Will that set be offered exclusively at LEGO shop? If yes it seems expensive at full price without a good discount.

Scale concern:

Looking at size of the real JD 9620 is attached yellow trailer not too small and lightweighted comparing to the tractor?

Hey, at least it has some basic functions for a 30$ Technic set unlike the 50$ pullbacks. But yeah, big let down for the premiere of this IP. Let's hope the next John Deere will be substantially bigger. So buy this set if you want a continuation, even if it doesn't satisfy your AFOL needs. Just saying.

Still more functionality than $50 Pullbacks. This set is pretty good. I dont expected much more functions. I probably wont build trailer, but idk yet. Also price point is very good. A lot of parts in new colors, some basic functionality, license for only $30. I think 42120 is better deal because of higher piece count but this set is also good deal.

Imho both @Jurss Xerion and @SaperPL Fastrac are way better builts at that scale.

My JCB tractor is a bit fragile, but with ability to make specific parts for sets, the Lego could make something on similar chassis and make more robust top, not necessarily with openable hood.

The Lego trailer seems really cool and simple in comparison to my trailer being over complicated and heavy.

I don't know about that. The Xerion is an amazing set, and that was the first from the CLAAS brand. The D11T is big and complex, and there hasn't been a CAT set before. Why couldn't the John Deere set - especially a tractor this big - be the same size as the Xerion, with the same level of complexity?

This set is very weirdly scaled - if TLG wanted this level of functionality, why not just make it like the Mini Xerion? That tractor has functions relative to its size, unlike this one. This one is stuck in a kind of inbetweeny limbo in terms of scale, and the least TLG could have done is put in an engine!

The mini Xerion has more complex steering AND a PTO driven by the rear axle. So more functionality than this :D

I'm liking the set. Like orange, I tend to buy any set that comes in Green, so.... But, I'll have to see what improvements can be made. Nice to see some new parts in Green.

Also, this set is going to sell well in the USA. You can put "John Deere" on a sausage here and it will triple sales. I can't believe it took TLG so long.

Funny that on Lego.com it says:

  • Packed with authentic functions – Inspired by a real tractor, this LEGO® Technic™ toy version features steering, a driver’s cab with a turning seat, and a tipping trailer

That doesn't seem very packed!:sceptic:

@R0Sch Thanks for the studio file! Will build it this afternoon and share pictures!

Could the seat turn together with the steering? That would be a funny function.

Notice that Sariel didn't include 42136 in his post about upcoming reviews, even though this set is supposed to be released soon. Last time this happened a certain set was recalled before it even had a chance to hit the shelf.

Or a more recent last time LEGO did not offer all Technic sets for review, like it happened with the 2022 Monster Jam sets...

I think it was very poor. We got new tyres.. but... No 4 wheel drive, unrealistic 3 points, no diff locks (obviously) and a tedious build. And i love tractors. But i'm not a fan of that set at all.

At least Xerion looked (IMHO) realistic, but look at this Deere roof :wacko: 

At least they could use curved slopes at the side to achieve some kind of realistic look.
