The Volvo? Nah no chance they'd spend that money on new molds, it's gonna just be the Unimog tyre

well when you look at page 13 ( here ) cab is mostly the same length as tires width...cab width is ( by my calculations) some 1.7 meters wide...so if the real model is some 3.9 meters wide, cab should be 9 - 10 studs wide (real machine is some 3,9 meters wide)

 

actually this post should be in 42114 tread...

I think you would have been disappointed I think that would have been the Top Gear Car looking at the box and the background image

So are pics of the other sets available ? I’m guessing not the Lambo as this will be a special reveal

Yeah, I'm wondering too, I'd LOVE to see a photo of the Osprey set.

this is not a rage against @TeamThrifty, I am just expressing my personal opinion in response to another post.

No problem, didn't take it that way!!

You make a very valid point.. it is different things to different people which does make TLG's job very tricky. Its a balancing act.

[A Great Builder]

I feel this Volvo set should have been released 2 years ago using PF and pneumatics and have 42081 released this year using C+.

So far no PU model had one, so I don't expect this to be different. BUT if does have it, I'd expect something like this:

Well, it may come true: drive + halfframes rotation/steering + dump unloading. The same features, so even don't need to change something in the software.

However, looking on how TLG made the Control+ layouts, controls etc. making any B-model generally may mean making another Control+ profile. Unless it's the same A-Model but differently shaped.

[SNIPE]

I wonder if the new differential will be used as the default differental in future models now.

And if we will ge frame 13 x 15 in black, maybe in the 42115 lambo, since the 7x11 and 9x5 frames come in black already :DDD

According to some "Friend" who's present at Toy Fair :

"......we had our appointment with Lego ,but they make you put your phone in a sealed envelope etc so no photos sadly.

If I remember rightly it was a massive green sports car next to the black vintage looking amazing car from the new fast and furious film 

 

?

The Volvo looks very cool! Fits perfectly with the wheel loader (42030).

Ne pensez-vous pas que les rambardes sont bien trop grossières par rapport à la version originale ? À revoir !

Man, as long as it is actually green and not landrover olive, im happy

 

As for the F&F thing, black and vintage just screams Dom's Charger. Not my first pick from the range, but ill happily take it if its done well (on that note, if they do a charger, i wonder if its hard to colour swap it to the general lee)
