HectorMB Posted March 27, 2021 Posted March 27, 2021 What a disappointment. Unfortunately, it might be not a fake, as the upper part of the imaged indeed fits with the part we already saw in the Zetros image. But also, the size doesn't fit with the announced number of pieces, i don't know... Quote
Snorrowitz Posted March 27, 2021 Posted March 27, 2021 Just in time to see it. That didnt look right. Hope it's a fake. Quote
Jeroen Ottens Posted March 27, 2021 Posted March 27, 2021 It has the yellow tracks and some new triangular panel (3x9 or 3x11?) on the top of the hood, so it would be a really good fake... Normally I reserve judgement until I've seen reviews, but this model really does not seem to match the price. So hopefully that gets corrected before the release Quote

keymaker Posted March 27, 2021 Posted March 27, 2021 It looks very poorly for revealed price... Totally "meh" Quote
Jockos Posted March 27, 2021 Posted March 27, 2021 There is something in me that says it's not the model I am looking for Also, shouldn't the red line at the bottom be yellow, instead?? Quote
Dylan M Posted March 27, 2021 Posted March 27, 2021 If it's The Flagship, well so be it, but the Price won't fit...(as per image perspective) Quote
Bartybum Posted March 27, 2021 Posted March 27, 2021 (edited) It looks quite nice, but I’m surprised that for the rumoured price it doesn’t seem like they included a tilting bucket (which begs questions about the rear). This makes me think it’s only gonna have a single smart hub now, which is really worrying considering it’s meant to cost as much as the Liebherr. It’s definitely a big set - going by the main sprocket it’s as big as EricTrax’s Liebherr bulldozer, but if the functions aren’t as good then there’s no point getting this at all if you already have 42100. Lot of Instagram comments saying it’s ugly, which is funny considering the real thing’s just as ugly. I wouldn’t be surprised if the rumoured prices this year for the C+ sets were wrong. If this does indeed have only one hub, then I wouldn’t expect TLG to charge more than €350. Otherwise lmao TLG get stuffed, you been sitting around ABS fumes too long Edited March 27, 2021 by Bartybum Quote
suffocation Posted March 27, 2021 Posted March 27, 2021 If there was ever a time to bring back the black 3l pins, this was it. Almost pukin'. Quote

As for being hard to tell from 2L pins, that's only an issue if the builder's IQ is single-digit. Quote
MajklSpajkl Posted March 28, 2021 Posted March 28, 2021 Yet again, buying just the new parts (yellow treads and some panels) from Bricklink will perfectly satisfy my interests and needs. Maybe, not sure yet, but maybe it looks just a little bit better than the 8275. The Liebherr from @eric trax outshines it like the seven suns. One must be mad to buy this for such a high price - definetly better to buy another Liebherr and eric's instructions for the dozer. From what could be seen so far, the Mercedes wins as flagship if you ask me...those new tires alone win against the CAT. Quote

Nah those LAs on the front are gonna be for lifting it. The fake ones that look like pneumatic actuators on the sidearms of the bucket would be the ones to tilt it. Quote

Ngoc Nguyen Posted March 28, 2021 Posted March 28, 2021 (edited) If I have to throw away 300$ for a Technic bulldozer, I'd rather spend it on 8275 instead. At least it's immediately playable. Also, I have candies. Edited March 28, 2021 by Ngoc Nguyen Quote

DrJB Posted March 28, 2021 Posted March 28, 2021 This might be old ... I found this on youtube. For those interested in seeing what it looks like. Quote

msk6003 Posted March 28, 2021 Posted March 28, 2021 Looks like bucket has to many holes, only include 1 hub, and use plenatry hub on drive sprocket. Quote
Bartybum Posted March 28, 2021 Posted March 28, 2021 Hang on, this thing was rumoured to have 3854 pieces... there's no way in hell it has that many. It doesn't look much larger than 8275, which had 1384 pieces. If this has any more than 2.5k I'd be really surprised... Quote

msk6003 Posted March 28, 2021 Posted March 28, 2021 And it seems like don't use XL actuator. Looks like normal L size actuator. Quote
