    Yeah, you are most likely correct. I do not have those arches so I can’t confirm if the Ferrari mudguards fit in those arches.

    Doesn’t seem to be the successor to the Defender to me, looks much more like a successor to the Ferrari from January. The part count is hard to read but looks like 1375 pieces. Also if the wheel arches are the same as 42056, the black mudguard parts are new and larger than the Ferrari.

    Speaking of catalog, it seems like there have been too few in the USA this year. I used to get more than three each year, but for 2021 sets I only got one in January.

    I wish LEGO would put extra stock of these new colors for sale online or at least use them in sets in the near future. I collect parts like these (trans-clear axle, prototype liftarm to name a few), and they are very very hard to find. I don’t want to give in to the clone bricks so rare elements like these are the best option.

    Excellent spot! I was wondering why it wasn’t popping up correctly on BL.

    This set is AWESOME! Thrilled to see two of the long pneumatic cylinders and maybe a new airtank. Also it appears that we get an 11L alternating beam!! Hard to tell but there seems to be one on each side and one on the very back folding part.

    I spotted part 18651 Technic Axle Pin 3L with Friction Ridges Lengthwise and 2L Axle in WHITE in the new Ninjago Hydro Bounty set. It holds the trans-light blue panels on the front end. I only see one, but hopefully it appears more in smaller sets.

    I guess it’s just a replacement for the Friends lipstick piece since it’s used in similar situations (like the Caterham Ideas set).

    I love the idea of a modular car contest! I think it will be really fun if people choose to start it.

    I’m excited that the black bushings are back! I’ve been hearing rumors that black half bushings might be coming, but I wouldn’t get my hopes up.

    I’ve never had any parts fuse themselves together besides some old polycarbonate plates, but there are some “problem areas” in certain sets that lead to parts breaking. There are two DBG 13L beams in the bottom of the Arocs chassis that snapped in the same place after it fell off my shelf. The unreleased Osprey apparently chews through gears as well.

    Very solid design! The steering column structure is excellent. Just curious, why did you choose to motorize the car with EV3? The back proportions would be easier to model if PF motors were used.
  13. TechnicRCRacer
    I am all for this! I always thought having the Technic forum include Model Team and not scale model-oriented builds was a bit confusing. I have seen other newer forum members also confused by this so merging them together should fix the issue.

    I like this idea! It would be cool if it allowed for 42069-esque models, like other cars with tracks.

    I heard rumors that the red shocks were slightly harder than the yellow ones, but I think they are most likely the same.

    Looks like a scam. Be wary in trusting an eBay listing using stock images instead of pictures of the actual item, especially for that price.
  17. TechnicRCRacer
    Apparently people don't believe it can be done, but I think with these limited parts (and the new panels coming in the flower set), someone could totally make a decent sized car. I have many of the older dark green parts, but maybe I will pick up the new ones off B&P later. Maybe a combination of dark green/black would look nicest.
  18. TechnicRCRacer
    Don’t forget the two other new dark green panels from the Mobile Kid boat set: the 3x13 curved panel and the 3x7 curved panel.
  19. TechnicRCRacer
    I think we have enough Technic parts to finally make a dark green supercar!

    I actually have two of these, they were test shots for testing the quality of a new mold when the part was first designed. LEGO uses (or at least used) red to highlight possible errors in the molding, and apparently tons of these red Technic parts leaked out of the factory to collectors. If you do but any of these, know that they are genuine but expect lesser part quality due to the errors in molding (they still work).

    All 20 of mine align, but I seem to be in the minority. Another three I got in a set do not align.
  22. TechnicRCRacer
    Wow, we get the long thin pneumatic cylinder again, after 6 years!
  23. TechnicRCRacer
    Darn! I did see two more white axle-looking things in the middle, but they must be the same. EDIT: Gray 3L axles, the light reflected funny :( When will we get more fun Technic colors? I wish they wouldn’t waste all their resources on unfun themes like Vidiyo.
  24. TechnicRCRacer
    In @2GodBDGlory’s picture I see white axle ends inside the Technic axlehole brick. Exciting, since Technic parts with axles are quite rare in white. EDIT (again) I was wrong, just a boring old 1x1 beam with 1L axle.
  25. TechnicRCRacer
    All 20 from B&P aligned perfectly for me, so you shouldn’t worry too much since all B&P orders come from the same place (I believe).
