  1. Monster Jam trucks famously use BKT chevron tyres, so I don't see why the sets won't feature them. Otherwise, why not just do generic monster trucks?
  2. It doesn't. But it might have one of the newer bucket parts (from 42055 or 42061).
  3. Info on 42116: The LEGO Technic 42116 compact loader is the classic 10, - Euro set: A red wheel loader with black, blue and white elements. Suitable for children from 7 years and at least with B-model. Set number: 42116 German name: Skid steer loader Number of parts: 140 Price: 9.99 euros So this, then:
  4. EXCAVATOR HAS A B-MODEL! EXCAVATOR HAS A B-MODEL! EXCAVATOR HAS A B-MODEL! EXCAVATOR HAS A B-MODEL!
  5. The last two are coming out in March. Must be big releases. Could the excavator be our JCB?
  6. Compact loader's probably gonna be similar to 42032. Would be nice to have wheels this time around, though.
  7. Looks like the two pullbacks are gonna be monster trucks. You know what that means - MONSTER TRUCK TYRES! Looking forward to the compact loader and excavator the most.
  8. Nice use of purple on that puller! The County's awesome as well - looks like those tyres were built for it!
  9. Woah, 42101 and 42104 are going out already? Why are a load of sets not even lasting a year now?
  10. Scale actually wouldn't be an issue for me; I'd just be happy to have another backhoe. The size doesn't matter - 42004 proves that.
  11. Does the V-22 in SS2 have a faulty gear mechanism, though?
  12. The V-22 is designed and built specifically for combat operations. The Unimog and Defender, on the other hand, are civilian/service vehicles with potential military applications. There is a difference.
  13. Yellow was probably the first colour to have variations (it's had them since 2002, I think), so I'm not really surprised on that score. The fringes on the connectors and the misaligned print on the servo are beyond ridiculous, though.
  14. I only bought 42108 because I didn't already have a mobile crane. That, and I prefer the styling to previous versions. 2020, as with everything else, has been a lacklustre year for Technic. Roll on 1H2021... ...although based on the crappy trends we've seen recently, I'm not optimistic about it.
  15. Funnily enough, these only appeared in white in a single set.
  16. 42097 became unavailable in some countries after that amount of time. You can't get it in the UK any more. Maybe cranes aren't selling. Or maybe TLG is taking them off the market early so people will pay more for them on Bricklink...
  17. @I_Igor, @jorgeopesi, thanks for the feedback! Muchly appreciated. @Jundis - that is a much larger part and would require a rescale. I do have it in Old Dark Grey and Orange, but I think I'll stick with Lime.
  18. Meet the PuppyTrack compact tracked dumper! No site is too big for this little doggy! PuppyTrack - the smallest dog barks the loudest(TM)! Tipping is carried out by a gear-driven linkage.
  19. It would be good to know if the actual steering is still hard to use, as well.
