Hello, Since on the LEGO homepage the instruction is updated, if I order the set the new updated one will come? Has anyone have the updated version so far?

So it looks like we have an endurance racing series here. I bet in 2023 January we will get a Aston Martin Vantage GTE.

https://www.lego.com/en-us/product/ferrari-488-gte-af-corse-51-42125 So it looks like, its a Ferrari 488 GTE!

A Model: Volvo Concept Wheel Loader ZEUX At first I was hesitating to purchase the set, because I was not sure if I like it or not. I usually like construction vehicles and the Volvo brand, but I was not fully happy what I saw. Then Jims review and Sariel video review convinced me to buy one. Jims review: Sariels video review: Building Experience: The build is quite interesting. The steering mechanism, the adjustable suspension, chassis and the boom are pretty simple, so it does not take long to build, but the counterweight is quite big with some details, so it took some time and is a bit boring. Overall nothing special but still fun. 7/10 Design: The vehicle looks futuristic and it is like a scorpion. Overall I like it but still has some interesting choices, like the camera is on the right side not in the middle and the center of the vehicle looks a bit unfinished and I do not get the function or design of the side panels which are located between the front and rear wheels. They are easily loose and have no sense to have them. But the design is still cool. 7/10 Features: Four wheel steering works fine with a great radius. Controlling the boom and the bucket is simply and works fine. It does not take so long to extend it if you use both gears on both sides. The adjustable suspension also works fine, but after a while gets boring to use it and the counterweight gets boring even earlier and makes not too much sense to use it. The drone can give some extra playability and the engine inside the counterweight with the openable doors and the details. Unfortunately, the drone is not able to rotate every propeller when it is sitting on the vehicle. 7/10 Overall: Its pretty nice model with a unique design and fine functions. I would not say it’s the best autonomous wheel loader I can imagine, but still an interesting cooperation between Lego and Volvo. 7/10 B Model: Volvo Concept Hauler PEGAX After I finished with the A model and checked the B model more deeply on the back of the box, I was keen to build it as soon as possible. The design looked better and plainer than the A model. Building Experience: The experience is pretty similar to the A model, but without the boring parts, so it was quite nice to build it! 8/10 Design: The vehicle looks like the little brother of the wheel loader. Same style just it is a hauler. The camera also in the right side and there is a hole on the vehicle under the drone, so I prefer to leave the drone on the vehicle. 903 parts used from the 1167 parts which is fair enough, but still had some leftovers so they may could partly fill the hole. Fortunately, the drone can spin its propellers when it is sitting on the hauler unlike the loader. Overall it looks cooler than the A model. 8/10 Features: All 3 main features work fine. Steering, adjustable suspension, dump and the little door at the back of the dump. Not a lot function but still at least as enjoyable as the wheel loaders functions. Also have the drone and the camera. Nothing special here, but a fun vehicle to play with. 8/10 Overall:I found it more interesting than the A model. Yes, it has less functions, maybe less detailed, but still this one looks better and works better without unnecessary parts or functions, so I prefer this one instead of the ZEUX. 8/10 C Model: Autonomous Compact Loader, designed by KBD Design https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-40507/KBD Design/42081-model-c-autonomous-compact-loader/?inventory=1#comments I really like when a C model follows the concept of the original set, so this autonomous C model for the Volvo branded autonomous original set was a no brainer for me, also the presentation of the model is pretty nice by KBD Design and the design looks fantastic and well detailed. Building Experience: The overall building experience was really good, especially the second half, when the whole vehicle began to assemble. There are also some nice ideas and great use of the existing parts. Most of the parts were used, even from the leftovers of the original set. 1052 of 1167 were used and none of them are unnecessary just to increase the part number. In the building instruction there are some minor issues in 2-3 cases when the instruction had a small sub-build and you have to do that multiple times the pieces only counted once in the step part list. There was one mistake though at step 54 and 55 (two sides), if you follow the sub-build you head into an impossible build, but if you do not do the sub-build just attach to the main module step by step its working fine, so not a big deal. Even the needed stickers are also marked nicely in the instruction, but unfortunately the not needed ones are not marked, it would be nice to see where to put them. Overall the building instruction is really nice and well detailed. Easy to follow and gives you a nice building experience. 7/10 Design: The assembled vehicle looks stunning. Really well designed everything is on the right spot. I especially loved the sensor at the bucket. The vehicle is pretty robust only one part is a bit flexible at the top, but usually you never touch it so not a big deal and the bucket if lowered can be a bit flexible as well, but I do not think anything could be done better here. From every angle it looks stanning! Not over designed, from the leftover parts you can easily put some extra lamps or some design to the model, but it is just perfect as it is. Such a beauty and if someone says it is a concept vehicle from Volvo, I would believe it without a doubt! 8/10 Features: Liftable boom works fine, but it is a bit hard to raise or lower it. The designer had limited parts (only one black 20 tooth double bevel gear and plenty 12 tooth double bevel ones), so I do not think anything could be done better here. The tilt able bucket also works fine, and it is a bit easier to operate. The movement ranges for the boom and bucket are perfect. The steering is only for the rear axle, which at first, I was not a big fan, but it turned out the turning radius is quite good. Works fine, but with the small gear it’s a bit hard to operate. I would prefer the axle connector hub with 3 axles from the leftovers. Because of the rear steering the front axle can spin a fan and can be seen from the outside when the vehicle is moving which is also a great feature. Drone is almost the same as the original one, if the boom is in work and the drone is sitting on the vehicle the arms will touch the propellers in one point but not a big deal. The camera is also almost the same, but has a shorter arm, which fits better and makes it possible to attach an infrared bucket camera which is really cool! Overall, the features are pretty good, and I do not think anything could be added or missing. 7/10 Overall: I am happy with the overall result and it looks really nice in my showcase cabinet. :) Altogether it is a great C model for the set 42081 and this one adds a great value for the set, now I have a feeling this set has three original Volvo autonomous construction vehicles. If the PEGAX was the little brother to the ZEUX, this one is the bigger cousin. I would highly recommend to anybody who loved the original set! 7/10

Hello Everyone! :) I know its not really professional, but here is my first ever MOC. :) Actually I do not even know if it counts as a MOC, because only the attachment is modified. I tried to build a plow attachment from the original attachment parts. 2 motorised functions: arm can turn to the right side of the tractor and also up-down like in the pics. PS: I am really proud of it. :D Pics:

Where did you find it in hungary, or from where you ordered? Thanks in advance :)

Looks like 42061 will release as well: Front Back source: http://kockashop.hu/lego/teleszkopos-markologep-42061

Hello Everyone! I think the battery box placed perfectly (just check the pics below)! I wanted the EW160E to be a flagship, but this also looks really nice, and I cant wait to buy it.;) In my opinion this set is not so small, just next to the other sets from the second half of 2016 it looks small, so 1166 pieces looks fine for me. I also like that a licence set has manual pump! I am just a bit disappointed because of the arms head is a two piece grabber instead of a one piece spade boom. (or how to call them in English) :) I will make a spade boom anyway so its not a big problem.:) Its an amazing set, imo the best from this year. The back of the box: My first post, just registered to post the pics from the back of the box, but I have been here for about half a year.:) I was a huge LEGO fan as a kid, and recently again got into it.:) I just bought last year the 42042, 8110, 42030 and 42043 sets from the Technic line and they are all amazing. :)
