It is the US Walmart brand that puts an end to the suspense: the official visuals of the LEGO Technic set 42126 Ford F-150 Raptor are now online.

This box of 1379 pieces, which will be available on October 1, will allow a reproduction of the emblematic vehicle of the Ford brand to be assembled in its most recent version. Public price possible with us: 139.99 €.

As for the features integrated into this model with respectable measurements with 42 cm long and 17 cm high, we can count on a V6 engine with movable pistons, on four suspensions, on a steering that can be manipulated via a remote wheel on the roof, on doors that open and a hood that lifts.

We will talk about this box soon on the occasion of a "Review ".

Penultimate step of the Post 2020 calendar in Hoth Bricks version with two very beautiful boxes from the LEGO Technic range put into play: The sets 42115 Lamborghini Sián FKP 37 (379.99 €) and 42107 Ducati Panigale V4 R (59.99 €): the common point between these two sets, they both have color difference problems on some parts that annoyed many fans and the winner will probably have to call customer service to obtain elements of replacement. But since he saved the modest sum of 439.98 €, he will certainly do so with a smile.

Today we quickly go around the other small box under 10 € in the LEGO Technic range of the first half of 2021: the reference 42117 Race Plane. Like the set 42116 Skid Steer Loader, this small unpretentious box of 154 pieces is aimed at young fans who would like to gradually enter the LEGO Technic universe by discovering the potential of more or less complex elements and mechanisms that can be assembled.

This aircraft does a little worse than the skid steer loader on the side of the integrated functions, but it still allows you to learn some basic principles that will allow budding designers to move on to more sophisticated products.

It is therefore a question here of discovering how the wheels of the aircraft can cause the movement of the propeller, and the designer even thought of authorizing the observation of part of the mechanism via the two mobile elements of the cabin.

Some will immediately associate the machine with those who are competing in the very spectacular Red Bull Air Race and we could have imagined that LEGO would add two studs in the set to offer some fun aerobatic possibilities. A second box on the same subject with an airplane in different colors would also have added the possibility of having fun together and going beyond the construction of the airplane.

In short, even if adults accustomed to the LEGO Technic range are clearly not the target of this product with limited functionality, do not neglect this type of set when it comes to initiating a young fan more used to stacking bricks. than to associate gears with each other.

These small boxes are quickly assembled and a newcomer to the Technic universe will not have time to get bored or to feel overwhelmed by the complexity of the thing. The result obtained is visually very successful and it offers rewarding play possibilities for those who have just spent a few minutes trying to understand how the propeller sets in motion.

The contents of the set allow to assemble an alternative model, which I find visually a little less successful. This is always taken for the life of the product, we will not complain.

Note: The set presented here, provided by LEGO, is as usual involved. Deadline fixed at 4th January 2021 next at 23pm. "The" I try, I participate "are automatically deleted, make an effort.

Update : The winner was drawn and was notified by email, his nickname is indicated below. Without a response from him to my request for contact details within 5 days, a new winner will be drawn.
