JunkstyleGio Posted June 3, 2019 Posted June 3, 2019 That 4x4 is kind of "Sticker-Heavy"! But it is orange so I will buy it anyway... Quote
Technicallism Posted June 3, 2019 Posted June 3, 2019 Yup not usual orange in 42056 nor yellow but this color does exist quite long time in the inventory just seldom we saw them being used, especially in technic Quote

jovel Posted June 3, 2019 Posted June 3, 2019 To me it looks like the crawler has independent suspension on all wheels. On top of that, the whole front axle can rotate using the turntable. Quote
jorgeopesi Posted June 3, 2019 Posted June 3, 2019 The movement of the liebherr arm looks a little short I hope just in the pic. Quote
Vectormatic Posted June 3, 2019 Posted June 3, 2019 That off-roader looks awesome, spot-on colour and stickers for the cab! Im not a huge fan of all the electronics though, im not huge on building my own RC cars, and having bought some PF stuff a few years back, im still kinda sour that it got replaced already Quote
jorgeopesi Posted June 3, 2019 Posted June 3, 2019 Narrower wheels are always good news too for everyone. Quote

Yevhen Posted June 3, 2019 Posted June 3, 2019 It seemed absolutely impossible to invent a new suspension, that hadn't appeared in mocs, but TLG did it! Quote

MajklSpajkl Posted June 3, 2019 Posted June 3, 2019 I think only the front axle is pendular + (maybe) independent, I assume rear axle is only independent. Quote
Timorzelorzworz Posted June 3, 2019 Posted June 3, 2019 speaking about the color of 42099, for me it looks like regular orange. If it is so, we finally get the tapered 5x11 panel in this color. Otherwise it would mean bright ligth orange, but compared to other sets (for example 60197 city train) it looks darker. I always wondered why we did not see bright light orange in Technic yet, but I think not in this set. Quote

Yes, with only four wheels it makes sense to have a single pendular axle. There's a great explanation at Jennifer Clark's Demag crane page, at the "Suspension" section. Quote
tohan Posted June 3, 2019 Posted June 3, 2019 The only limit is your imagination budget! I know I want them all... Quote
Timorzelorzworz Posted June 3, 2019 Posted June 3, 2019 I'am a bit disappointed about the crane boom design. This was exactly copied from 42082. No innovation here. Quote
StoneWarsDE Posted June 3, 2019 Posted June 3, 2019 (edited) Does anyone know the original source of these images from the catalog in Japan? I'd love to get a DM about this :) Edited June 3, 2019 by StoneWarsDE Quote

Timorzelorzworz Posted June 3, 2019 Posted June 3, 2019 Talking about colors, this year is free of green. This suggests that 42110 Land Rover becomes regular green or lime and we can expect some panels that are missing yet in these colors. I do not think earth green or olive 'cause it looks to military for a jeep Quote
Anio Posted June 3, 2019 Posted June 3, 2019 Well, if that Land Rover has to be green, I think that Dark Green (Lego Earth Green) would be more appropriate. Quote
Yevhen Posted June 3, 2019 Posted June 3, 2019 (edited) I have to buy everything, except the spider crane. Fortunately, I can build this crane of my current parts. Edited June 3, 2019 by Yevhen Quote
AVCampos Posted June 3, 2019 Posted June 3, 2019 What if it uses 28T gears? So far, they're only available in SPIKE Prime... which isn't available yet. Quote
