True. But I'd think it'd make more sense to show off both vehicles fully up front, then a rear shot of the truck would display the whole "transporter" thing better. But who knows at this point.

If the Volvo FMX in 42175 is a flatbed truck, then I reckon the front of the box is gonna show it and the EC230 separately, with the excavator loaded onto the truck on the back of the box.

Moar from Sariel!

Moreover, there have been some rather reasonably priced sets recently. Take 42178 for example - around the same amount of parts as 42049 eight years before it, and it's the same price. The upcoming Volvo set has a pretty agreeable price tag as well.

Well, there's Porsha, and also The Martian.

I think it's used on actual space/exoplanetary equipment. Plus, Porsha Crystal wears it in Sing 2.

Who wants a Sariel review? I do, I do!

No, it's just that this set never had an official B-model.

Woah, C-models already? Cool.

From the evidence I gathered, shops in my area haven't even received deliveries; the sets are still listed as "expected on 1 March". And I tell somewhat of a lie: Smyths did have a couple of copies of the Julian set, but that was it. EDIT: Smyths have just now received over fifteen copies of the Isabelle set! Better late than never...

Or is that "well-paid"?

Was out and about today, and literally nowhere had these sets in stock. Are they a limited release or something? Seriously.

Shame the set isn't.

@Lyichir @vizzitor Thank you both for the info! Looks cute.

Brickset has listed Fauna's House as a promotional set. The nature of that promotion will likely be revealed in time.

It'd be great to see some vehicle sets as well - Isabelle's RV, for one.

Brickset review is up.

Brickset review is up.

I'm in Northampton. You?

Availability is pretty spotty here in the UK - some stores have the sets in stock, some - including my local - don't.

That would be totes amazeballs! Actually hoping for it to happen.

42004. The product description labels it as "iconic", and it really is. Only 246 parts, and yet it's packed out with functions. It's the set that got me back into Technic.

Tomorrow.

@Davidz90 @Frequenzberater Both English and German are Germanic languages, hence the similarities! In fact, whenever anyone is speaking German, I can almost understand it.

That is the most interesting spelling of "axle" I have ever seen.
