Looks like that is printed.

If you zoom in close enough you can see the raised bit where the sticker starts/ends.

Oh, my bad, somehow I thought you meant the headlights?? I can't see sticker lines on the main logo either.

42205 has been spotted in the wild;)

Here is first build and review of this set

[SNIPE]

Only downside is I don't see any pinhole with axle connectors in yellow

Otherwise, very tidy set - will buy.

EDIT: I also wonder if the color inconsistency for yellow has been fixed, the pinhole with pin connectors were  slightly translucent and a lighter yellow then other yellow lego pieces.

I see some progress:

[HorcikDesigns]

This is IMHO the best midscale car so far. It has some flaws (looking at you, rear lights and wobbly side doors), but it is packed with interesting geometry and surprising connections - something similar to Speed Champions sets. Half of the car is built with 0.5 stud offset!

And there are some exciting new parts. 

 

And one followup to the yellow pin in nose comment - it is used intentionally due to tolerances, and I think we probably will say goodbye to LBG frictionless pins in the near future.

Here is overview of the sets

New connector for V engines :)

With 60° between each segment...not typical angle for a V8 (they are usually 90°; 720° is full working cycle for 4 stroke engine devided by Nr.of cylinders gives optimal angle between cylinder banks; in case of V8 it is 90°).

Had to check it's not April 1! Very cool though.

Finally, a set that has the parts for the Rebrickable dude mascot thingy...

[Ngoc Nguyen]

Hi everyone, this is an interruption to the string of F1 reviews from RacingBrick 

 

[Paul B Technic]

I saw this in person this week, not a fan at all. At least last year's had something decent about the looks.

Here is this set in blue color :) 

[Zerobricks]

Why didn't they use the blue half bushes? They are available...

[Maaboo the Witch]

So, here we have one of the dull bloody cars from the August wave before we've seen anything for June.

Yep, par for the course at this point.

Blue or dark azure? Difficult to understand from this picture.

My guess is on light azure. The contrast to the black is too harsh for the color to be normal blue,

I'd love for it to be normal blue! Such a nice color, that isn't used enough. Plus, you can't complain about blue pins on a blue car!

[Aurorasaurus]

If you zoom in under the door you can see a blue pin and its quite a different color to the body. I think it will be one of the azure shades. I'm hoping for dark azure personally.

[msk6003]

New parts in Dark azure - red square

Rare parts in Dark azure - green square

 

I wonder why TLG choose Dark azure for alter color of this set. It is not bad color but bugatti bolide also use Dark azure for alter color. Red, Black or Real blue will be more good.
