Or they decided to flip the box for some reason. Lego do weird things sometimes. Can you address my other points? Mainly the one where it would take an insane amount of effort fake that picture in such a short amount of time?

That's the biggest issue I'd be worried about here

So is Lego's new marketing strategy Yeah champion now show us the front of the Chiron's box. You'll find that it's pretty much the same as the leak, only instead of a black backdrop it's blue.

@Stewen To fake the Sian, the artist would have had to design: the Sian wheel rim, of which we've only seen one angle of so far. This means they would have had to design an entire 3D model based off one promo shot a brand new curved wheel arch piece a brand new helicopter blade piece that we knew was coming in the tiltrotor anyway a brand new tapered curved panel that we also knew was coming in the tiltrotor THE WHOLE CAR This all would have to happen in the time between the wheel and the leaked photo. Like the moon landing, the effort alone required to actually fake something like this means that it's 100% real. Yeah mate, all the new adult-focused sets are now 18+, and come in minimalist box-art design. The UCS A-Wing, the new haunted house, the Star Wars helmets. 18+ is Lego's new marketing strategy.

Oh god here we go again... Why do you think it's fake, and do you realise that to fake it, the person would have had to actually design a Lego Lamborghini Sian?

Oh I doubt it'd be THAT much, it's a hard spring.

Might be a bit hard because of the wide engine block in the way :S

I doubt you know how to read the market and balance the economics of a new theme better than the directors at TLC. It's never black and white. Thankfully it's a simple enough model that can just be pieced together from the video.

What... my brain can't even comprehend this logic. Do you not even realise the INSANE amount of effort required just to fake something like this? How do you reconcile the fact that: all the Lego connections there are legal, clearly indicating that someone had to have designed this in the first place, and the fact that new parts can be designed (just look at the 42107 Ducati, that thing has heaps of new moulds)? Like come on dude

Can't help you there in that case, better start buying :P

The set's drivetrain has a lot of backlash because of all the U-joints and long axles. Build jb70's version: https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-31299/jb70/42110-pimp-up-my-land-rover/#comments

I drive my Defender forwards and back a bit from time to time because I like seeing the steering work. Think of it as a means to observe how a function works, much like pushing it forwards and back to see the gearbox/engine move

I don't think there's any reason for them not to include a removable one though :S It's a little more complicated, but there's surely space somewhere on the dash for a removable knob to fit

As long as you’re only talking about the type of functions and not the execution then I feel that any disagreement will be in vain.

Like already been said, that's just marketing to make it seem more exclusive

No, because they want as many people to be able to build it as possible. That and colour vomiting everything is cheaper.

Because clearly you're skilled enough at building. Others are not, and need the help.

The saggy part is actually there for a reason - Grohl wanted to match the slightly negative angle of attack seen in the real car.

Hell yeah that’s the stuff

I think the 18+ rating is just a marketing thing.

Because literally every MK design to date has been stolen. That being said damn, first UCS Technic car that doesn’t make me want to gouge my eyes out

I'm pretty sure I heard that the tiltrotor's orange and black

I think that's Monkie Kid. It's a new theme being launched in China that's meant to be revealing tomorrow I think

There’s a difference? :O

Yeah I'm 90% sure the wheels are just gonna be pearl gold
