New Front End Loader and Black X-Pod coming soon

[sam89]

They're not out in Europe yet, but soon a Technic Front End Loader and a Black X-Pod will be available on S@H.

The Front End Loader actually has studs (most recent Technic sets don't), and the Black X-Pod appears to be a black and orange version of the green X-Pod. But since I'm using the pieces from the green X-pod fro something else at the moment, I think I'll get the Black one anyway :D

wow, another x-pod!!! :D okay, only some kind of re-release... but nonetheless a black X-Pod!!!! At least nice for parts, e.g. two of this bricks with 3 studs... ;)

Is that Technic set a re-release or something new?

Cool, looks very nice. Black and orange is a good combination of colours I think, and it gives us an excuse to buy more xpods!!

i hope there are more then only that few shown orange pieces icluded... i love this color, but i haven't much of it (ordered 24 pieces at ebay a few weeks ago...)

I don't do much with technic, so I'm not that interested in that set - Although I do have a larger pneumatic loader which is a very impressive set.

As for the X-Pod: I got the original 4 from a friend of mine, I really like them. They're some of the few sets I have kept separate and not sorted into my collection. I plan to get at least one of this black one, especially since the black disk pieces are much more useful (to me) than the brightly coloured ones. Ah well...I hope they release more X-Pods, they're great little sets. And yes, at least for my S@H login (Canada) it's listed under the Halloween section.
