I totally agree that "current" air tank implementation is very lackluster but that is actually reason why I would love to see lego doing something more with it...
So sadly, have to say you are right...:(
-
Only missing thing is air tank ...:( again
-
Damn, this set would be perfect with some kind of optional sensors...just saying. But still I like it is finally something different :D

I bet so. Because where else Lego would use them? Perhaps different color?
About the money...I´m wondering what will be in. Brick-wise it is not so great number, so perhaps functions and motors? -
Love MK II Aquanaut armor! :)

I don't recall any other differences thus I am surprised by the rebrickable inventories.
If you manage to get the faulty actuators it is a cheap fix (buy some new actuator:) compared to the price of the set in a sealed box and it should work with v1 and v2 receivers. Why are you so interested in the version?
I know. It started just out of curiosity for both me and seller. Not saying the difference in parts (price) is so vast but seems it is not so easy to distinguish it and generally I like to know what Im buying.

32 minutes ago, anyUser said:On most technic boxes the production code is printed black letters on (only) one of the sealing tapes. It is (very) difficult to find and read. Older ones have them punched into the box material.
My box has 34M1,
one of the actuators 20X1What kind of 'actuators are we talking about?There is older thread about the issue - With explanation about large linear actuators
Plus according to rebrickable there is difference in items https://rebrickable.com/sets/compare/slow/?1-set=8043-1&2-set=8043-1&1-inv=23672&2-inv=12610
I Will ask seller for pictures of all seals and all sides. He was unable to find anything else there so far..Plus we agreed upon hand to hand trade so it is really not like he is hiding info :)

Yup, I found the same info but according to seller there is nothing more. It is not like he is trying to hide info, he is as well curious about which version he has..

Hi guys, I´m looking into this set and thinking about buying some unoponed ones but how do I say if the set is revised version or not?
I know about this older post
So basically it should be easy if the box is opened and person can inspect parts. But any way to say so just from box outside?

Great scenery! I´m rooting for Aquanauts but they need proper enemies ;-)

Just small note from czech person - it is "Bagr" in czech language and "Bager" in Slovakia Which is totally different bro country ..both former parts of Czechoslovakia just to make things less complicated

Next big crane. Sorry for low effort posting but it looks like super massive built...and ship :D
-
I hope there will be something else than just two large and one small pneu cylinder. Cabin will be most likely manual as with 42053. Arm seems to be with 3 cylinders as 42053...hmm I would like to see something to make it little more unique than 42053 with claws from 42042/42006.

Oh lovely! Pneu set! Still no sign of Air Tank (damn I would love Air Tank again...)

ok, thank you for answer. I will try to search for him, already sent message but it is a few years.

Wanted to add something to my Aquazone collection. Hopefully I got it right. :) Now onto bigger sub and Harverster.

Hi, is there a way to contact inactive person? Would it be for example possible to send email with help of mods? Of course I don´t mean getting contact for myself, just asking if there is any way. Not much else I can try to contact him... :/

On 1/12/2022 at 4:06 AM, Lord Insanity said:As far as Avatar 2 goes I never said I hate Avatar or Cameron. I don't know where that idea is coming from at all. I found Avatar entertaining but completely average. I would rank it higher than Jupiter Ascending but lower than Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets. I have no doubt Avatar 2 will make money but I suspect it will wind up like Lone Ranger and John Carter and waste so much money on marketing that they "didn't make back their budget." After all it can't count on the Titanic fans to come out a watch it like what happened to the first one. I hope I am wrong, a sci-fi movie doing well can only lead to more sci-fi being green lighted by Hollywood after all. Most importantly we would be more likely to get more cool sci-fi Lego sets.
The story is exactly what I was referring to as being "meh whatever". That is what the collective audience did too. Avatar didn't become a modern pop culture icon the way Star Wars or even Terminator did. Considering the marketing campaign for the movie was all about "From the director of Titanic" I absolutely believe it's box office take was directly related to people that would not normally care for sci-fi going to see it because "Titanic". That won't happen with the sequel because the Titanic fans know what it is now. I really do hope I am wrong because I would love to see some quality sci-fi getting Hollywood executives' attention.
Well, it will be interesting if Cameron will be able to make "better" second part (not evens tarting about 3rd, 4th, 5th). I can imagine bigger "water" focus this time and that´s it. Plus the original characters weren´t so interesting. Well we will se soon (TM).

4 hours ago, nerdsforprez said:Its fun to see at least some information regarding new sets. Thanks for posting at least the introductory information.
But not sure what you mean here.. TLG repeats itself all the time. Same machine, with just a little tiny twist on it...
Yup, like I would love to see Ait Tank or something like that. But I doubt we will see another pneu set so short after 42128. :/
-
Just out of curiosity, why we are getting Indiana Jones theme? Did I miss something like new movie? Because the "5" is on hold right? (it is not complain at all! I love the original three films )

These lower are all the entries from lego fan vote for 90th years celebration (in order of how many votes they got) https://ideas.lego.com/blogs/a4ae09b6-0d4c-4307-9da8-3ee9f3d368d6/post/fd5cc3b8-284f-4520-825f-7c3f5e4a50fe
And what I find more curious is, that so far we got 7 sets one for each theme so...Next year we are getting Majisto ..It seems to me to be little pattern..
-We got so far 3 sets per year
-Usually 1-2 biggers and rest smaller ones
-one space theme and one castle at least..
tl dr; with Majisto...I bet we are getting one space set next year :)
(and sorry for probably overthinking it, I was looking into possibility of getting new Aqua set :)
