Val-E Posted August 22, 2017 Posted August 22, 2017 Seems people are starting to leak prelims for the 2018 range. So far, only pullbacks and one interesting model of note, which would be a licensed Mack container truck. That should please the Americans no end. Quote

Val-E Posted August 22, 2017 Author Posted August 22, 2017 If it´s a 1hy set then it will probably be around 1200 parts and of a similar size to 9397 logging truck. You could fit a few Yorkies on that. Quote
Val-E Posted August 22, 2017 Author Posted August 22, 2017 More leaks of 1HY sets. This time with pics. The 1HY flagship would seem to be a rally car, the next in a line of 1hy 1200 piece cars. There´s also a hovercraft, a yacht and a red seemingly pullback offroader Quote
Val-E Posted October 27, 2017 Author Posted October 27, 2017 Proper box art pics. Spoiler, no Mack Truck yet. https://www.thebrickfan.com/lego-technic-2018-official-set-images/ 1 Quote

Val-E Posted October 27, 2017 Author Posted October 27, 2017 It has a job to do with all that Nexo and SH Girls trash to compact! Quote
eliminator Posted November 18, 2017 Posted November 18, 2017 Well then, this looks interesting! https://brickset.com/article/31973/42078-mac-truck-revealed 9 Quote
Val-E Posted November 18, 2017 Author Posted November 18, 2017 Here´s the rally car, the other interesting 1hy release: 3 Quote
GregP Posted November 18, 2017 Posted November 18, 2017 That truck looks class!! Might actually build one em despite not generally doing technic Quote

Might actually build one em despite not generally doing technic That truck has less Technic parts in it than your UCS Millennium Falcon! Interesting to see that they have moved away from using pure Technic parts to a more Creator advanced model type of design. Also interesting that there is a proper 1HY flagship. That suggests we will get another supercar in the summer. 2 Quote
eliminator Posted November 19, 2017 Posted November 19, 2017 Here's the real Mack Anthem. Not bad Lego, better than I expected. 4 Quote
Val-E Posted November 19, 2017 Author Posted November 19, 2017 Note that no 1HY have PF included or even optional. That suggests a migration to PF2.0 and that the summer flagship will incorporate the new parts. Quote

Val-E Posted November 19, 2017 Author Posted November 19, 2017 Yes, migration to the new specification introduced with Wedo. Quote
gregpj Posted November 19, 2017 Posted November 19, 2017 you mean new motor etc?http://www.technicbricks.com/2016/01/wedo-20-new-parts.html?m=1The LPF 2.0 were introduced with some educational sets some time ago but were not part of the Technic line. Quote
Val-E Posted November 19, 2017 Author Posted November 19, 2017 Yup, Technic and Mindstorms should both migrate this year or next. Quote
Shewie Posted November 22, 2017 Posted November 22, 2017 wow, this set is spectacular, it's growing on me and probably I will get this day one as my second technic set in my entire life. 2 Quote

I don't think I'll ever buy a technic set on day one again after the Porsche. The early adopter premium is very high. Edited November 22, 2017 by Fenix_2k1 Quote
Dr.Dad Posted November 22, 2017 Posted November 22, 2017 I really like the rally car for some reason! I’m not a racing fan or technic fan, but there’s something about it.....Comes down to price whether I pull the trigger or not Quote
Shewie Posted November 22, 2017 Posted November 22, 2017 @Fenix_2k1 I will get this in Poland, these are (Day1) 30% cheaper on regular basis than straight from Lego. And the price isn't that bad comparing to what you get actually. I just can't stand that 5 stud wide grille on the front. Quote

Fugly and no functions. 42000 Grand Prix Racer was a work of art in comparison. 1 Quote
