The Volvo was revealed to be 70 GBP, which is approximately 91 EUR and 100 USD. I'd expect 5 pneumatic cylinders because the real one has 5.

That's the ultimate car-rane.

I'm still a bit appalled by the fact that Xerion has a crane. Everything has a crane. First Unimog, then Arocs, now Xerion. I wouldn't be surprised if one day Lego made a car or a front loader with a crane. If you like it then you should have put a crane on it (~' ')~

Or maybe it's a trick to push the part count limit.

Confident Emmi is confident.

Or perhaps we will get 2 trenchers as the B-model: one with the bucket wheel, one with tracked digger.

I think to demonstrate the bucket wheel function, there must be enough bricks to fill a small box, so that the bucket wheel can come down and swoop them.

I wouldn't be surprised if 200-300 of the 3000 pieces turn out to be Lego dirt blocks which helps the BWE demonstrates its function (like the 8 water blocks in the Fire Plane).

Regarding the Xerion Claas, Beyonce made a prediction in 2008: If you like it then you should have put a crane on it.

Claas come with a crane at the back? Is it a Unimog clone?

Claas Xerion has 4 wheels of the same size, and B-model has to use those 4 wheel of the same size, while Class Axion has bigger rear wheels and smaller front wheels. So it's not possible.

I think BWE uses at least 1 XL motor. Moving tracks, moving boom, moving bucket wheel are all heavy tasks. My bet is a trench digger. It can utilize the whole bucket wheel and conveyor belts. or this

Brick Fanatics reported that BWE: 179.99 £ , Car: 249.99 £ . Promo Brick cite Brick Fanatics as source, however reported that BWE: 249.99 £ , Car: 179.99 £. I think Promo Brick made some mistakes while typing, probably because of excitement.

Every year since 2010 only 2 sets come ready with Power Function, so I guess Xerion will be PF-upgradable. Volvo wouldn't have Power Function, which probably means it'll have a hand pump. If so probably Volvo wouldn't need PF at all and wouldn't be PF-upgradable.

At least we have solid information related to Volvo and Xerion already. A pneumatic 70 EUR set. I think it probably has a manual pump and wheels of 42024. What a shame, really. I've always wanted a big, complex wheel excavator to complement the 8043.

Poor MB Arocs, enjoying the status of largest Technic set by piece for only 1 year, while Unimog and Mobile Crane did for 2 years.

Do you mean pins and connectors of all sorts?

Lego's really pushing the part count limit aren't they? - 2011: Unimog, 2100 pcs - 2013: Mobile Crane, 2600 pcs - 2015: MB Arocs, 2800 pcs - 2016: BWE 3000 pcs I used to think it's not until 2017 that we see a new limit, but it comes sooner than I thought.

I have an idea about Volvo EW160E: What if the motor and batter box are placed under the turntable? The switches will be between the front and rear wheels, and on both side. There are 4 functions: outriggers, front dozer blade, rotating the turntable, and one axle for the things above the turntable. Then the axle will be connected to a pump or a bunch of other gears to control the arm.

10195 kilometers to London, 9491 kilometers to Nuremberg (from Vietnam).

And we already have a white-orange set this year (Helicopter).

Ondra, do you have anything to say with us *serious voice, serious gaze*

*open Google* *look at 911 GT3 RS pictures* *look at my 8070 Supercar on the shelf* Probably nope then.

Helicopter B model instruction is out.
