Kman860

Which would explain the Ultimate IP name....

I think the confusion is because people think MK is mark # but it's actually an inside joke because the designer is Marcus Kossman, 8265 was MK, 42009 was MK II because it was his second flagship he did, and this is his third, hence MK III.

I can live with that. :grin:

I was gonna do a summary for the porche, but then I realized 90% of what we know hasn't been confirmed so here's what we know: It's probably gonna be 300 euros, it looks to have PF lights, black or black camo will not be final color, and there are a lot of new pieces. And here's what's been speculated: It could be RC, lack of HOG points to that, still doesn't have realistic suspension or steering geometry, probably has a flat engine in the back, and it could also not be RC (no visible motors yet other than brick built pieces [possible place holders]).

Here’s a summary of what we know so far: There are new turntable elements (made up of quarter rings), comes with a recolored (cough *Leibherr* cough) 42035, LA’s to operate arms are manual, PF are rotating superstructure, driving tracks (no steering though), rotating buckets, and moving conveyers, uses an XL motor, largest technic set to date (part wise) and fifth largest lego set, B-model is aggregate sorting machine (actually sorts pieces), switches are to control direction of fuction, instead of just picking function, and price is either 180 or 250 pounds.

Here’s a quick summary of what we know so far: New tractor tires (107x44), exclusive 4 wheel steering, cabin rotates (motorized), lower 2 sections of the crane are motorized, upper 2 are manual, possibly only rear PTO, no engine or 4 wheel drive, B model just rebuilds crane and weights into a silage plow, small steering lock, no suspension, and HOG steering.

That's what I've thought the whole time.

Connected drive was a big let down for me, but I'm still gonna buy it.

You'd think they would have had the other 3 though.

That was pre-battlefront though

Any info from toyfair yet?

I could maybe see that.

I know about the racing colours but I thought we were getting the street version?

Teal makes absolutely no sense. This has to be made up because everything about this set is accurate to Porsche, so why would they use a non-Porsche colour?

I would think 1x1 cylinders would be better

Either way, this year will be expensive as hell :laugh:

I think it is....

The way it worked (IDK about post-legends), was that you were a padawan. You passed the trials and became a knight. You took on a padawan and once THEY became a knight, you became a master. Ahsoka never became a knight, so Anakin couldn't have been a Master. Case and point.

Same, although I don't mind waiting until March, gives my wallet some time to recover. :laugh:

In my opinion, it should come with pneumatics, (not complaining, just saying most tractors have hydraulic and pneumatic hook ups [at least at the back]).

We don't have them yet in Canada either.

Exactly. :sweet:

If anything, Volvo might actually be paying TLG, and that can subsidize the price of this set.

The only thing I could maybe see would be Snoke is Palpatines secret apprentice. MAYBE.

Ya, I didn't really read the rest, just read the Volvo, but now I see what you guys mean.
