at :0:17 LED cables going down from the headlight 0:31 some grey block can be seen just before the front suspension 0:35 you can see the "head" of standard engine block (boxer type configuration) 0:37 what is this orange part behind the driver seat near the frame ? regards

About suspension : the red shock absorbers were spotted, those?

that what I was thinking a part to my self -thanks

question as I did not seen it been placed here, or correct me if I am wrong - but what the MKIII stands for ?

does anyone has pictures of Volvo ?

I think that the stabilizer and blade will be mechanically controlled - Arm and bucket will be pneumaticsCounting down the time :)

did you noticed that the barrel from the Mine Loader, it has 3 pin holes and if you "break" it in half you will have a kind of bucket - those 3 pin holes they early match the 2 pin holes on the new tracks...

we have seen it for the H1 but looks like the H2 is really well kept in secret .... counting hours to see the first pictures :) :)

it did too I have the "original" one and it shakes like Shakira .... ;)

I hope at least they will add the mini-pomp in to the set as it was made back with 8049 so you can make the compressor by adding your own PF. Hope so.... but last cost cutting trend is telling me that it may not be the case.... Regards

how long do we will wait till some leak photos will be on the internet ?

me too, by the way if Volvo is supposed to be with pneumatics, then how many it will have? Also of which kind, definitely the V2 system. And I do hope that it will not have the B model but will allow builder to made different combinations as in real-life one .About the tractor, well what revolutionary Lego can do in it ? I d not have any wonder list on the IP Car as it is too expensive for me... but it will de indeed a good asset for others.. :)

The best thing about the 8865 set was the fact that it was very sophisticated back then when they made it - by the way, does any one knows who design it? Also another great thing of it was that it was very hard made - what I mean by that - due to the multiple use of Technic Bricks they made it very strong - as I said my 2 year old son sit on it and it survived! Try to do that with new sets ... they have a tendency to bend... One day I will buy it again that is for sure. Regards

oooo! it seems to be "far far away" for most of us here :) :laugh:

A strange (most likely printing error) but in Polish catalog it says that 42052 comes with Large Motor :)

I got the 8865 like two years ago (finally I had it) and it did came with the old pins - nightmare to remove them ! But the thing about old sets is - they were pretty hard to break! My one year old son back then sit on it , throw it , my wife throw it from the 1st floor - it survived all ! I was amazed how strong it was. Now I exchange it fro 8868. But I have great memories of this set It will me for ever one of the most iconic sets of all time - and the sound of that V4 engine !

simple : the BWE is suppose to target the German market in special the "express yourself" a custom (pretty) pickup the USA market (where such cars are very popular) a proper V8 custom rims etc... The rest of the World will have to "live" with Volvo and Claas :) :)

How far it to the Toys Fair ? It is on 27th ? Hope that some leak pictures will be sooner ! :)

desert752 do you have in your collection for example 42028 or 42038 and if so could you test how the tracks work on non-motor set ? I have 42028 that my 3 year son plays most and the smooth surfice kills all play.... thanks for sharing by the way !

+2

Predicting what will we have is like winning the lottery :) :)

About Volvo is that in my opinion it will use the new pneumatic system as there would be no point to have them developed only for the Mercedes purpose - as most sets in the future would use them. Regards

that is true. It had two large pneumatics one large pump and small pump to use wit PF. I gave thus set and it is a wonder for such price range.

WOW it does look like an official set ! Well Done ! My favorite so far

When the Toy Fair starts so that we could see the first photos ? Is it on the 27th ? With regards to the Volvo - we know that the price is getting higher once they add PF into the set. So if the Pneumatic V2 is added without motor (medium i.e.) it could still be at the reasonable price. Remember that the licence costs... so without count of parts we do not know what size of the model will be... I truly hope I will be worth to buy and play with it. Claas - well we did had in the past tractors that were costly due to parts been used in it. I could be a mechanical wonder. BWE - I do not like the kind of machine (real one) OK it does look impressive due to it size - but in terms of Lego set it will be (could be) a good source of parts - it could be size match to the current Mobile Crane :) All above are my speculations only as I do not have any source of seen them Regards
