Think more wheels, more.......blurry. 

I like the RC model and the Jet. The RC car would be fun to play in the garden ....

You´re mixing your sets up. Ondra was referring to another set, not the 6x6 tow truck.

Oops. Sorry about that.

 

Without posting  any prelim images, here is what the 2017 flagship looks like. It´s using Claas tractor tyres so it is going to be quite a large set, probably 1:8 scale.

Wouldn't get it myself if it wasn't RC , but I just lurves them RC sets. At least I think it's RC?

IR control just for a silly little crane and stabilisers seems pointless. We are due a full size powered and steered RC set again. My doubt is whether PF2.0 are integrated or not.

It doesn't drive? Pfffft pass.

Next.

It probably will drive, if not just give it a bit of an Aussie rules push!

9398 owners may want to consider their options.

You mean if we can crash them into each other? I say yes. 

And + 1 for mentioning Aussie rules.

It looks kind of lame after 2016. I seriously hope that there will be an exclusive again, but I find that unlikely just after one year.

One set number is missing from the list. Maybe this year is too soon for another supercar and perhaps also for the winner of the future truck contest. Last year was an exceptional vintage - they won´t be able to match it easily.

It doesnt seems to be 1:8 more like Arocs scale on steroids with large wheels..



Front and cabin is more like this Maxxpro Wrecker from Navistar

not really liking the models but I know there will be some new pieces and at least one rare / expensive piece which is great for someone who makes a lot of MOC's.

It would appear that the tracked vehicle and airport truck are not powered. The 6x6 truck would seem to have RC power drive and steering and a powered and raisable winch, outriggers.

Strange there is no servo motor for steering, perhaps they are combining functions on the M motor. We´ll see tomorrow when they do demonstrations.

Fairly disappointed......hope there's more. Kind of hard to top last year's Technic releases I guess....

I agree, last year´s range was brilliant and 4 models were in thetop 10 sets in Germany. There is one set number free for 2h but maybe that´s all we are getting this year.

Price sets very expensive.

42068 ( Fire truck) – 89,99€

42070 (truck 6x6) – 249,99€

42069 (truck snow) – 129,99€

I like it too but, it needs a massive discount to tempt me. Why is this the 2nd bike in a row to have no seat? It really looks like a seat is missing. I had to MOC the last one to cure my OCD. It's nearly as bad as their buildings being facade only rather than being finished off properly. I'm a completionist, LEGO aren't ;-)
