sives1 Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Yes! I would also love to have them. It will be amazing if anyone could send them to me. If it's not a problem me too :) Quote
Freekysch Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Same here, if anyone could be so kind. Quote
allanp Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 I asked someone for pics via PM and they are absolutely sworn to secrecy no matter how kind they are, so no luck. Best not pester them any further Quote
1974 Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Hmm, if those pics are ciculating without TLG's approval, I'd say those promises means jack Why don't someone just dump them to website/forum that has a lower integrity of EB and be done with it? It's not like TLG are gonna hire the Pinktertons/NSA/Sherlock Holmes to track the leak down This is silly (And for the record, I don't care about the pics, I'm not going to buy any of the sets) Quote
Rishab N Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 If anyone could PM me pics that would be awesome Quote
allanp Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 (edited) You are talking about intellectual property rights, the kind of thing that comes with very large fines if violated. I personally would not risk it and would not expect anyone else to either. Edited January 16, 2015 by allanp Quote
Alasdair Ryan Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 (edited) Just saw a picture it has yellow LA's not pneumatics. It is just the same as every one else has said, 8x4 white truck with crane. I also saw some springs too. Edited January 16, 2015 by Alasdair Ryan Quote

I also saw some springs too. Interesting, nobody never mention 8x4 before, so you must have better info or photos.If this truck is 8x4 there must be fake L6 engine, right?Also LA, when everybody mention new pneumatic?This doesnt make sense. Suspension, YES! Quote
allanp Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Yeah, well I just saw a picture and it had release dates. It's being released everywhere early, except Scotland, where it will not be released. Quote
Alasdair Ryan Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Both front wheels are steering. Yeah, well I just saw a picture and it had release dates. It's being released everywhere early, except Scotland, where it will not be released. I never saw that. Quote

Also LA, when everybody mention new pneumatic?This doesnt make sense. Suspension, YES! This is too funny! I never saw that. Oh yeah yeah. Something about not enough people living there to make it worth while. Edited January 16, 2015 by allanp Quote
merman Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 (edited) Well, the front of the truck looks rather meeeh... I sincerely doubt it has suspension even though the mudguards begin above the wheels... And it seem to have 3 types of pneumatic cyllinders: 2 XL's (about 2.5-3 studs longer than the regular ones), a regular one and a small one. And no yellow LA's unless they started to use pneumatic tubes for LA's all of a sudden. The color scheme is a bit boring. Something tells me this is not final. Edited January 16, 2015 by merman Quote

That's twice Lego Technic and Mercedes have teamed up and it's looking like twice we get something awesome on another level! Quote
Ondra Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Well it looks like that everybody already seen photos, except for me.Probably it is hard to make other happy with sharing of this photo, I dont know why it is such big deal to send me or other afols PM this photo. Quote
allanp Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 The color scheme is a bit boring. Something tells me this is not final. It will not be final yet judging by previous years. It might look better or worse but it will surely look a bit different. Quote
Ondra Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 (edited) Also you can watermarked it with my name, so if this leak lego can sue me . Edited January 16, 2015 by Ondra Quote

Believe me I've not seen diddley squat either and I'm the one who annoyed everyone on eurobricks for years about how we need longer pneumatics! Come to think of it that's probably why I haven't seen anything Quote

That's twice Lego Technic and Mercedes have teamed up and it's looking like twice we get something awesome on another level! Well like 8258 it is hard to judge the length from the pic. the tipper or bed (not sure it can actually tip) has a length of 3 11x5 panels. And the crane seems to have a new red bracket part, but this also may be the bluryness of the picture. Like somethimg can slide in it. Maybe a pneumatic cyllinder is hidden in it to make it extend. That would make sense because I only count 3 cyllinders and it should have 4. Unless the tipper has one too. Edited January 16, 2015 by merman Quote
allanp Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Also you can watermarked it with my name, so if this leak lego can sue me . Now there's an idea. Yeah, send me a pic watermarkered with Ondra's name on it! Quote
Ondra Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 This situation is ridiculos, I looks like some afols doesnt trust in another afols . Quote
Rishab N Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Seems like everyone has them. Obviously "sworn to secrecy" means nothing Quote
Alasdair Ryan Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Awe so every one knew it was a joke then. There is some info on technic bricks. Quote
merman Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Front consists of a white 3x11 panel and three rows of plates that have clip plates and regular 1x1 plates alternated. The bottom row is tilted downwards, It looks too wide and it has one row less than the actual Arocs. If something will be changed in the design it will most definitely be the overall front look of the truck. Seems like everyone has them. Obviously "sworn to secrecy" means nothing Describing what you see and sharing a pic are two different things. Quote

That would make sense because I only count 3 cyllinders and it should have 4. Unless the tipper has one too. I've read that the arm can extend. Apparently hoses can be seen going to where the cylinder should be to extend it. Sounds very interesting. The Unimog (the last Mercedes team up) came with two new pneumatic parts as well all the new portal hub and ball joint suspension parts. Maybe Mercedes gives them a bigger budget for making new parts to make their models more like the real thing? Edited January 16, 2015 by allanp Quote
