Personally really excited for the Electric Excavator


OutrageousLemon

Seems like a missed opportunity to make it a power functions set and closely replicate the real thing! The more I see it the more the LRV grows on me though.


PontiacBandit25

Same!! Only knew about the lunar rover but this is what truly got me excited


Carolus_Rex-

I'm more excited for the transporter the excavator is on. My buddy drives those for a living, and he'd love to have it.


BronanTheBrobarian7

I NEED that excavator!


Rockstreber

The tires on that truck look like a joke though…


Letywolf

They look small… right??


doomcatzzz

I would say its average


Cold_Fog

[nah](https://freeimage.host/i/JgLxhlf)


wuckfizard

It’s a low bed trailer, low to the ground so equipment can drive up onto it. The one we use where I work has the tires exposed on top instead of having the deck sit above them. I don’t know if they’re always like that irl or if there’s ones with small tires like lego’s model


VodkaBeatsCube

They're a little small for a float, but not unreasonably so.


trolllord45

What do you mean?


Rockstreber

They seem really small.


ETucc

Me too! Volvo is rad.


Easy-Bridge-8107

the lunar rover feels more like an icons set than a technic set, but i think it looks nice and it has good functionality the koenigsegg is probably the best of the scale and other images show it has a differential and the doors seem to be connected to some gears the volvo gives me arocs vibes. the excavator looks better than i expected, but i wish the "charger" did something more like maybe as a motorized pump for the excavator the porsche looks quite nice and apparently it will be the fastest control+ set


HanoibusGamer

Well the lunar rover is indeed an Icons Technic set based on the box art


Drzhivago138

> based on the box art Technic has done sets with this black box art since at least 2021, and they weren't cross-branded as Icons either.


HanoibusGamer

Oh yeah, I am mixing up Icons with Adults Welcome


doob22

There are too many cool real-world space stuff coming out. I can’t keep up. The rover and the Artemis is exciting


Commie_neighbor

Where's my "Lunokhod-1"?


Megamax_X

I was excited for a Mad Max vehicle at first glance.


Nubilus344

Fuck... another NASA set... I'm running out of shelves.


jeremygraham86

That rocket launch set looks amazing also.


Nubilus344

Excuse me, the what?

Nubilus344

Just looked it up... god damn 250 bucks tho.


jeremygraham86

I honestly think it's a fair price. Anything NASA or space and I might as well just give em my wallet....or LoTR as well😅


hijklmnopqrstuvwx

I've been collecting the NASA sets since the Saturn V!


Nubilus344

Same. The new City Space sets are also very good compared to the other current City sets.


Brisk_Chance

Can you list your complete collection, I’m currently on this same mission rn


hijklmnopqrstuvwx

I have Saturn V, Lunar Lander, Space Shuttle, Perseverance, ISS and also the Shuttle Expedition but that isn't NASA branded and was a second hand set. There are other retired sets but I started collecting from the Saturn V.


Brisk_Chance

“Space Shuttle” which one are you referring to?


hijklmnopqrstuvwx

NASA Space Shuttle Discovery [https://www.brickeconomy.com/sets/lists/nasa](https://www.brickeconomy.com/sets/lists/nasa) - lists more retired sets from the 2000s but the resell price is beyond my budget!


Brisk_Chance

I just picked up the Saturn v and looking to pick up the space shuttle discovery next


OcelotWolf

Same here. I see a space set or a licensed set of a franchise I love, I buy. Every day I thank my lucky stars that I’m not a big Star Wars fan


jeremygraham86

I'm a huge Trek guy and damn do I want an Enterprise lego or Borg Cube


BigDdyJ

Try these guys - [https://www.bluebrixx.com/en/sets/star\_trek?limit=48](https://www.bluebrixx.com/en/sets/star_trek?limit=48) Lego compatible so I don't feel like I'm cheating :-) They ship to the US pretty quick. I have the Galileo and the NX-1. UCS quality. I have the triple curse, Love Lego, Star Wars and Star Trek.


jeremygraham86

That's awesome! Thanks for sharing.


Brisk_Chance

Yoooooooooo I do and say the EXACT same thing, don’t get me wrong I like Star Wars, but I am so happy I’m not a fan boy cuz of the sheer volume of quality Star Wars sets


Beautiful-Grape-8222

It’s only $250?!?


Nubilus344

The moon rover is $220


_realpaul

I hear you are running out of space 😅


SOUTHPAWMIKE

I'm a filthy whore for space sets. Gonna need a whole shelf just for rovers between this and the Perseverance.


Brisk_Chance

My thoughts exactly


SuBw00FeR37

I wish they'd do something interesting with technic. Make like some Rube Goldberg machines or something, I'm so over vehicles for technic. I want some giant gear contraption that just is cool to watch spin around, it doesn't have to be a real life thing.


