I'm really thinking, if TLG is to outdo themselves this year again, the next flagship can be a crawler transporter, with the same scale as the BWE.

The flagship can be anything. Let's not turn this into a "or they can do this" topic.

Usually when does Lego release names of 2H sets?

There's no fixed date. Last year we got information (names) about the 2H sets early. There's no telling when we will get info.

well LEGO usually uses nuremberg toy fair for this purpose when we ordinary mortals want to know which sets will be summer sets...just one comment; in (excelent) Xerion review Jim mentioned something about CLAAS Lexion Harvester with smaller tires at the rear than on Xerion ones - perhaps there something on it. where is smoke there can be fire.

I think original sentence is like that:

And what to think of a potential new CLAAS Lexion Combine Harvester with new smaller versions of the CLAAS tires in the rear.

I know as much, or rather as little, as you do. So my comments are mere speculation. The Nuremberg toy fair is the place to show the 2H models. We usually have information about the sets earlier.

Maybe it's a good idea to just be patient and wait for someone showing up with pics and facts?

That sounds like a great idea

KEEP CALM

AND ENJOY

THE 2016 SETS

My theory is that they completly overhaul that fire truck.Maybe making it second biggest set of 2H 2017.Fire truck has lot of potential to make it great seller.That preliminary design is pretty bad for official set.

Welcome to EB's discussion and speculation thread, where people will occasionally forget the rules and beg / nag for information and pictures, and Jim will occasionally appear to remind them.

In the catalog there were two big trucks, one had tracks for each wheels. I can't look at them now but I later. There are a lot more sets too.

Tracked truck ! Since there's already an arctic truck I think that new one is a tracked SUV for 2H. Or better yet, crawler transporter

Or maybe that tracked truck is the 1H RC tracked racer...

Crawler transporter?Please tell me what interesting functions could have?Pretty boring if you ask me.

Maybe that truck is B model of tracked racer.

Truck isnt that airport rescue vehicle?

cant be as the tracked racer is a lime green ripsaw, not a truck

What if that truck is mercedes benz truck of the future and for year 2045 as there was competition last year.

One version is road version with package to make it offroad with tracks?Or there are two separate versions, but less likely.

So, since this is a speculation topic as well, anyone wanna speculate on which 2015 sets will be sticking around for another year (like the 42030 from 2014 this year)? The Arocs seems a given, but anything else? 42039 seems like a favorite and would be my bet as well.

its useally the biggest sets that stay...

Big 2015 sets will be here till 2018, and the small ones will probably disappear in 2017

Okay, but do the BMW bike use Porsche arch pieces?

Curious.

The BMW set is a dirt bike, not a car.

You mean this car panel piece?

The Firetruck is not gone.

Woo-hoo! That's good news. I saw dokludi's replica yesterday and I must say I'm excited for it!

I finished the construction manual. Here you'll find.

Lego Technic 42051 Replica

I don't know if they usually do it for Technic, but I wonder if any Technic set drawings will be shown soon, like with Nexo Knights and Ninjago.

Drawings? What do you mean by that? I don't think I've ever seen a concept drawing of any kind for Technic. Can you show us an example of what Nexo Knights stuff you're talking about?

As I wrote somewhere - I expect in the next years this two licensed sets:

- on 99% we will get a CLAAS Lexion harvester and as B-model there will be a CLAAS tractor. As usually the licences are for more as just one set and an harvester is a logical step by CLAAS licence. And as harvester is using big and small wheels - tractor as a B-model is a logical step.

- I expect as a next VOLVO model an front-end loader. There are many functions on such a loaders so a great playability is guaranteed.

I'm not sure if we'll get those sets in 2017 but I expect minimal one of them 'till 2019.

Those concept drawings are made for the cartoon series/movies - which indeed contain official sets or variants of them. There is no such for Technic.

Another Volvo loader? I don't think so somehow. The Class combine sounds a bit more likely, though. About time we had a combine!

If we do get another loader, I'd like it to be a Liebherr model. With Porsche and now BMW in the mix, it'd be brilliant to see more licenses added to the pot.

from license point of view this is reasonable thinking, but I would like Volvo licence to be "used" for backhoe size like 8455 set with new thin pneumatic cylinders at the front, and not for front end loader; we had one very special two years ago as flagship what every Eurobricker knows. So I don't think that we will see another front end loader.

for Volvo backhoe LEGO just have to recreate pneumatic system from 8455 with new version and perhaps new tractor tires or tires with pattern like Unimog???

These drawings were made by CM4Sci last year

depicting some Ninjago and Nexo Knights sets.

We already got two front-end loaders. Why more?

But I'm with you about the CLAAS harvester, it could be a good set.
