I’m not against it, to be honest. In reality there are 3 waves already: the usual Jan one, the usual Aug one, and the oft-forgotten Dec one. I wouldn't be surprised if TLG is to take some sets in the Aug wave and release them earlier, like in June.

Makes me wonder whether the translations into VNmese are right or wrong. Or maybe it's Schrodinger translations. Perhaps catalog printing companies have Tarzan as translator due to economy...

The december sets are the next years sets.

You mean the set is in a dual mode, both the excavator and loader exists, until you open the box and see for your self which one it is? ?

I mean since "scooping machine" can refers to either an excavator or a loader, translating either of them into "scooping machine" in Vietnamese is both right and wrong . But your interpretation makes sense as well and I like it haha. Edited January 3, 20196 yr by Ngoc Nguyen

January 10, 20196 yr Hoping they will make the XL sprocket in black.. got some agricultural equipment in mind that could use this sprocket.
January 10, 20196 yr As I think they will not make two sets with the same  NEW pieces in the same year! Knowing that pieces is the important  one ?
January 10, 20196 yr Why not? This one, for example, appeared in more than one set in its debut year.
January 11, 20196 yr I've never seen any reason for not having more than one occurrence of the same new piece
January 11, 20196 yr ...idea...Big Idea ? ... for using that "Important New Pieces "... one Big idea at a time... Â

If TLG can use it in multiple sets, they will use it in multiple sets. There is no valid reason not to. There  will be a big excavator coming this year. Mark my words

That won’t happen this year. Given the fact that TLG likes to minimize the parts used per range of sets. But maybe next year. Just now, Ngoc Nguyen said: Jim saw the catalogue!!!!! Most definitely not. I don’t have a friend of a friend. But there have been rumors. I predicted a Bulldozer or Excavator without these rumors and now I’m semi-convinced it will be the Excavator.
