[NV Lego technic]

Air Jacks! So 4 pneumatic pistons or just a gear wheel and some axles?  This feature needs to be fast to simulate a racing pit stop. so fingers crossed for pneumatics

I bet these 'air jacks' will be similar to 8143

Here is the first 2026 technic set reveal:). 

 

[Auroralampinen]

Here is the 42218 description:). 

Meet the coolest machine in the forest with this LEGO Technic 42218 John Deere 1470H Wheeled Harvester Set! Discover intuitive instructions in the LEGO Builder app, where builders can zoom in and rotate models in 3D, track their progress and save sets as they develop new skills. The construction vehicle comes with lots of features to delight young John Deere fans. Check out the boom that rotates 180 degrees. Then it's time for action as kids open and close the claw to grab, lift and lower the log. This STEM toy also features rocker suspension and articulated steering for kids to test out. With its eye-catching John Deere green, black and yellow colour scheme, this set is a fun toy that kids can play with time and time again.

And here is the 42221 description:). 

Begin a journey of discovery with this LEGO Technic 42221 NASA Artemis Space Launch System Rocket Set! Make the creative experience even more engaging with the LEGO Builder app, where kids can get digital 3D views of the buildable toy model during construction, save sets and track their progress. This educational LEGO Technic set shows the moment a rocket launches, in 3 distinct stages. Turn the crank to see the solid rocket boosters separate from the core stage, which then also detaches. Continue turning to watch the upper stage with its engine module, Orion spacecraft and launch abort system separate. This rocket building kit has been developed in collaboration with NASA and ESA, and lets kids explore the space launch system that will launch the Orion spacecraft into lunar orbit. It includes 4 astronaut nanofigures, fun blue flame details, plus an information panel to create an eye-catching display.

Ok, now my interest has peaked for the 42221:). 

And finally the 42221 will brought back technic sets with figures. Yayyy:).

@Auroralampinen Keep your expectations very low when it comes to LEGO Technic. If there is a license on it it will be mediocre at best.

Yeah. I do. Because pantasy for example has impressed me so much. Like with the craft brewery. It has fully working production line. With a bucket load of technic gears and axles and tracks for the working conveyor belt for the bottles:). 

[Auroralampinen]

Here is 42219 measurements:). 

The monster truck measures 11 cm high, 18 cm long and 11 cm wide. 

And here is the 42220 measurements :). 

The monster truck measures 12 cm high, 19 cm long and 11 cm wide.

 

[Timorzelorzworz]

We got the 42130 BMW Motorcycle in january 2022, then the 42159 Yamaha in summer 2023 and now the 42202 Ducati in january 2025. 

If the series continues, we see the 4th 1:5 Motorcycle in summer 2026. Launch for 2026 looks very similar to 2022, with 1:8 Formula 1 (42228 for march) + probably new 1:5 Motorcycle + 1:8 Hypercar. 2022 was the only year where there was all these 3 kind of models launched together.

Launch cycle for the 1:5 bikes is 18 months, for the 1:8 Hypercars 24 months. 2022 and 2026 are the only years where both models are possibly launched together.

It is highlighted much in every description. I've a strange feeling that Lego starts to skip physical printed instructions and goes for digital building only, starting with the smaller sets.

Yeah That's really sad:(.

When i get a building set. I don't want get any digital instructions, because i want to be offline when im building. But hey if lego goes all digital. Kids will have a lot of distractions on their phone, so they will enjoy and having much better time watching a lot of brainrot content than building the lego set. So this again proofs the point that lego isin't for kids anymore:). 

[Timorzelorzworz]

True that. Going away from traditional stuff more into digital world happend for TLG in the end of the 90s to the beginning of 2000. We know how this story ended.

I wonder what colour scheme will the GT40 have? I'd love it to be the Gulf livery, but the Mk. II didn't sport that.

[Timorzelorzworz]

I expect the Jeep Wrangler Rubicon to be regular blue.

The 42228 is the boring 1:8 Formula 1 car

[Jockos]

I can't imagine what would be the $10 difference between a 'simple' 1:16 car and an 18+ 1:16 one... black box, okay, but regarding building..?

This would be really sad direction that profoundly changes the building experience for Lego sets, and not for the better. I really hope they won't go there, at least for anything beside maybe the very smallest of sets.

[Satisfied]

Is the brick-built version made of bricks？
