Anyone seen the 42030 Volvo Front Loader?

So I mentioned in a blog about Technic showing up in other stores that I thought it might be good for the theme. If Lego invests more money in it, maybe they will start licensing more of it like the Unimog. 

 

Well we have another licensed set. Volvo may not be the biggest name in construction, but its certainly looks like a push in that direction. Technic lovers love Construction - and I feel like they will love licensed Construction even more.

 

This is a big boy at 1636 pieces. Looks sweet too:

So far for that happy dance I did when Amazon UK shipped my two Volvos two days ago :/

I know your pain. I missed a cog out on the BWE and it was a nightmare to fix. Got my value for money in assembly time, though.

I was too optimistic building this set after 20 years without Lego, each axle is rotating the oher way and one receiver doesnt respond ...

Invert the direction of one of the differentials to fix problem one. Check they are how they are in the manual.

Quite shocked to only see 25 sellers on eBay UK (new BIN). Thought it would be flooded after being ~£90 each during Tesco 3-for-2, wish i had brought more now.

It would be rude not to. I've just listing a load of used sets with that offer, good timing.
