  1. That must be a typo, it has only 1642 pieces.
  2. I assume it's the no sidepod version. And it might be similarly designed like the McLaren (last year's colours, new year's body)?
  3. For me this picture is a bit disadvantageous, but I really like the new slick tires and the black panels. At least the red axles should have been black, too. I don't even know what's going on at TLG...
  4. I think there are some sets (42178-81 and 83) which are yet to be revealed, too. Or I hope so.. Nevermind. They are the space sets. :D
  5. I have to say, I'm a bit disappointed. 4 similarly scaled cars are a bit too much, and only 2 of them are new (speaking of model). I expected the rover to have bigger part count for the rumoured $250 price. And the Volvo set...well, they might turn out good, but only one bigger could have been better. I'm curious about the 1:8 car, and the other 2 unnamed which I expect to be C+ sets. All in all, I'll see if they are worth it.
  6. I really like that list, there is hope at least one of them turns out to be true. Although there are rumours the 42165 will be a Merceses Benz pull-back, on brickset another number, 42196, appeared, so that makes me thinking about the huge gap.
  7. I hope, too. I don't know why we get so few and late information this year
  8. I think firstly the globes, and maybe the rings and wheels. They are the only uncommon parts.
  9. I hope we get some info about 2024 summer sets this year... it seems to be a bit calm about leaks.
  10. You are right. It either has to get 2 hubs, and maybe it can become fully remoted and huge, or just simply use a motorized pump, which is enough for all the pneumatic functions.
  11. Of course! Yesterday I searched for last year's summer rumours, and it was on the 27th, so if it comes earlier, it would be greatly appreciated! :)
  12. Thank you for the video. Obi-Wan would like it (from a certain point of view)
  13. I don't think they would miss out on such milking cows; cars always will sell quite well, as we can see the ever-growing number of them. Though you are right, there will be always something they can improve on, e.g. a real convertible car is long overdue.
  14. I wonder if it will have any role in the upcoming 1:8 car's gearbox
  15. Okay, but I don't think many people know it (me neither up until now). And seeing the brand's logo they might not think (or even care) about what the parent company is.
  16. Great that you mention Volvo! We should get one in summer as we usually in every 2 years. So it's quite possible after the Zeux.
  17. I have no clue how they could've been done the counter-rotation without being the header too thick or too wide at this scale. Maybe with some more gears, but again, it might have been out of proportion too much.
  18. I bet we'll get 1 or 2 more compatible sets for summer to go along with these.
  19. Well, at least it has some useful parts, and finally these wheels in a Technic set. What I still don't understand is the use of the blue 3M beam...
  20. The same can be said for 8436, but at least it had 3 different attachments.
  21. The McLaren is a good guess, but I'd rather have it in teal, because with reddish orange it would be too close to Ferrari's red.
  22. The lower left picture has a tilted position, so I bet is has to be tilted, accordingly.
  23. This is the usual form each year, the first half has less exciting sets (more in number, less in pieces), and the second half includes the big ones.
  24. Top Gear's " This is brilliant - But I like this" meme came to my mind when I think about this and the other McLaren. This looks good, but the other just draws my attention better.
  25. Yeah, I just realized that at the bulldozer. It was predictible, I think... I hope they won't leave out the paper instructions in their next move..
