The new LEGO Technic Liebherr R 9800 (42100) was revealed at the 2019 Nuremberg Toy Fair but there were no images of the set until the Bauma 2019 convention last week. At that event, LEGO showed off their new flagship Technic set that will be available on August 1. The 4,108 piece Liebherr R 9800 will be utilizing a new CONTROL+ system that allows multiple functions to work simultaneously using seven motors. There’s no word on the price in US dollars but it was reported that it costs 449.99€ in Germany.

LEGO Technic introduces CONTROL+ as a new smart device connected way of controlling the LEGO Technic products. CONTROL+ uses new electronic components and a free, linked app to give children and adults an even more authentic play experience.

The app also displays data feedback from the model. LEGO Technic CONTROL+ can be experienced for the first time from 1 August 2019 with the replica of the Liebherr R 9800, one of the largest excavators in the world.

New LEGO Star Wars Video Game Coming in 2019 and Rumored Details

April 15, 2019 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

At Star Wars Celebration 2019, Supervising Sound Editor and Sound Designer Matt Wood has revealed that there will be a new LEGO Star Wars Video Game coming this year. There was no details given as it was just a project that he was listing off that they are working on.

I’ve actually known about this game since early last year. It was said that “the new LEGO Star Wars is the most important game TT has released, ever.” The game is rumored to be completely remastered and will feature all 9 films from the Skywalker saga as well as part of the Extended Universe. It was also said that it would use procedurally generated worlds, similar to what LEGO Worlds uses, to explore in space while using hundreds of characters to play as.

We’ll probably hear more about the game during San Diego Comic Con but in the meantime, check out the clip where Matt Wood just skims by the announcement.
