Val-E Posted January 29, 2019 Author Share Posted January 29, 2019 Sounds like a vintage year comparable to when they released Porsche, Claas, BWE and Volvo in the same summer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest TabbyBoy Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Let's pray that it's as exclusive as 41999 was. It does look cool and I'd love to have one. The question is.... Will as many get on the gravy train as they did for 42056? What makes me nervous about reselling expensive sets is the increase in scams, anal box lickers and fraudulent SNAD cases that can't be proven buy the seller.

CosmicSpeed Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 (edited) The only thing this is missing is a "Bag 3". This is Bad. Ass. I am very interested in the car transporter. If it can hold the secondary Hot Rod model from the Corvette (ugly) I am totally game. Edited January 29, 2019 by CosmicSpeed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waddamon Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 That is awesome. I'll get a few of those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TabbyBoy Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 This could hang around as long as the BWE and Porsche. I pay 50% or go home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Val-E Posted January 30, 2019 Author Share Posted January 30, 2019 2.5 years as usual for flagships. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I think that #2 sets do better as the Claax Xerion is now doing quite well and was often 60% off too! Another is the 42068 ARV which was also heavily discounted and it now above RRP. Will the BWE and orange Porsche reach RRP? hmmm..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Val-E Posted June 20, 2019 Author Share Posted June 20, 2019 I think 4 is the record shared between a couple of sets with tracks and out favourite LE crawler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kumas Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 I guess I would be able to get it 30-40% off so I now know what I am going to build on Christmas Eve :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

$20 on joe vs dan Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 Maybe I'm new to all this...but Technic seems to be more about proving'''Yeah we could do it" than developing a set for a mass market Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dmind Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 In Netherlands, every Technic set is at some stage available at 40% discount - no exceptions. Half of the Technic sets will even go up to 50-55% discount. So far, we have only hit 33% discount (300 euro), so have to wait a bit longer until it hits 250-270 euro.

kouks Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 They had them 35% off at Costco. I caved and bought two. There could be a better discount in the future, but maybe not. I waited for a 50% discount on 42070 and never saw it in Canada. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmaslıefendi Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 Buy this set at least 45% off. DO NOT pay more. Who even knows when it'll be gone... Dec 2021 probably, plenty of time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
