Its me or that bollide screams its set released in early 00s?

Which I really dig, because its nice throwback.

Its definitely something different from modern technic aesthetics.

Do you mean some skeletal supercar made of black beams with yellow accents? 
I was only looking at it as a successor to the McLaren Senna due remarkably similar design of the frame and other subassemblies. Now, your post makes me think differently :grin:

And high usage of technic panels.

I see some bricks in yellow, that I had as kid in dune buggy in year 2002.

 

Not mention boxart with photoshoped racetrack, this screams racers/technic from that era too.

 

This set was meant to be released around year 2003, but they postponed it to 2023. Its joke, Bollide is new car :tongue: .

I'm really curious about how this side profile is going to be replicated in Technic.

I guess it'll be a blend between the Mustang and the Corvette, no big surprises at this scale. But I really hope we finally get the small mudguard piece in black.

I think it may look like that (it is only my guess, not a leak, not a pre-release prototype, only my personal idea of its visual appearance):

I took a 42138 Mustang Shelby and applied 1-stud lowered "42098 unofficial Camaro"'s "face" to fit it under the "eyebrow". I think it looks good enough, only the rear part needs some polishing to raise the bonnet line, like Corvette has.
For sure, no stickers are applied (yet?).

Nice illustration @Void_S !

Funny thing would be if Lego really use a brickbuild solution for the headlights like you did and not use prints, as it's the other way around on the Nascar :D

Yeah, that would be fun, as a NASCAR "car" is just an integral frame (its safety "cage" inside is a part of the frame) with an engine and seat, covered by a solid piece of plastic shaped as an original car body (no doors, no trunk, no headlights, not taillights, simply nothing) where everything is just painted on the "body". Like at modern RC toys.

May we got a single pre-molded "body" with some pinholes around? And a sheet of stickers for it to decorate :laugh_hard:

That could be a cool concept, like an extension of Forma, but IMO not for Technic.

Not sure if this belongs necessarily in this thread, but Tire 68.7 x 27 S (previously only in the '89 Batmobile) will be available in a smallish Ninjago set next year! Curiously, also some large CV joints for footpegs...I think the rendering makes it appear DBG even though it's most likely still LBG.

not bad, but the ducktail looks too big.

I think the toilet roll paper they introduced this year would look better (or its wider version)

2023 Ninjago sets have been revealed on Brickset. Can't imagine Technic is far behind.

There are some interesting plastic low-profile wheels in 71780 that could be used in small technic cars (but no axle hole may be a downside)

They'd also be useful for port and cargo equipment that uses solid wheels.

42147 Dump Tuck appeared on Instagram Legoleaks...

Looks official with the new small panels in Dark Blue (dump bed) and orange cab. Not what I expected... :-/

Also more blurry pics of both Monster Jam trucks and the Snow Groomer, the last one looks really cool :-)
