It's red and black, so no.

What are you gonna do if the claw on this 🐕 just happens to be manual?

Hear hear!

Bit sad that there's no sizeable Volvo set this year.

Makes sense, considering there would be no optimum position for motors with a continuous function.

The H175 does not have a ramp.

Well overdue if you ask me! Sometimes the yellow can really clash with certain colour schemes.

I'd say the tyres for this 🐕 are more likely to have road tread.

The earlier-discussed changes to the C+ system might be a factor as well, especially if a new rechargeable battery pack is involved. I'm clutching at straws though.

Wonder if this 🐕 will use the orange-peel grab parts from 42006 and 42042? They're woefully underused in my opinion, having appeared in only two sets in just under a decade.

Did some research and I can confidently state that the H175 is specifically a civilian model, so I'd say it's fairly unlikely that any group would have a problem with it this time. Unless it also chews up its workings, of course. The UK Army does use a military version, but that's designated as the H175M.

Guess it depends on how much C+ is integrated since it usually (if not always) drives the price skyward.

Got that right. It might have C+ or the dumb battery box, though.

Will it use actual weight bricks on the counterweight like 8288? Or will a shit-ton of stacked frames be enough?

Nah, nothing beats 42053. And with only 800-odd parts, this is probably gonna look a lot leaner.

This thing is gonna need its own room...

If correct, the Liebherr set is this puppy:

This really doesn't get said enough. While 42070 isn't quite a classic, it's a great build and there's loads to do with it when it's built. And of course the gearbox is huge and complex.

42102's B is allegedly a harvester, although it looks more like a windrower. The issue with a combine harvester (namely 8274) is that it only really has one function - the header. Sure, a combine (again, 8274) has other features like the grain pipe, but those don't translate well into Technic since it can't actually unload grain. CONTROL+ could simulate this by engaging the header and calculating how much grain the user gathers by the angle of the header, distance travelled and so on. But a combine harvester isn't even a construction vehicle, so this line of discussion is moot.

Nothing beats 42004 for me. A basket of functions in a brilliantly compact package and a cool B-model as the cherry on top!

Apparently Megalodon's B is modelled on the lusca, a mythical shark/squid creature. I'll leave it to the folks on this forum to decide whether or not the resemblance is there.

Don't think TLG had any outside outrage (manufactured, or not) on which to fall back with the Zetros, so they've probably just had to grit their teeth on that one and try to fix it. I'm also open to the theory that the 6x6 version had to be scrapped because it also has military applications, and the 4x4 has problems because it was rushed. But I must state that I cannot substantiate any of this, Osprey included. I just have my suspicions.

Yep.

It would have passed with flying colours if it didn't eat its own gears.
