Well, i don't follow Monster Jam. And i didn't realize that the Sparkle Smash was a unicorn:). So now we will have more new technic colors:). 

[Paul B Technic]

As "Monster Jam Grave Digger Fire And Ice" are two different trucks, it will be interesting to see how they "mash" the two together. 
Fire


Ice

Monster Jam Sparkle Smash - Colours will be interesting...

[msk6003]

Sparkle smash will be use purple version of this wheel (include in 76312) and I hope ice digger introduce blue version.

I would be "disappointed but not surprised" if that was the case...

To be honest I would be surprised if it was all black with stickers. I think that the colour transition is narrow and sudden enough that it's likely they'd only use stickers for the purple portion. The blue and pink are large enough that I'd be surprised if they didn't do those parts with coloured pieces

It will be interesting to see how they make this work.

...with help of magic Lego solution (stickers) here or there... 

[Zerobricks]

I for one can't wait to see purple again! And hopefully some pink too <3

[mahjqa]

Amen.

[Jundis]

Kind of cool that Lego holds on to the Monster Truck theme, can we maybe hope for a bit of suspension for the 30€?

Curious about the other models for 2026, we should get some more info soon :-)

[Paul B Technic]

A large scale grader would be awesome.

I hardly believe we will get something big from heavy duty this year... It now looks like such flagship is coming every second year. Hope I am wrong ! But my guts are telling more cars ! 

[Zerobricks]

Would love to see a large scale monster truck using 8466 - like tires, but that's more suitable for wishlist topic. What's for sure is that we're probably getting a new 1:8 supercar and a 1:5 motorcycle.

I really hope we get some big (not necessarily flagship, but John Deere skidder size) heavy duty sets, as cars are dominating the theme. 

As I'm writing this, two options might be for such rarity in recent years in heavy duty flagships/big sets:

1. Cars are simpler, more popular and nearly unlimited in amount. If we think about it, the same cannot be said for construction/forest/heavy duty vehicles, because after a while the same basic kinds (combine harvesters, bucket wheel excavators, excavators, front loaders, etc) will be repeated. Cars are much easier to sell even though most of them have similar appearances. They have quite a few brands, models and colours to choose from.

2. If TLG releases non-car flagship in the same year as a 1:8 supercar it will affect one another's sales, novelty and such. This way they can make the interests and options last longer.

Just my 2 cents.

If TLG releases non car flagship every year, I would buy new Technic set every year. Now I do it every second year :) I'am not interested in cars at any scale, but... I am also not interested to buy 2300 parts with simple power box for 430 euros. Too hard to justify.  Perhaps time to take a break from purchasing new Lego sets entirely, I don't know...

The 42221 is a 60$ nasa set. Interesting to see what functionality it has:).

You shouldn't count on the suspension of the wheels) Everything will be the same as before. This year, the price has increased to 27.9$

I would like to see a large remote-controlled Monster Truck with new huge wheels!

These go to the wishlist and speculation topic.

Let' keep this topic for the actual information about the 2026 sets.
