This one!

 

[TeamThrifty]

I think it was a different one, but exactly that idea!! I was blown away by the concept when i was very young... i still remember how it made me feel!! 

[Cardboy]

My first set and my parents bought me the ideas book to go with it it would be another 5 years till I had enough parts to build anything in the book

[Aerolight]

there is also a "printer" in the ideas book that uses the same system but with chain in a loop, works surprisingly well

Ninjago box leaks have just appeared. I suspect Technic one may surface soon.

Ninjago box leaks is not new, it’s been awhile already, as well as the creator expert & creator 3-in-1

 

I remember there was a rumor from brick fanatics that this year we gonna get a Dodge Charger, but it’s not sure whether in creator expert or technic theme.

So since the next creator expert vehicle was leaked and it is not Dodge Charger.

You know what i means. :)

The Charger will be the Fast & Furious Technic car we're supposedly getting

[Jaromir]

We will probably find out in March, the soonest.

no new news?

[Jaromir]

@Homersapien No, I assume, otherwise we would see here a huge discussion. I think Lego only presented two sets from Star Wars, sets from minions and minifigures series 20. Give them about 2 weeks time, I think we should get something then :)

Was the booth the same surface area as an Ikea coffee table? Seems like they didn´t take the NY fair very seriously in terms of showing any new products. Maybe they had a hand luggage only allowance.

[Aerolight]

Quite the opposite Lego's booth (one of if not the biggest there) was huge they had most of the sets they currently produce - they had every single technic set, just nothing new.

Don't look at me. Still waiting on that cement mixer...

So maybe they just kept last year´s exhibition lots in storage and brought them out again.

[Jaromir]

So how does the picture of Volvo leaked? Was it at sneak pic or Lego allowed to take a picture of it?

[Dylan M]

...there's no such thing as "Leak" image  only a Marketing Strategy...?

It was at Nuremberg.

[Jaromir]

Yes, I know. It has been on the forum for a while, where NY toy fair was last weekend :p

[Maaboo the Witch]

Odd that TLG would show off the 'flagship' (yes, I am using the most inverted of commas for that one), but not the smaller, less prominent sets. Unless this cement mixer is something really special...

The Countach, on the other hand, would be a lot easier to faithfully reproduce using Technic panels.

Hello, have you built or have a Countach Technic?
Thanks

[AVCampos]

No, but I remember seeing a few out there on the net. They should be easy to find with a Google Search.

Here is my favorite

...but 2020 will definitely be new model and (unfortunately) not legendary Miura or Countach
