Yeah, I'd guess 2 pin 1 axle there.  It's also the 4-6 bent liftarm, not 4-4.

Thank, I missed that one, rotors would hit each otehr with the short one. I'm thinking since we haven't seen the 6x4 bent liftarm and #6 connector in teal/dark torquoise since the 90s (first time for the connector), that they indicate an upcoming model in this color.

I think the supercar and the G-wagon will come in dark purple and teal.

I think teal's more for the unknown watercraft (could be white with teal accents) but I suppose we'll see.  If the G-wagon is teal or purple that might lean me towards buying it instead of skipping it.

Sorry to ruin your teal dreams, but that 6x4 and the #6 connector are just regular green. Here's a better pic and my Studio file: heavy_lift_helicopter.io

How exactly is the winch connected to the surrounding parts? And how is the chain fixed into the drum?

It's this piece, the chain is on its stud and there's a 3L axle sticking in one side that rotates freely, some sort of friction pin-axle in the other

I wrote it some page before but #6 connector in green is extremely rare.(last release is 1999, 3 in 2 set.)

I assume that stud.io file is yours - how would it look if the rear landing gear was moved three studs forward to the LBG 3L axle?

No bueno. A bit cartoonish but closer to a Sikorsky Skycrane. I assume it was designed like this to leave enough space for the cargo/winch. It's better to move it just 1M forward.

a polybag-sized model that doesn't even come in a polybag and doesn't even have its own name or set number.

Brickset lists it now with a set number: 412401.

Yes, saw that too. As I said, Blue Ocean magazine gifts always have a 6 digit set nr. They get packed by themselves, unlike official LEGO polybags. Can't wait to get my hands on this. Much cooler than the usual City magazine gifts.

Kinda think it looks better... How about two studs? Fully acknowledging there's nothing there to stop the gear from pitching over. Also how's it look in 3D?

thats the smallest wrecking ball i've ever seen lol

New mclaren is P1 conformed. Considering GWP's color it can be yellow or LBG. At least I can't find any new piece in this picture. Only has mclaren printed 2x3 panel on top right.

Neon yellow?

[OnyyX]

Photo is for sure fake, looks to be I reckon. The text all looks off. And what even is that build?

[Jockos]

For me it looks real. Some previous GWPs have this box layout, so I think it's legit. About the colour, it looks the P1 will be flame yellow, as the two rings are a different yellow than the other "regular" yellow parts beside them, and the ribbon on the BI is also speaking for itself. I hoped the McLaren to be in purple, but there's hope the G Wagen will be..

Also, it's quite interesting for a Technic GWP, but welcome to be sure.

[thekoRngear]

Like Jokos said does not look fake to me at all. I did miss the posts from the olden days when people would jump to say "it is a fake!!!" here and there. So thanks for that 

And it is most probably getting the yellow/orange colour treatment which is noice.

Yea I agree with others.  Not sure it is fake.  Looks real to me.  What part of the text looks off?  

But the bigger issue is... like @OnyyX said .... what the heck is it?  

[OnyyX]

Besides the fact I have no idea what it is, the "P1" logo on the box looks like its made of bricks if you look very closely
In saying all this, I was 100% hoping for a P1, and a yellow one even more, so I really hope I'm wrong!

I think it's a logo that rotates when the crank is turned.

[Timorzelorzworz]

Looks to me like a stand with turntable to display/rotate the car on top of it

Whatever it is, it's stupid.
