last pages with this rumour from Nuremberg. Hmm kind of uninspiring actually, as we had the 42144. 42146 and an excavator in the 42175. 

This seem super expensive again, even when it's all electric...

Oh how I wished 42215 was a JCB Backhoe... maybe next year

I know a recent JCB Backhoe MOC that might interest you :wink:

399 euros for 2300+ pieces... It is way less compared with 42146 679 euros. So perhaps only one Hub. On the other hand, Cat dozer had one hub but 1500 pieces more. I have mixed emotions about the 42215

For 399.99 EUR and 2300 pieces, I think there will be one hub and four motors, and they will be arranged in the format of 8043. One motor will be for switch, and the other 3 motors drive 6 functions.

Would be strange in my opinion. Switching from drive-mode (1 motor per track) to work-mode is maybe feasable. But for  the action we would need:

- turntable action
- main boom
- second stage boom
- gripper actuation
+ maybe gripper tilt

If this comes with a wrecking ball instead, it would be sufficient, but I wouldn't call it an excavator then...

Considering due to rotary catch with 2 motor can active 4 function I thought new excavator use rotary catch for function changer.

Than we can have 4 motor, 1 for catch, 3 for max 12 function.

And if this is real, it will be gear monster set after 42009 and 42082.

Drive mode has 3 functions: Individual tracks and turntable. Work mode can have 3 functions too: main boom, second stage boom, gripper.

Well, TLG seemed to think that 42006 was an excavator.

On the other hand, why it can't have two new hubs for 399 euros if one hub+900 parts is 179 euros (porsche)? 42146 initial price was 449 euros, but after delays it went up to 679 (size and rnd tax perhaps).

The 400 euro price is quite encouraging to me. It's surely motorised for that price. At the same time, I don't see them doing something so similar to 42100, which is also a flagship, and not very old. I'm hopeful that this means there's something new coming, not a reheat of what we've already seen before, but something hopefully more authentic.

Because the hub in the Porsche is actually 1 hub and 2 motors in one block. Since it's a dedicated hub for cars I'm not sure it will be used for an excavator, especially when its charging port is placed rather awkwardly.
