    Hope that AMG has all printed pieces and not stickers that cover multiple parts. @T Lego is this your set perhaps or another one of Bruno's creations?

    Nice work on the excavator! How many gears does the gearbox have and is there a purpose to it other than spinning the fake engine at different speeds when pushing the model around? Might I suggest you use one of these for organizing (at least the small parts like pins and gears):

    And here I was worried in the morning that the forum got hacked, because it kept asking for my username and password and spitting out 401 error if I didn't. Will take some time to get used to this new design. A proper dark theme would be great, because with this mod I can barely distinguish the grey icons. I don't remember having to click twice to quote a post. Is this new with the checkmark and multiquotes?

    Good find. I did not notice that in the model. Then just use two 2L pins and leave the middle free. I know about the part nr. changes. The firetruck also received a 4125 set nr. even though it came out in 2024.

    Looks to me like all decorations are printed, which makes this set even more awesome. The small Speed Champion sized Sauber F1 also had only printed parts. There's also this image: I know these CaDA newcomers are not Master level, but still look pretty cute for kids:

    Here's the Studio file, in case you missed out on the make & take: 6562113.io

    Yes, but Lego shop is not retail. It's D2C.

    As @AVCampos writes there is precedent and it's clear from the disappearance of PUp from lego.com that the system is dead. The RC Porsche GT4 also uses a USB-C rechargeable hub similar to these. Spike had the same angular motors as Technic sets used and also some miniature ones. Now I only hope we will see sensors and smart hubs in Technic too, since Mindstorms is also dead and burried and Education sets are never available in retail.

    Because they receive a new element ID and part nr. and get treated as such by Studio and database admins too, whereas recolours only get a new element ID but the part nr. remains the same.

    RIP PoweredUp. This will be the new motorization system:

    It was just a joke. LEGO also thinks the same way, hence the optional stickers. Prints are way too durable for display models anyway and limit part reusability.

    Nice, but you forgot the licensed stickers. Without them you can't tell that it's a Ducati Panigale. ;) Did anyone notice that there's apparently an unwritten rule at TLG that bevel gears shouldn't mesh with spur gears? It's consistent in all the years since the new spur gear versions of 12T, 16T, 20T, etc. appeared.

    Good deduction! It's exactly used as you describe. Here is the mock-up of the parts and how they connect. Maybe this heavy duty ratcheting joint will be used in the upcoming UCS AT-ST Walker. It's also interesting to know that the Designer behind this HD joint is Janko Grujic, who designed last year's large City Excavator 60460 (which introduced the 5713 element 3L Axle and Pin Connector). If we look at the upcoming list of City sets for June, we can find two possible candidates 60466 Bulldozer with Front Loader or my main hunch 60467 Heavy Duty Recovery Tow Truck with Crane, an 80$, 793 pcs vehicle probably similar in size as 60409. where this assembly would be of use.

    Just discovered these close-ups on the lego website.

    Holy cow! There are more! https://euipo.europa.eu/eSearch/#details/designs/015085679-0028 https://euipo.europa.eu/eSearch/#details/designs/015085679-0030 https://euipo.europa.eu/eSearch/#details/designs/015085679-0031

    Guess which company filed a patent on these parts?
  17. R0Sch
    Unless LEGO is also planning to release a flagship JCB excavator later this year, which would explain why it's still pending approval on CaDA's side.

    Maybe it's just supposed to be a caboose styled boxcar like this: https://oklahomarailwaymuseum.org/exhibits/rock-island-17834-caboose/

    Nothing interesting besides the 1:8 Kick Sauber F1 and 1:10 Mazda 787B models in the 2025 catalog imo.

    The train didn't just get 6 extra minifigures, but the whole train was changed getting an extra wagon, the tender can now be motorized (sadly the train motor and hub are discontinued now), even the track base is less part intensive now. It did get 432 parts more in the process.

    Cool Make & Take soapbox racer on the 15th & 16th January (at least in DACH region). The minifigure seems to be the same from 60460 though.

    Another recolored animal:

    Apparently the Harry Potter set 76447 includes a black parrot. Do you know which other set had this exclusive part 35 years ago? I don't think this is a coincidence. Do you?
  24. R0Sch
    Yes, the list seems partial atm.
