Outdoors02 Posted December 1 Posted December 1 I personally will wait for the 42218 harvester and 30736 seaplane, already have the 42132 motorcycle from 2022 so 42225 is quite redundant to me. Quote

That harvester gonna be like the mini backhoe - with a free rotating arm, and i suppose the steering will be the only function Quote

pleegwat Posted December 1 Posted December 1 I expect these sets are aimed at children who are too young to own the previous versions. Quote

Good point, we can't be too harsh on the little sets. They're (primarily) meant to be gifted for birthdays and Christmas. In a sense they're the ones carrying the spirit of Lego as a toy first and foremost. Quote
Maaboo the Witch Posted December 1 Posted December 1 Though I'm sure we'll find out soon enough, I wonder whether the 1470H is gonna be the six-wheeled version, or the eight-wheeler. Quote

Just white and red. I haven't checked how identical the builds are, but they are not far. Quote

The 8-wheeler looks similar to 42080. But the 6-wheeler has multiple wheel sizes which TLG tends to avoid. Quote

Not unlike how 42225 is a essentially a yellow-orange reskin of 42132 from 2022 - I don't think that kids will mind, and personally I will admit that 42225 has the advantage of having the attached pistons (part number #6452846) and crank discs (#6452845) as opposed to detached pistons and cams (#4211483 and #4210759 respectively).

I like 42218. It has a strong Technic feel from the past era, and the rest is not very interesting Quote

Next year is an even numbered year without engineering flagship, with only a 1-8 supercar. 2027 happens to be the 50th anniversary, and odd numbered years are engineering flagship. I don't know what the 50th anniversary of 2027 will bring, but I hope there won't be more cars and we can return to the essence of technic Quote
Auroralampinen Posted December 2 Author Posted December 2 (edited) Ok, i have now seen all the city sets. And couple of dreamzzz sets. It's really depressing to see technic slowly dying while other themes technic style sets thriving. Like this scorpion digger would be soo cool as an technic set:). And city has new tractor tires:). And turntable rotation functions with gear:). Why technic has lost it's creativy and functions for cars. I really wish we could see racers line rise up from the ashes and take the technic car sets out of the technic line up:). Wait nooo. The city fire truck has a steering🙀 Ok, i have to buy bunch of city sets and that dreamzzz set. Im really curious how that steering system is done in the fire truck:). The city rescue helicopter seemingly has a button operated winch🤯 Ok, how this happened why technic is loosing it's spirit while in other themes the spirit is thriving:).

SNIPE Posted December 2 Posted December 2 I wonder what 42228 will be (it's the largest 1h set) Quote