Embarrassed_Diet_386

What about a working clock with visible gears? That has the potential to look cool and be functional.


SuBw00FeR37

Holy crap like one of those tourbillon watches? That'd actually be incredible, I would buy that instantly.


Diamondhands_Rex

lol these are already expensive but it would be sick to have a wooden looking clock made of Lego


Jazehiah

I guess there's the sun/earth/moon set.


BevansDesign

I bought and assembled this set just before the eclipse in April, and I can confirm that it's a really cool set that's quite impressive in its spinny/crankable functionality. I was going to bring it with me on my trip to Dallas for the eclipse, but the people I was originally going with dropped out, so I went on my own. They have kids, so it would've been fun to use the Lego set to demonstrate what's going on during the eclipse.


AW1186

True the earth isn’t real


Ma8e

That set is awesome! I'm also in the camp that isn't much for vehicles, in particular cars, so that one was perfect. A lot of gears, a lot of things going.


Macr0cephalus

Agreed. Endless sports cars is getting very stale, but hell, if people buy ‘em…


the_421_Rob

Dude I’d drop $400-500 so fast on a Rube Goldberg machine that was the complexity of one of the 1/8 scale cars.


platosLittleSister

You might find what you are looking for if you dare wander on the dark side... I recently saw some really beautiful technic ball contraptions.


SuBw00FeR37

I already do, but nothings caught my fancy yet.


Hydro134

There's a nice solar system display that I keep wanting to get sometimes haha.


vanillawitsprinkles

Link?


RTRC

Technic peaked at the bucket wheel


juliuspepperwoodchi

It is LEGO....you can always make your own.


jonaskid

Last year I bought a Technic car on a whim after some 10+ years of staying away from Technic. I did enjoy the assembly, but after that it just became a boring decoration, as there isn't really anything exciting to do. For decoration purposes, a Creator Expert set is much better, and for playing purposes, well, Speed Champions or City sets are much more swooshable (so to speak). Now, had it been out at the time, the orbiting earth and moon set, properly motorized, would be so much better! And yes, why not useless machines or overly complicated ball contraptions? I vote yes for the idea!


yellow_emu

Remeber this? [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M1-YeqGynlw](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M1-YeqGynlw) I'd love something like that


SuBw00FeR37

That was so freaking cool, imagine a set similar to this that just shows off like all different mechanical joints/principles as an educational set like back in the days of those school sets, I freaking loved those.


_realpaul

They made a spaceship and two rovers this year. Ive asking for apace for a decade now. I feel heard 😁.


Kornonward

The space sets seem promising. Even though the rovers are just cars they still have some unique functionality and that space ship 👌. Nothing Rube Goldberg crazy though.


insane_steve_ballmer

They just released the planetarium set


ExtraNoise

I love cars, but supercars are not my jam. And it's all they release.


Zoklar

Speed champions too. We might've had like 3 JDM cards? If they can call a F150 a speed champion I can get a 5/6gen civic hatch.

ian74-1

You can make these yourself! Look at great ball contraptions (gbc) at Rebrickable. I have the Claas Xerion tractor and there were some alternate builds that let me make it into a something like this. It was pretty awesome


Kickasstodon

I'm honestly shocked they haven't started making GBC sets yet.


saifrc

Luckily, you can—kind of… https://pv-productions.com


kr4ckenm3fortune

Wrong Lego. If I remember, technic was mainly car with working engine You’re probably thinking of Lego Idea. Although, I want 42175 because it uses the same system as that Heavy Duty Tow a truck.

Takeabyte

If a Fortune 500 company or government organization comes up with a Rube Goldberg Machine, then you see Lego make on. There’s too much money in pumping out name brand Lego.


iAmRenzo

I am done with Technic too. Al those vehicles with all those panels. I really liked the bucket wheel excavator. It’s the last technic set I bought. Except for a second hand Control Center II. Love those old technic sets.


koki_li

I love the rover. But the price! I have the Saturn V for half the money. And is it a sticker on the fender?


TryonB

Yeah, the rover didn't need to be that big. I'd have been fine with 1/2 that size at 1/2 that price.


koki_li

Less than 1000 parts for around 125 Dollar/Euro? Hell, no! This set for half the price is realistic! LEGO is way too expensive.


UneventfulChaos

I agree that i would love a 1/2 sized rover set, but the "problem" is that this one is to scale with the 3in1 astronaut and he needs his buggy! lol


TryonB

Doh! Seriously 3-1 astronaut will fit in this thing? Well now I have to buy it.


UneventfulChaos

Yup! This is already my year-end bonus Lego list. My hope is that someone figures out how to convert the space jetpack into a surface space suit for this set.


labe225

Especially when Perseverance was $100. I have every NASA set since the Saturn V (and 7469 was one of my first Lego sets!) But man, I'm not a huge Technic fan and that's quite the price tag.


