  1. If they made them in purple and lime green, they could say it's another collab with Hasbro, call them Constructicons, and post somewhere instructions on how to use the combined parts to build a tiny Devastator.
  2. A 4L pin would be at the top of my list.
  3. I'm looking forward to those: if anything, at the very least they're a welcome variation from all the licensed cars.
  4. I'd expect them to cost the same as the CMFs and the blind-bag F1s.
  5. Actually, a stud is 5 mm in diameter. A brick, or module if talking about studless, is what's 8 mm in width. But yes, I know that, when people refer to studs as a unit of measure, they mean bricks/modules, so your answer isn't wrong.
  6. Yeah, I can imagine buckets of those left ripped open in the supermarket.
  7. Collectible minifigsmodels and a celebratory set aren't mutually exclusive... I hope.
  8. I feel those are one year early: they would've been a quirky (but hopefully not the only one) celebration of Technic's 50th anniversary in 2027.
  9. The image does say that it's not the final artwork.
  10. Actually, the first CTG member was released before the actual CT: 1 of January for 42093, 1 of August for 42098. Therefore the numbers mean even less.
  11. It could be interesting, but what about mechanical functions? IIRC the Tumbler has a boat-style throttle, which hints at no gearbox (turbine used only to power electric motor?), so that leaves us with steering, suspension, and the "auxiliary" functions of movable cockpit, ailerons and pop-up weapons... unless they were able to somehow implement the motorcycle eject function. Now that would be neat.
  12. Interesting, a Speed Champions motorcycle. Now there's something LEGO never tried out.
  13. Is this the first Technic car with a multicylinder transverse engine?
  14. I wonder what colour scheme will the GT40 have? I'd love it to be the Gulf livery, but the Mk. II didn't sport that.
  15. If it can run Android 9, it should be new enough for BC2: I have phones that are way older have earlier Android versions, and they work. The issue may be with the MK hubs not being compatible, either by design or due to some hardware revision that made them incompatible (I don't have any myself to try out), or, less likely, there's something wrong with your phone. Have you tried connecting to some other kind of hub, such as SBrick, BuWizz or one of LEGO's PU hubs?
  16. I don't think we'll ever see intentionally "wear-down-able" parts in an official model, at least friction-based brakes. Electric brakes, implemented by shorting the terminals of an electric motor, have been done for ages in MINDSTORMS, at least since the RCX era with the "Brake" motor mode. But, obviously, that can only be done in motorised models.
  17. At https://github.com/vicocz/brickcontroller2/releases, scroll down to "Assets", expand it, and you should have there a link to an APK.
  18. Regrettably, development on BC2 has stopped, so I doubt you'll see that feature implemented there. On the bright side, there are two "unofficial" forks of it available for download, that are still maintained and perhaps may support that, either presently or in a future update. They're discussed somewhere in this thread, but unfortunately I don't remember what's different between them or how can they be downloaded; perhaps their authors can chime in?
  19. In that case, isn't the name of the system that began with WeDo 2.0 actually LPF2?
  20. My concern with motors is the power draw: either each one is a large unit with its own battery that has to be independently charged, or we go with separate motors and power like TLG has been doing for decades.
  21. You mean the drawings on Technicopedia? Most likely LDraw for modelling and POV-Ray for rendering.
  22. IMO 42209 is already an excellent candidate for that: it's a great pack of all kinds of parts, with the only slightly less versatile part being the bucket.
