It was this time last April that we were getting blurry pics of the H2 sets at least. I think this is the longest we've waited yet. Are the designers ashamed? Do they think, "ooh, our builds are gonna look like crap next to the mighty Liebherr R9800, let's do all we can to hide them until they ship, then we can hide them behind the 42100 boxes!"?

Exactly. Thus my initial question.  We should have more info by now...

[Jim]

Well, we have seen blurry pics, right? We have even seen clear pics of the Liebherr.

Ummm....nothing from TLG. Thats all i was asking. I thought perhaps we might get something on the fourth of May.

Although i am a longtime AFOL as i have stated several times as i serve overseas i am not nearly as involved in the hobby as i have been in the past. So please forgive the ignorance.

Liebherr wasn't a leak.

Also, official 2H catalog is somewhere around the corner.

[allanp]

The rumoured new SUV planetary gear wheel drive hubs with bearings, larger CV joint and metal gears won't appear in the pictures or the description (for all I know they might not appear in the set either!). So I'm waiting for Jim and Sariels reviews. Hurry up lads!

By now you should probably know that there is no telling when official pics will appear. They will appear when they appear. And TLG recent policy is “as late as possible”

Fan Media Days? 

I know that you are not going this year, but I'm sure that some Technic guys will be there..

[Maaboo the Witch]

I say we Beetlejuice it and say the set number three times. That should work.

42097. 42097. 42097.

...damn.

Just be careful not to upset the wrong people or you might end up with a shrunken head.

Mm-hm. Now, if anyone needs me I'll be grooving on the stairs to Harry Belafonte until we get more info.

More time to save money for it...

According to scut I heard at the Cobblers Brick Show, it's due to TLG having trouble with the CONTROL+ software.