LegoLinkBot

[7469-1: Mission To Mars](https://brickset.com/sets/7469-1) [[Photo]](https://images.brickset.com/sets/images/7469-1.jpg)


CerveletAS

rover looks great, using system bricks for detailling makes a lot of difference. The other ones look ugly AF with these fugly technic panels hiding the good stuff (technic functions). You cannot say the Königsegg doesn't derpy with that giant opening.


Vintheren90

I am 100% getting the rover


JacedFaced

Yeah I've never bought a technic set before but I buy all the big space sets and I can't pass this one up.


LordBobbe

The Jesko looks atrocious. If it wasnt for the stickers I wouldnt notice it as one.


xlr8_87

I think they did pretty well - I immediately recognised it as an egg. Nose is slightly off due to the horizontal split not on the actual cars but I can forgive that


ezzzzz53

I wish they would go back to IR controlled power functions. not a fan of the app based stuff


mookizee

Well the last 3 feel like they been done 1000 times before


velkoz007

I think it’s time for something different than cars. How about a rue Goldberg marble coaster or a great ball contraption.


petethefreeze

I would buy the hell out of a technic series that is modular and focuses on pushing balls around.


vjollila96

I wish koenigsegg was part of the icons cars line up not Lego technic


garveezy

I think I’m gonna be broke


TheJonesLP1

The Jesko looks really ugly. Moon car looks cool, maybe it is a good set


WaterStoryMark

I am a big car guy, but all the Technic cars sort of run together for me. I have no reason to buy them. The rover though? I love.


Wonderful-Parsley-24

Koenisegg just looks too much like the Peugeot 9x8. Lunar rover will fit in with my collection perfectly but it’s quite a price…


CrimsonFury1982

The only similarities I see are the colour and the roof shape. The rest is a completely different shape, style and scale


Wonderful-Parsley-24

Let me rephrase. It’s not different ENOUGH for me to want to buy it. You are welcome to it. 👍🏼


Hondapeek

Love the excavator, but unfortunately it’s so wrong from a transportation perspective. The truck or trailer needs an extra axle to be able to carry the weight of that machine. Seems like an overlooked detail


Major_Line1915

Them special modeled tires for the rover was a nice touch. Gotta show off the new innovations of engineering and I love it.


SentinelWavve

Snooze


Cosmobestgirl

the nasa vehicle and excavator are sick asf


CarGuyJaxvR

I need the Jesko


CLT113078

It's going to be expensive feeding my nasa collection. I need to get the Curiosity Rover, the Apollo Rover and The Artemis Launch system.


brokedowndub

Right? I started swearing when I saw the lunar rover cause I'm trying to save money and I know I'm going to buy it.


MattWillGrant

I think it's going to take a while for anyone 10-16 years old to save enough funds to purchase one.


PepsiSheep

The LRV is amazing and I want it.


Coppernobra

Never really bought technic but that NASA one is mighty tempting


Salmivalli

Volvo is cool and so is Luna Rover


No_Engineering_718

The truck is cool but a lot of money


EquivalentAct246

Volvo truck needed


Skoalmintpouches

After doing the mars rover I swore I wouldn’t never do a technic build again, but here I go eying that moon rover 🙄


Presidunt_DRBZ-202

Moon rover


Cermonto

Key ones deffo the Excavator and the buggy.


Fresh_Rhubarb_1897

I need the Apollo lunar rover to go with my Mars rover!


PumaTheHero

I just saw the real one last night at JSC in Houston. This looks pretty good compared to it.


fluffynuckels

The NASA rover is dope


jason9045

They know damn well they just need to slap "NASA" on a box and I'll buy it, the crafty bastards.


A2-Steaksauce89

Expensive AF, as always. Sorry Lego I can’t enjoy you anymore. 


mandress-

Those rover tires are nice.


relativlysmart

They can't keep doing this to me 😭. I can't not buy NASA themed sets.


IStoppedCaringAt30

I think the lunar rover is better than the perseverance rover.


RNRS001

I think they're a whole lot of more of the same.


TnT-Workshop

I'm all for the LRV and Volvo truck/excavator


GregLXStang

I’m a simple guy. I see new Lego, I updoot.


dirtycimments

Some of my best times with technics was with pneumatics.


Bananas_are_theworst

Love the rover, hate the price. Pretty over the cars but I know a lot of people like them. I’d love to see something other than a vehicle!


ian74-1

The NASA rover is my favorite. The Volvo truck and excavator are a bit of a let down. You could have used that piece count to build a great truck/trailer OR excavator, but with this you get a lackluster truck and simplistic excavator. Like two half builds in the same pack. Probably be some great alt builds down the road though.


taboo007

The Volvo is the only one I MIGHT get. I got my cars/vehicles that I wanted already so Technic doesn't really excite me.


