  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. The rear mudguard in the real life car has the Ford logo, and apparently that in the model also has the Ford logo. I hope it's not printed,
  4. I think Milan worked on this set. He designed similar sets for this price point in the past: 42069, 42110.
  5. 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.
  6. Good day sir. May I suggest the term "shrunk" instead?
  7. 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/
  8. If the Zetros is any indication, a potentially underwhelming product with a potentially overwhelming price is the most likely end for the CAT.
  9. Because they are scheduled for the October release.
  10. The Tow Truck looks the same. Only the stickers change.
  11. Am I the only one who keeps reading the brand name into Porcelain
  12. How did Milan get accepted, I wonder? As far as I know, before working for TLG he was an English teacher with apparently no engineering or design background.
  13. It's 11L. The lifting arm only connects to that lift arm at 1 hole in the middle.
  14. The battery box is being sold as a separate set, so that may count as supplementary.
  15. That's because the rear wheels in the previous leak are more compressed or mounted closer to the bed.
  16. Finally the thread name is changed! Our collective wish has been heard! Praise the Lord! (Or the admins) (/' ')/ \(' ')/ \(' '\)
  17. This set is a trove of treasure for Technic fans - 4 manual functions - 3 pneumatic functions - 4+ mini LAs - 3 cylinders + 3 valves + 1 pump - 1 gear rack - 1 turntable Imagine all the possibilities for B models!
  18. There are probably two on the other side, on both sides of the outriggers.
  19. Yes it is. And the set seems to have TWO of them.
  20. You wont be sold then, because the retail price is 300 EUR.
  21. I like this new one. Esp the bricky F4-The-Thing-ish on the side
  22. Casual civilian truck with a bed that papa used to drive around with
  23. Photos from Zusammengebaut To be fair there's no mention of a Trial Truck anywhere in the official name.
  24. Apparently this is the inspiration for this set:
