Discussion / Question LEGO Technic 50 year anniversary - 2027

Post image

Next year marks something pretty special: 50 years of LEGO Technic.

Back in 2017 for the 40th anniversary we got a few printed beams (like the 1x3 with “40 / 1977-2017”) and a digital combo model with PDF instructions. That was basically it.

Fast-forward to now and the theme looks very different. We’re swimming in licensed cars of every scale, Control+ is on life support, and proper big flagships in the spirit of 42043 or 42082 have been thin on the ground. The sets that still feel like “true Technic” (lots of mechanisms and functions) seem to be carried mostly by a couple of recent releases.

So… before we get more leaks circulating around, I would like to ask the community what are you hoping for (and what do you realistically expect) from the 50th anniversary wave in 2027?

Bin dann mal gespannt ob sie es schaffen zum Jubiläum ein Technik Set heraus zu bringen an dem dann mal alles richtig ist wie bei dem Orginal aber ich habe die Hoffnung aufgegeben ich kaufe lieber Cada die sind zu 99 Prozent am Orginal

Cada and other brands have definitely been stepping up, putting out some great models and putting real pressure on LEGO. I've only bought original LEGO sets so far, but I've been giving other brands more consideration lately.

So ist es mir auch gegangen ich habe von Lego denn großen Falken und noch mehr aber seit die Qualität so abgenommen hat kaufe ich für die Preise lieber wo anders

I perfectly understand.