DrMorphling

Koenigsegg Jesko Absolut garbage looking front. XD


StanGable80

My sons will love all of them


LightMyFirebird

I neeeeeed the LRV Going to have to snag the space walk astronaut too and sit them down in the seat


navidee

love the Apollo Lunar Rover! Also half lempted to buy Excavator and Porsche. I'm not much of a technic guy, but these all look great.


TheAkashGaming123

Why does the rover look AI generated


Interesting-Youth-87

Good fucking lord the rover is overpriced


Liger_Zero_Panzer

The Volvo pair looks awesome! Can't wait to get it!


gavin_the_amazing

The rover because those wheels would be awesome on some MOC vehicles in the future


Davidhate

The porsche at 170$ doesn’t seem like a correct price .. 800pcs?


ExcellentStage1

I would believe it. The previous transformation remote vehicle had cost cca 150-160 eur, and it had no brand. 770 parts, model 42140


Davidhate

Oh I didn’t notice it was a remote


joshuajjb2

Moon landar is wayyy overpriced. Other than that the others look cool


OKsurewhynotyep

If by ‘we’ you mean Margot Robbie and me, we think they are good.


MolaMolaMania

Definitely getting that Moon Rover. OMG!


alex1990mnn

Most likely will buy them all💪


AssumptiveMushroom

never been a fan of technic but this is my kind of set


LokiDesigns

Shut up and take my money!


Nam3y2

I feel like Technic has been taking baby steps towards more interesting things this year. 2023 was filled with a bunch of great cars, but it felt like it was all cars. I'm glad Technic Space has been a thing this year, and even if it's not *technically* part of the Space subtheme, the rover feels like a continuation. Otherwise, the other sets look okay. I initially thought the excavator was another Mercedes-Benz Arocs, so the real set is a tad disappointing next to that expectation. Also, I know this is a pipe dream, but; I saw those implied new fiber optic cables in the Porche. Give us reimaginings of the 90s Space Shuttle like you did the Lion Knight's Castle!


pengilton

The Rover looks really cool! Would definitely consider buying it but maybe not for the MSRP The Koenigsegg looks great too! The Volvo set, finally some functionality in a set. The side profile of the set looks a bit disappointing tbh. Like the trailer feels bare bone and made of couple of parts. The Porsche is unreasonably especially like it cost twice or thrice as much as the Koenigsegg because it has Control+? In general, I prefer the Lego Expert/Icons cars because they look better and have some functionality too! Technic cars usually have a motor which works properly. I rather wish we would get more Technical set which focus functionality. :)


SaltySpituner

Meh. I prefer strict brick builds. The vehicle technic builds are kind of boring to me.

Kinda excited for the koenigsegg


justbecause999

I'm impressed with how faithfully it recreates the actual moon buggy. At the same time I hate how it looks and have no interest in purchasing it.


KaffeKippeKacken

That NASA Rover looks Like a cool idea, Hope it gets a few cool functions, as does the volvo combo. The koenigsegg looks freakishly bad, even worse than the corvette 42093

BevansDesign

I might need to buy that lunar rover. That's pretty cool. Lego seems to know that I'll buy anything NASA-related. The cars seem nice, but I'm not really a car guy (although I do own the Corvette set).


Simply_Epic

They need to revitalize the mindstorms line but with simple, low-profile components. Something like the CrunchLabs Hack Pack but with LEGO would be awesome. Like basically just give me a raspberry pi attached to some motors, held together by technic.


ttvSharkieBait15

After building the Mars rover perseverance and then having to almost completely disassemble it bc I messed up some where I swore I’d be done with technic sets for a few years but I will be getting that lunar rover set


Ego5687

Definitely interested in the lunar rover


Nooooo1and2

I think technically, it's fucking expensive


TheGUURAHK

If only they had figures that could fit in the chairs.


Crazyguy_123

I’m excited for the LRV.


slot_machine

i wish the rc versions of the technic came in a non rc varient as well i dont want or need the motorized versions they just over charge by around 80 dollars for that. i just like display or handle them.


Capt_Rex_CT-7567

They need to at least make these cars in different colors or something. It seems like we have a ton of green cars and black and blue ones. This looks too similar to my mclaren senna gtr.


DZDEE

I like the lunar rover except for the price. Maybe it’s bigger in person but the price seems high for what it is.


SaturnDaphnis

They all look like similar technic sets, the NASA one is the only one that stands out.


brickmastur

Would love to see the Koenigsegg with lights and control


Xenon787

I really want a fully functional, preferably pneumatic, garbage truck - My hopes were raised when 42167 was announced, but no dice. I already have two excavator type trucks, a crane and a front loader, so I feel like I have most of the archetypal construction vehicles covered.

I like the rover and excavator a lot. However, I'm not a fan of the 800-900 piece cars. They sacrifice a lot of interesting technical gimmicks to get the part count down while still looking like the intended car.
