1gor Posted January 28, 2024 Posted January 28, 2024 Somehow we are in era of formula pullback. All in all from marketing point of view probably good idea to attract younger kids to Lego Technic. It seems that it has decent part of black panels, but (as usual) no slick tires ... Quote
Jockos Posted January 28, 2024 Posted January 28, 2024 This set is exactly what I imagine to be a Technic GWP. Not too big, not too small, and perfectly accompanies its bigger brother. 2 hours ago, 1gor said: Somehow we are in era of formula pullback.

I think it's just a matter of time to have some smaller slick tires in the theme. Icons will introduce them firstly, sadly.. Quote

Once you try, they pop back up again like wack-a-mole! @Jim with Admin power might be able to zap it. I can only advise never using the uploader , which is not the most helpful, but so far the only solution! Quote
Akbalder Posted January 28, 2024 Posted January 28, 2024 It looks quite nice. When is it supposed to be released? The set number could mean that it was planed for january. Quote
Ksen48 Posted January 28, 2024 Posted January 28, 2024 According to information from (https://www.stonewars.de/lego-2024/#lego-technic-2024) the release is scheduled for March 24. For its scale it is very good. Can we say that this is a remaster of 42026 from licenses? Quote
MichaelV Posted January 28, 2024 Posted January 28, 2024 (edited) F.Y.I, this foto was first posted uncropped on a Belgian (Walloon part) FB page. The set was avaliable in a Walloon retail store according to the poster. Edited January 28, 2024 by MichaelV spelling Quote

Darth Phallus Posted January 28, 2024 Posted January 28, 2024 240 parts, 26,99€, it should be the same scale as 42166 McLaren Neom Extreme E buggy Quote

From the pic i guess 42165 is 13 studs wide, which is also the case for 42166. In real life, F1 cars are 2 meters wide, but I'm not sure about the measurements of the Extreme E buggy. For me it looks like a vehicle of the size of a dakar racer like the Audi RS Q e-tron, which is 2.3 meters wide. My personal OCD always starts calculating if a new leaked or released vehicle might fit the 15-studs-wide-trucks scale, and if this F1 car is 13 studs wide, it's very close to that scale (2 meters would be 12 studs in that scale), which makes it an instant buy for me.

One equation with two unknowns so the solution set is not finite. Expressing y as a function of x, #5 is quadratic in y² so that's relatively straightforward but #4 is a cubic, so that'll get difficult. Quote

May take some time to solve it, though. On the other hand, time machines suggest y = near forty-two. Wolfram Alpha comes up with a bit of lengthy equation when asked to solve for y (or x) that (roughly) seem to point in the same direction. And that may also be the reason why you can't delete it. OK, Deep Thought, aka @Jim, most probably can. // Aluminum hat off. Thorsten. P.S.: "The Uploader" - is that Matrix related? Edited January 28, 2024 by Toastie Quote

Akbalder Posted February 2, 2024 Posted February 2, 2024 It seems to be about the size of the monster truck pullbacks. How do they explain the price increase from 20€ to 27€?! Quote

Kostq Posted February 2, 2024 Posted February 2, 2024 The price for the Mclaren E-something Dakar truck is up too. The piece count wasn't higher than the MJ sets. Also remember that 42090 and 42091 had the same price as all of them whilst being 120-130pcs :D Quote

Kostq Posted February 5, 2024 Posted February 5, 2024 (edited) The LEGO website had a 7sec video and some promo shots and I've kinda recreated the F1 car... 239/240 parts are on display. There are some invisible parts from the press materials are still making me wonder what should be there - all are colored in LIME. Full res file from the bottom is here. The RED pin-axle connector is barely visible in the front - the upper panel 3L AXLE holder has to be connected somewhere. I've hidden the wing below. The upper wing remains. I still wonder WHY the RED one? You can see the limitations of the space there. Edited February 5, 2024 by GTS Quote
Kostq Posted February 22, 2024 Posted February 22, 2024 (edited) I've consulted @wojwachbricks as he got hold of a physical set and added the bits I couldn't see from the official photos of the set. The revised IO file is here. Once I get a hold of a physical set I'll finally confirm all the parts are there. Edited March 5, 2024 by Kostq The set is out, got some corrections in. Quote
