I wonder if it'll break 42025 record for most panels in single set?

How many panels does the 42025 have? :wink:

50?

42039 - 47

42025 - 50

42052 - ?

42052 Heavy Lift Helicopter looks amazing! After seeing the prelims I was sceptical but after seeing the high-res images of the box I'm almost sold, just waiting for Jim's review now :wink:

Posted

It looks 16-19L to me.

That helicopter looks better when proper pictures are published, but still more of parts pack for me. I wonder if it'll break 42025 record for most panels in single set?

Almost, i think it has 49 :tongue:

Apologies, i tend to keep up, but only skimmed the last page for pics, my own mistake i suppose.

Anyway, good news!

Heli seems to have working rudder, check out the tail fins!

EDIT Also working rear wing, check out arrows on box's rear side!

I'd say it is 19L... The panel is 5L long and 3L wide --> ~6L needed to curve around x2 + 5L in the center + 2L for the end points = 19L in total

And I think it uses two of them in the B-model assuming the cockpit is symmetrical.

Another 12 hours and we'll know for sure...

Definitely 19L! :thumbup:

I made this mock up just to be sure:

800x450.jpg

Using a white 19L axle obviously, but it fits like in the pictures, so I can't see it being any other length :thumbup:

I think that the helicopter looks better just because of the quality of the pic. Nothing has changed much from the preliminary images except some stickers and the cargo on the bottom.

The 42054 Claas Xerion 5000 TRAC VC sounds promising. The fact that is a 2h set, sounds like it will be a bigger tractor (picture looks like a tractor) than ever before!

Does anyone know whether the Xerion will be the top 2h model?

Judging by the set number, BWE will be the flagship set of 2016 - however the "biggest" set will be "Ultimate IP Vehicle", rumored as first Technic UCS set ever. Xerion and Volvo seem to be the smaller sets of 2H.

So the Xerion will be more likley the same size as the 9393 tractor?

I saw that there are 2 mini turntables in the B model. In the A model one is already beneath the rotors. Where can the other one be?

Inside the body of the chopper, driving the second rotor, so they both rotate at the same speed? I'm guessing...

More likely 1000-1300 set something like customized pickup.

When reviews are available (maybe in 2 hours), will there be a "Front Page" announcement?

Just waiting, and waiting and waiting...

Sariel's reviews are allways at 12 AM California time. I don't know about Jim's.

Wasn't it "Ultimate IP car"? Or did I miss something really big?

Thanks,

An obvious thought just struck me - the red fire engine has been withdrawn to make all the necessary changes to incorporate LOTS of red #3 connectors! Why haven't we thought of that before? ;)
