AVCampos Posted March 19 Posted March 19 (edited) New angle connector in the new Botanicals 10347. It looks like the "2/3 snowflake" connector that appeared in the Corvette, with one of the axle holes chopped off: Edited March 19 by AVCampos Fixed broken image Quote

thekoRngear Posted March 21 Posted March 21 This is an Ideas set review by RB. All the technical functions in this set look much more exciting than the most recent Technic labelled cars released so far. After the Ornithoptre this set impresses me most in terms of Non-Technic Lego sets. Quote

For a while now there has been lots and lots of great Technic sets that are not labelled as Technic while vast majority of the sets with Technic label are technically dull and uninteresting... Quote

It does seem that both have converged towards the same thing - aesthetically interesting sets with just a couple mechanical functions. Save for very few large sets, Technic just seems to be an excuse to use a different building system. What's the point? Cram in more functions, start doing smaller pneumatic sets again, do more linkages, more suspension systems, ditch the encoder electronics and use stepper mechanisms (since that's all you ended up using the encoders for anyway...). It could be so much better if the small sets weren't just shoveling tarted up dross out the door. Quote
Maaboo the Witch Posted March 25 Posted March 25 Just built the combine harvester from the latest Technic magazine, and the yellow parts are actually flame-yellowish orange! Looks like a CAT Lexion. Quote
Auroralampinen Posted March 29 Posted March 29 Hmm i started to wonder maybe the june volvo loader chassis will be really similar to the skidder and this reusing of chassis is not that rare like 42096 and 42125 reused slightly the 42077 chassis:) Quote

Auroralampinen Posted March 29 Posted March 29 Here is 42209 dimensions found on galaxus it And here is 42210 dimensions found on same website:) Quote

It has 973 pieces...or is it made like this years dump truck - hollow? ...it is BTW the most interesting set for me this year... Edited March 29 by 1gor Quote
Maaboo the Witch Posted March 29 Posted March 29 If those measurements are for the model itself, then I think the length and height are the wrong way round. Quote
Stereo Posted March 29 Posted March 29 (edited) That makes it a pretty small set, in comparison 42144 Material Handler is $150, 1400g, 835 pieces. 42173 Koenigsegg Jesko is $50, 995g, 801 pieces. Maybe it has a single pneumatic function making the price higher but not to the extent of the Material Handler? Or they realized the Handler was overpriced by at least $50 and reined it in a bit.

Jockos Posted March 29 Posted March 29 Something's not right here... only 2 dimensions and none of them makes any sense for me... even if they are swapped The sets can't have these sizes with the weights. Quote

Jockos Posted March 30 Posted March 30 (edited) As 42210 can be the same scale as 42154 I checked 42154's sizes on Brickset and 28.2 was present there, too. So these numbers are only box sizes. Which is good. Edited March 30 by Jockos Quote

Auroralampinen Posted March 30 Posted March 30 Wow its soo cool to see advancement in city stuff this summer city bulldozer will have straight 3 engine:) Quote
dhc6twinotter Posted March 30 Posted March 30 The City constructions sets over the last couple years has been really impressive. I’ve had more interest in those than I have most Technic sets lately. Quote

I wonder if 42213 Ford Bronco SUV can compete. Nice find @Auroralampinen! Quote
