The bucket on the telehandler looks like a new part, with an attachment point in the centre. Markings on the inside of the bucket are new as well. Wonder if it's related to the bucket parts on the Bucket Wheel Excavator? Think we're seeing bucket evolution here. Also, I think I've set a record for the number of times one can utter the word 'bucket' in a single post... -
I want that telehandler! I like how the boom uses an Arocs outrigger part.
-
Another Volvo loader? I don't think so somehow. The Class combine sounds a bit more likely, though. About time we had a combine! If we do get another loader, I'd like it to be a Liebherr model. With Porsche and now BMW in the mix, it'd be brilliant to see more licenses added to the pot.

Woah, that's some time to wait. Come on Street Working Cars! (Road Work Vehicles?)
-
Woo-hoo! That's good news. I saw dokludi's replica yesterday and I must say I'm excited for it!
-
Brilliant work! There aren't enough Technic scrapers.
-
Yeah. I'm still hoping we get that fire truck...
-
Lars Krogh Jensen designed the 42025 set, whose B-model is a large watercraft, and Michael Jeppesen designed the 42045 hydroplane racer, so I'd bet on either of them being behind 42064.

Like the sound of that truck set! Orange with a backhoe on the back? Sounds like a Unimog...
-
I'd like to second that motion.
-
You're right, Twinotter. Now, the street sweeper/municipal vehicle: will it be like the 8415 B-model?
-
Yet another helicopter? Whoopee. That's a whopping SIX since 2010, not counting B-models. If I really liked helicopters, I'd be ecstatic, but... sigh.
-
Wonder if the Container Transport is some kind of forklift or reach stacker...
-
We need a new combine harvester!
-
I see from merman's photos that the Mining Truck in this set is built differently from the one in 42035.
-
That crane looks brilliant! Great work replicating it.
-
I noticed that too. MJ is possibly Michael Jeppesen, and Milan Reindl usually puts OK on his models. OK is the Czech Republic's aerial code, though, so it might not apply to a ground vehicle. Could be Olav Kroigaard.

The Bucket Wheel Excavator - burdened with glorious purpose!

42053 - Volvo EW160E

Now that I think about it, it would've been great if LEGO equipped this puppy with chevron tyres like those on the Claas. Ah well. -
True. Just because it looked okay, doesn't mean it wasn't ready for release. You're right, LEGO have all the answers on that one. You can't help but wonder, though.

Nearly fell off my sofa when I read this. I think it's a real shame the Airport Rescue Vehicle got cancelled. I didn't see anything wrong with it, and it would have been great to have the mudguard parts in white.

That would be great! -
Wonder what the B-model for the Airport Rescue Vehicle was going to be. Maybe an off-roader like the 2003 version?

Also great licenses for LEGO to aim for in the future! -
That's a good set you've chosen! If you're looking for a really good set, the 42052 helicopter might be worth a look. So far, though, the only '16 set I have is the 42049 Mine Loader, and I only chose that because it's a yellow mining vehicle; your mileage might vary on that one. Ultimately, it's up to you. Check out some videos and see what you like the look of.
