February 25, 20232 yr Walmart has some of the March sets in store BTW Edited February 25, 20232 yr by Lemerbrix
February 25, 20232 yr Apparently 42159 will be a Yamaha MT. Considering the price point ($250) it's probably the successor to the BMW bike. https://www.brickfanatics.com/lego-technic-42159-yamaha-mt-2022-rumoured Edited February 25, 20232 yr by LvdH
February 25, 20232 yr There must be a huge amount of new/specialized/big parts, if the price is the same and the piece count is 400 less
February 25, 20232 yr TLG should just call this theme "Speed Champions 2.0 - Now With Bikes!" and be done with it.

If it’s the same scale as the BMW without 80ish stickers then I’m all for that. I personally like the black/turquoise colour scheme. Although it will definatly be a ‘buy from Amazon when it’s on sale’ if it is indeed the same price with 400 pieces less…

Hmm if the rumour is true, then either the price OR the piece count is off. 17 Cent per piece is more in the range of pneumatic or even rc models... *Edit: And just one year after the BMW is a really strange move.. I mean instead you could get the 42158 AND 42160, left with RC and over 500 pieces more...? 42146 Liebherr LR 13000 $449.99 2,883 August 2023 42156 Peugeot 9X8 Hypercar $199.99 1,775 May 2023 42157 Skidder John Deere 948L-II $174.99 1,492 June 2023 42158 NASA Perseverance Mars Rover $89.99 1,132 June 2023 42159 Yamaha MT 2022 $249.99 1,475 June 2023 42160 Audi RS Q e-tron $159.99 913 August 2023 42161 Lamborghini Hurrican $49.99 806 August 2023 Edited February 26, 20232 yr by Jundis

February 26, 20232 yr 42162 Bugatti Bolide Agile Blue 905 pieces 49,99€ 01.08.2023 ( I heard about a June release so it might release sooner) From Promobricks Edited February 26, 20232 yr by Lego_Minecraft_Goat

Not that it wouldn't be enough..but seeing the scattering of sets, and "surprise" announcings, it's just a matter of time we get used to it.

Sounds like another set which releases in a second color, like the fiat 500, yellow and blue🤔

March 1, 20232 yr Wow, if that part count and price are correct, there would better be some really fancy new parts. I mean, something like a hub with rechargeable battery with more ports than 4, lighting kit included, etc.

You will be able to get it for € 579,99 in no-time I'm not planning to get it; I'm stuck with PF generation, despite that - physio therapy for my pet cost me twice the Liebherr price and when I must chose between pets and Lego, peys are priority...
March 1, 20232 yr 8 minutes ago, Jim said: It was a tongue in cheek comment. I have noticed it... I know it is meant as fun...but still it is very expensive. I'm certain that there will be interesting new parts in Liebherr but they could be ordered separately when needed...

I mean, I can imagine stuff that in principle could justify the price. Something like a new hub with capabilities similar to the RI hub, lighting kit, extension cables, new metal hook, many many new frames and counterweight parts, perhaps a new motor with power similar to the buggy motor or at least PF XL motor, etc. But I don't think any of these will happen, except maybe the frames and counterweights.

You mean 88019 ;) Theoretically it can be anything as the large Mindstorms Technic hub's number is 88016 so this range is not only reserved for motors and accessories. I'm not sure though that creating yet another hub for the platform would be really a step in the right direction.
