    Lego shall do more of this on technic, less brand loyalty, more playability and creativity

    I'm finding that I enjoy these smaller Technic sets more than the larger ones. I feel like they are both fun to build, but while the large ones have a few neat functions I mess with before confining them to a shelf, the small ones I find myself picking up and fiddling with a lot more often. This one seems to be in the same vein as the small rover & stunt buggy from last year, which seems very promising. I think this and the Ducati are my go-to sets this wave

  • @FirriApril
    @FirriApril 4 дні тому +20

    McLaren Speedtail could make use of the sand blue fenders. Since Lego chose the P1 for their large supercar model, it leaves the Speedtail as a potential smaller model, and the most iconic paint scheme of that car is a bluish silvery colour, which would match these parts

    • @boeing777pilot5
      @boeing777pilot5 4 дні тому

      The colour also looks similar to the ‘launch edition’ McLaren Senna, but we already have a Senna GTR in this scale, so I’d say the Speedtail could be a good option/candidate

  • @PlasticToa
    @PlasticToa 4 дні тому +12

    Despite the more modern pieces, something about this set's shaping and color choices makes it _feel_ like something from the 90s or early 2000s.
    We're not quite back to the days of roboriders and cyberslam yet but any step outside of endless stream of licensed sports cars is a win in my book

    @AHYL88 4 дні тому +4

    I like this one; it's pretty much Technic in its purest and undiluted form with the focus on functions first and foremost. It may not be the prettiest looking model but it's definitely the most interesting one we've seen in a long while as underwater type crafts are very rarely done in this theme. For context, the last time we got a Technic based submarine was back in 1997 as the main build; there was one from 2017 as part of the Ocean Explorer ship but it was one of the side builds.

    If Lego is continuing their partnership with Koenigsegg, that colour is a near identical match for the blue on the Regera. Or the McLaren Speedtail

    Rumous are saying 42208 is a Valkyrie, So far no rumours of a C8 recolour launching so likely the sand blue will be for the Valkyrie as rumoured price puts it as part of the car transporter gang. That said the 2F2F R34 has also popped up rumoured as 42210 but the rumoured price of $139 would say it's at the larger scale Dom's charger os sp wpi;d ne imlikely to use that mudguard

    This set should only cost like $20 - $30
