LEGO Technic is gearing up for another exciting 12 months with a total of six sets rumoured for a 1st of January 2026 launch. From farming machinery and pull-back monster trucks to space exploration and high-performance supercars, the Winter 2026 wave covers a broad spectrum of real-world engineering and imaginative play. The most expensive and exciting of which is 42224 Porsche 911 GT3 R AO Rexy Racing Car, which will likely be the first of many LEGO Technic sets in 2026 to have over 1,000 pieces...
42218 John Deere 170H Wheeled Harvester
The most affordable set of the wave is 42218 John Deere 170H Wheeled Harvester, which retails for just $9.99 / €9.99 / £8.99 with 117 pieces included. The 7+ model recreates the John Deere 170H Harvester in the company's trademark green and yellow colour scheme. We can expect, even for this small $10 model, some articulation, such as a moving arm or adjustable cutting head, alongside simple steering and movement.
