This means that the app will be upgraded to control also a standard backhoe excavator, making excavator mocs possible. I'm curious to see how they designed the bucket in the backhoe configuration. By the way, in this configuration you lose the 7th function (openable bucket). I have started a model B backhoe of my own and now I know more about the internal structure I can crack on with it. I will be interesting as to how they go about the design. Quote

I'd prepare for something like $450-500USD though I would bet on 449$, if Lego continues to use the 1:1 exchange rate. Of course, this set doesn't come out before october, so there is still some time for a particular president to change that ;) Quote

Maaboo the Witch Posted June 21, 2019 Posted June 21, 2019 That evens out to about £400.77, so let's call it £400. Quote

Most Technic sets are more in $. you are right, I only checked the other recent large expensive sets. Although the Bugatti is actually cheaper, so anything between 400 and 500$ is possible I guess.

Also, if you remember, 42082 was 70 more in $ than in €. And it was nearly twice cheaper in general. So $550 is also possible. Edited June 21, 2019 by dimaks13 Quote
Jubuilder Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 Has someone already built a fitting T-284 MOC in the same scale? Would this be a good community project? Quote

efferman Posted June 23, 2019 Posted June 23, 2019 Maybe transparent 3x4x1 walls with stickers on it. Quote
Erik Leppen Posted June 23, 2019 Posted June 23, 2019 (edited) My guess is, transparent printed panels 1x4x3. Edit: great minds think alike Edited June 23, 2019 by Erik Leppen Quote

Uitlevering week 40 oktober 2019 This presale from Otten is based on an import from Germany Lego Netherlands does not approve a presale before August I have this information from an official NL Lego dealer wich I shall not mention at this moment. This dealer will start a presale on 8-1 Besides that I read the conditions of Otten and I laughed my megablocks off its 99% against all internet sale laws, as well as NL as the entire EU I would think twice before buying from such a lawbreaker.

TeamThrifty Posted June 23, 2019 Posted June 23, 2019 I find the presale price very interesting as it starts to pull it down to a more affordable number - if they can do it for presale, the retailers will also offer similar i suspect. low 300's is a lot better than 400. Maybe we'll see some on amazon for 330 euro's... Quote
incognito Posted June 24, 2019 Posted June 24, 2019 40% off for Technic Models is not unusual (at least in Germany). So if you are willing to wait, sub 300€ could be possible. Quote
Technic-Kobaltz Posted June 24, 2019 Posted June 24, 2019 Very true incognito, I have picked up all the flagship Technic sets from amazon for anywhere between 30-45% discount over the last few years, just takes some patience. Quote
