Over on TechnicBRICKS, Conchas (Fernando Correia) wrote this article about the 1H2013 Lego Technic sets.

Never seen an articulated backhoe before. This year is not very impressive IMO, with exception of the dirtbike and F1 car.

[Meatman]

Finally some pictures. I like the 42006 and of course the Formula One car. The motorcycle looks a bit like the lime green dirt bike that came out a few years ago. Not caring a whole lot about the pull back race cars though.

I also see new 2x5 blue panel in 42010 set.

[Pat-Ard]

Is see those panels on the F1 racer and the dirt bike, too. They look like 2x5... Oh, I need alot of those dirt bikes... I love orange panels.

If you Google articulated backhoe, you'll see, that actually there are few.

I am not a fan of the hander b models fork attachment design.

Alasdair: you're right the b is a little bit disappointing... And it's sad that the scale won't fit the 8043...

[z3_2drive]

interesting- I think 2013's pretty cool, and the f1 b model reminds me of the silver champion b-model, another race truck with independent suspension I like the new hubs because they can be used with liftarms instead of wishbones(you can see them in the truck)

[Pedro Antunes]

Other than the F1 all the remaining sets dont appeal to me at all... not complex enough and no sign of PF.

They sure look appeling to kids with the pullback motion, which I think puts Lego down a level (the pullback thing).

[Meatman]

I wonder what the B model for the F1 car will be?

[timslegos]

, that is not a very attractive looking truck. What was Lego thinking?

IMHO it looks more dangerous than 9398's alternative truck...

[DLuders]

That B-Model picture that JunkstyleGio posted looks like some racing semi trucks:

I would agree it does not look very vell thought out.

Mind you thay need to leave room for improvment for Efferman to work his magic...

[Saberwing40k]

Would someone care to explain to me how cypr21 got the little backhoe already?

That's a mystery. But it is the beauty of it. :D

I rather like it, except for the color coordination, but that's hard to do for a b-model of a multicolored set.

[allanp]

I don't normally pay too much attention to the b-model but I like the truck for some reason.

Me too, its awesome!

[Meatman]

That truck is really really cool!

[efferman]

i think the B model of the silverchampion looks much better

improving a B model? why not? Edited October 20, 2012 by efferman
