I find it really funny that although the panel palette is expanding, the new parts will only appear in 1 set and will not reappear for a very long time. Examples: - 2019: Shell Panel 3x11 10 holes in Orange. It has only appeared in Corvette so far. - 2020: Tapered 5x11 in Orange. It has only appeared in the Osprey and we all know how it goes.

Technic 2021 Set Discussion
Ngoc Nguyen replied to LvdH's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
The closest precedent to this type of set at this price point is 42029. At 100$ or 90 EUR, this set comes with 1063 pieces. That set also use the same rims. And that set doesn't have any fancy function nor the space for it. So it's likely that this set will be similar. -
General Part Discussion

I contacted TLG for replacement of that part and it was probably the first time in 4-5 years that I ordered replacement part. Not only my order was canceled but my account was also banned from making further orders in the future. The email said it was not a decision TLG took lightly but it felt like an automatic response. No actual reason was given. I'm still a bit bitter about that.- 5,513 replies

[MOC] Mini Off-Road Crane
Ngoc Nguyen replied to weavil's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Good day sir. May I suggest the term "shrunk" instead? -
I've just added a Manual version, so that people that can't buy the dumb battery box or don't want to can build this model as well. The spinning function is controlled by a knob in the back. That means this model doesn't have a battery box and a motor. Because of that, the interior has been completely redesigned. The appearance and proportions doesn't change, but the inside is different. Therefore this version has a completely different part list and is listed as a separate model. https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-79220/nguyengiangoc/42113-b-model-boeing-chinook-ch-47-manual/

If the Zetros is any indication, a potentially underwhelming product with a potentially overwhelming price is the most likely end for the CAT. -

The Tow Truck looks the same. Only the stickers change. -

The battery box is being sold as a separate set, so that may count as supplementary.
