Wonder what other uses TLG has in store for this part? -
I think @thekoRngear was talking about another Volvo set to complement the A60H. Perhaps not.
-
Would be great. It'd be a bit of a shame if the loader polybag was the Volvo set for 2022.
-
No thanks.
-
Brickset has published an article. Looking pretty official!
-
I'd be thrilled with a JCB anything, really. Even a polybag would be so cool.
-
Not a flagship.
-
Both are motorized.
-
The last non-motorized flagship was 8285 in 2006, though its B-model could be motorized. So, if we're talking about a complete lack of motors, the last non-motorized flagship was 8436 in 2004. That's seventeen years. Quite a gap.

You might be thinking of the Volvo H-10, which used the Bolinder-Munktell 35 tractor as the basic chassis. The Volvo L350f is a purpose-built wheel loader. The Kirovets K700, conversely, is a tractor with articulated steering like the 9620R, that can be reconfigured as a wheel loader.

Cool! You've done a good job with yours.
-
Time to update the title of this thread, methinks...
-
So it does exist!
-
Looks good so far! I think it definitely needs the tape-reel "eyes" in the cab - you can use Technic bricks to mount those.
-
I agree. A real-world image would give a bit more background.
-
The boom seems to be raised by linkage, which feels like a bit of a step down from the worm-gear of 8045. The fork tilt and steering are cool, though - they definitely make this set feel like more of an evolution.
-
Looks more like Medium Azure to me. But I guess we'll have to wait for higher-res images to know.
-
I like the colour. And do I spy fork tilt? I think I do!
-
The blue body resembles 42095-A while the orange one looks like 42075-B. Overall it looks like those two sets have been smashed into one.
-
Giving the image a good look, this thing is based on the classic Rebound R/C car with two different body designs that are interchangeable depending on whichever way up it faces. That's pretty much the extent of the "transformation" function as far as I can tell.
-
It ain't a CONTROL+ set if it don't fart.
-
Yeah. That ain't too great.
-
It comes with a chainsaw, that's why.
-
It's based on a Polaris Big Boss.
-
Liking the chainsaw!
