Technic 2017 Set Discussion

Saber I'm not sure that's a thing Google doesn't seem to return anything about nudging machine jokes

[Gnac]

Maybe I should have posted my other idea instead, which was a Pogo Wagon.

I'm hoping for an industrial nudging machine.

LOL yeah! XD then we can all nudge each other! what a useless and expensive machine that would be in real life! XD

Sooo getting back on topic, I don't know how likely it is that the alternate for 42062 will be a mini mobile crane, unless there'll be a string included for it. But it's pretty nifty how these pneumatic hose guides are used in the grabber part of the reach stacker. I'd really like to see the gear rack & housing re-used in a similarly unexpected way.

Another idea for 42062 B model is a truck with trailer. The trailer has a crane at the bottom that can pick up the two containers. Similar to 42043 B model.

The basic idea is that TLG tends to make B model that uses the same specialized parts of the A model. Since the A model has 10 wheels and the telescoping gear rack, I think of that way.

the telescoping gear rack would be good for a crane though...

I just want the RC tracked racer for the novelty of owning an RC vehicle by TLG.

The  BMW R 1200 GS Adventure Bike  will commemorate 100 years of BMW as a tie-in.

Everybody and their grandmas are celebrating by making Lego sets of their vehicles

Is there any chance we might be getting a BMW car this summer?

Nope. Carry on.

How can you be so sure? We did have the designers state that the Porsche was the first in a line. But, we have nothing to go on for 2H sets, period. Anything talking about them at this point would probably devolve into a wishlist with no basis in reality. So, the possibility is open, but so is the possibility of a space shuttle, or [insert model you really want to see here.]

[Kman860]

I wasn't trying to speculate, I was just wondering if a BMW set was a hint, but I guess getting one 1H actually makes it less likely.

I've just noticed that there's a minifig in the deep-sea vessel in the Searching Ship set. It's been a while for a Technic set to officially include a minifig.

[Saberwing40k]

I'm not seeing it, I think it's more of an optical illusion. What's really disappointing is the sticker windows.

[tomacwhite]

Are the pictures available to view now?

Where do you see it ? In the SubVessel ? I do not think that is a minifig ... but I may be blind :) 

 

Also - can we try to put the list of the new spotted parts in the sets for 2017? I wonder how many there are in fact.

The picture is available in this clip https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yhMSp0RLijI

0:03, in the right margin of the left column. It looks like a minifig in the underwater vessel.

These were already discussed when pictures appeared first. Unless you read all the posts back and spot something new?
