September 12, 201212 yr Considiring these sets are going to be here for the first half, they're pretty cool. However the f1 racer with no suspension will be a let down but I figure that is too much to ask for a 1h set. The handler may be cool. It looks compact and maybe as dense as 8043 (lots of gears!). No suspension... This is not new. But a letdown? Think about it: according to Cweqto, it includes one of the rarest tyres LEGO has produced. Yes, the ones you need to build Nathanael Kuipers's Supercar.

But I am not dead because it has no suspension, I wouldn't expect it to have suspension.
September 12, 201212 yr Yah, when it comes out, you can buy a hundred of them from the LEGO company. But I am not dead because it has no suspension, I wouldn't expect it to have suspension. It could be hidden, like previous 1:8 scale F1 sets. If not, there is always modding. By the way, am I the only one who has not seen pictures for any of 2013 sets?
September 13, 201212 yr It could be hidden, like previous 1:8 scale F1 sets. If not, there is always modding. By the way, am I the only one who has not seen pictures for any of 2013 sets? google ' lego 42000 ' on google images, should be there, around 3rd picture
September 13, 201212 yr google ' lego 42000 ' on google images, should be there, around 3rd picture Whoa, can't make out anything, but it looks good! It's definately them rare tyres! The gods in Billund have listened! Thanks for the link btw!
September 13, 201212 yr the german webshop "Technicminds" has listed the first half year sets. all sets ar not available yet 14,99€ hovercraft 19,99€ Wheel loader action racecar action Racebuggy 29,99€ Motocross bike it has a great offroad pattern on the tires 59,99 material handler with a scrapclaw like this only a little bit smaller 99,99€ Formula racecar it seems that it has tires similar to 81,6x34ZR on the actual 44772 rims from 9398. and it seems that it uses this parts for suspension on the front axle.

September 13, 201212 yr If I remember correctly those "racers" use winding motors and coud barely be called technic. This is realy stuf targeted exclusivly to KFOL and should IMO be moved to Racers theme. Edit: I am surprised by high price of grand prix races. It look more of a 79,99 euro set to me. It better have lots of parts, since it dont have any power functions, gearbox and interesting panels. Chopper is 1100pcs and 90euro, ADAC truck is also 1100pcs and PF and is 100 euro. According to this Grand prix racer should contain around 1300 pcs. Edited September 13, 201212 yr by Cwetqo
September 13, 201212 yr A 57cm racer without suspension is just not right, I can't imagine how "empty" the F1's body is. The leaked pictures probably does not show all the function. Edited September 13, 201212 yr by kou
September 13, 201212 yr This 1half doesnt seem interesting for me.Especially If there, isnt complex set with power function. I hope 2half will be better.
September 13, 201212 yr Were there new pictures? I don't see any. Hello, the Racer has 48cm... Was there an error in the leaked picture that claimed it was 57cm?
September 13, 201212 yr there is a nda on the pictures so it is not legal to make them public. maybe the size measurement is a way to show lego where is the leak Edited September 13, 201212 yr by efferman
September 13, 201212 yr as far as i know all of these sets will be released till march 2013. most of them in january Edited September 13, 201212 yr by efferman
September 13, 201212 yr I see the date on the Racer says Feb instead of Jan, that is why I was asking if it was the spring set like the logging truck and the supercar. there is a nda on the pictures so it is not legal to make them public. maybe the size measurement is a way to show lego where is the leak Those fuzzy pics from last week. Brickipedia has a picture of it.
September 13, 201212 yr i have asked my source what could be the 480mm height: 94 width: 378 length: 480 seems to be the size of the box.
September 13, 201212 yr Any news about the flagship set of 2013? Thanks in advance! i have asked my source what could be the 480mm height: 94 width: 378 length: 480 seems to be the size of the box.
September 13, 201212 yr Any news about the flagship set of 2013? Thanks in advance! No still to early yet. But you could say that the F1 car is the first half flagship set.
September 13, 201212 yr I am excited for the F1 car because it is new to me as I don't have a technic F1 car and the parts should be different from what I have. The claw machine should be interesting as well.
September 14, 201212 yr Author I have better pictures of all sets ... the 57cm seem to agree Wai, wai, wai, wait! You have the pictures?! Could you send them to me through PM? Edited September 14, 201212 yr by sama
September 14, 201212 yr lot of hype over the cross tires...why? good pattern that looks realistic? Yes, something like this:
September 14, 201212 yr Wai, wai, wai, wait! You have the pictures?! Could you send them to me through PM? I 2nd this!
