    The 42081 is a prime candidate for official PF upgradeability, potentially PF 2.0.

    I'd say it's a good thing. It prevents (or, more realistically, delays) copycat companies from copycatting the set, while from our (fans) perspective it changes nothing to when we're able to lay our hands in it. The only (subjective) disadvantage is that we see its details later.

    There's also the possibility of new colours not yet available at the time the image was made and thus "placeholder" colours were used, like was the case with the small panels on the sides of the 42008.

    Grohl did put his initials in this year's dozer compactor...

    Actually, we have a rubbish truck since 1992, with the 8868-B. Even earlier if you count one of the 8020's models as a rubbish truck (the one in the bottom middle):

    They'd only do those if they're able to reuse them on other sets; take for example the Volvo bucket or the Xerion tyre. The Porsche's rims are the exception, due to them needing that design for the set and being too specific for reusing.
  8. AVCampos
    That's not very indicative, as the Porsche contains some black panels, yet the body is orange.
  9. AVCampos
    That's B-models for you.

    It's orange, so it's not a bag; it's a MAN'S TOOLBOX.
  12. AVCampos
    Either that or many tiny System elements for brick-built detailing.

    Also, the new design makes it trivial to attach to a PF servo, although the servo probably has a too large range of motion.

    ^-- this. While it's true that the "dark ages" of Technic happened when practically all sets were "futuristic" and hardly resembled anything we know (what the heck is the 8446 supposed to be?), but a weird set sprinkled here and there keeps the theme interesting.

    It might be worth it for building techniques, Xerion tyres (if you missed the 42054 and the 42070), and Volvo bucket. Also, until we have an inventory of it, we don't know how good of a new parts pack it is; for example, the 42054 is a gold mine of new (for 2016) parts.

    Can you use the gamepad with a tester app (there are plenty of those in the Play Store)? If not, then the problem is in the gamepad (or the phone).

    Cool, finally they arrived! By the way, what does the pug think of the hamsters?

    The 41999 has a tan interior (sorta).
  19. AVCampos
    There's also the rumoured Volvo. Yes, 75878.

    A starting point could be "what kind of machine is licensed, is not a car, and has the potential to be complex enough to be a flagship?"
  21. AVCampos
    It's not surprising if the new design will be required in a future set, not necessarily from this year. An example is the wheel that would one day be used on the 8880, with its then-mysterious slots near its axle hole.
  22. AVCampos
    Either way, the fact that the image is blacked out does support the "licensed set" hypothesis, car or not.
  23. AVCampos
    For consistency across their product range. For example, to be able to use a Boost hub to build an automated train.
  24. AVCampos
    Yeah, as much as it goes against my hopes, I'm also on the 3x5 dogbone and Bluetooth receiver (instead of Wi-Fi or 2.4 GHz) camps.

    PF 2.0 uses a different connector, so unless TLG (or a third-party) makes an adapter, it won't work with old motors.
