I always love it when the hamster gets involved.
For an autonomous vehicle its ironic it has no remote functions.....
Each time these videos come out I see people moaning about how Sariel supposedly gets them "for free". It takes 2-8+ hours to assemble a set depending on complexity. One can earn $50-$300+ in that time with a normal decent job. These setts pretty much cost that amount of money. It also takes time to process the video and upload them. So the 2-8 hours becomes 10+ very easily. Studio isn't free, lighting and cameras cost money... you all realise that right? Sure it's an advertisement for lego, but Lego is getting far far more than merely the set which he got for "free", free defined loosely as he didn't pay, but notice that he is obligated to create these videos, right? Let's not forget the time put into developing a channel, which comes with tons of "unpaid work". It's an investment in itself. So stop being so salty about how these sets are obtained. Why does it bother people?

Thanks, FYI the 42082 review has taken 4 days and 2 nights, because I had to render videos overnight (takes forever at 4K). Keep in mind that most people at YT are little kids and they don't care how much work I put into all this stuff, the have no concept of job, they only see that I got something without paying for it and get jealous.

I’m late by a year, but here is my 2 cents. Every time before I buy any technic set, I always come here to see what Sariel thinks about it. I’m pretty sure many people do the same. If I work at Lego’s marketing department, Sariel would be at the top of the list of youtubers I give free sets to. The quality and insights in his videos are second to none in my humble opinion. Anyone who doesn’t think Sariel deserves these free sets, should at least give an example of a more worthy channel, which I’m afraid does not exist.

These people either genuinely lack independent thought, or are just silly little kids that hopefully will learn when they grow up. When looking through the comments for something meaningful about the set such as criticisms or interesting points to justify a purchase (Lego sets aren't cheap for most people), it's so annoying to see some moronic diatribe about "wahhh u got it 4 free whyyy". I usually ignore them, but this time (last year) I got triggered... so yeah.

I can just imagine this working on the Moon or Mars.
Such coolness! I'd all but KILL for one of these awesome robots!
The stickers are very very well detailed the details: black box, black box with "volvo" on it, yellow/black lines
I'd love to see an rc conversion of this, if possible. It makes so much sense, even!
This set looks like it would work on Mars with all those things like drones, cameras and massive wheels! This set is quite appealing to the eye!
Thank you for wonderful review and speed build! I believe reviewer like you able to Lego not just survive, but growing and prosper both Lego fans and Lego! I"ll get this while it is available price!
Well, it looks damn good...
This set actually seems quite decent. Lots of room for modding. I can also see the possibility of buying those tiny toy drones, painting them, and landing onto the deck. Not bad, not bad.
That battery, the thingy that acts as a counter weight, almost looks like one of those Ryobi 40v batteries. Also, it probably has no drivetrain because there will be electric motors for each wheel/axel.
I love the drone. Reminds me of Blade Runner 2049.
great review, i enjoyed it!
I hope you convert this to work with power functions and show us how!
Other one question Sariel, do you think that the manually and slow operated functions is a problem for this set ? Because I do not understand how it is possible to make that, for me it is a non sense to have such slow functions non motorized. I would prefer in that case have a crank handle like the old set (do you have the 8848 or 850 or 8846 tow truck which is a beats in playability !?)

I think they could have used pushrods with some gearing instead of linear actuators. The actuators are really better suited for motors than for manual operation.

Cool video as always, keep up the excellent work!
I don't really like this set. The looks aren't terrible but they also don't strike me as pleasing. The functions, other than the bucket, seem like they will be neglected pretty quickly because they are uninteresting and really slow. And of course there are countless other loaders available that are more playable and interesting. Sure this one has a counterweight and a variable rear axle but again, they are sluggish and I'm sure will tire quickly. Thanks for the review Sariel, great as always.
I was going to say that it's nice they are offering a set with a full set of the tractor tires in a lower piece count set with no motor to keep the cost down, but then they jacked up the price - probably because of the bucket. You can get the tractor for only a small amount more at this point and it has almost double the part count. It is nice that they did a construction set but it's not the same old construction set.

This thing is a construction vehicle shouldn’t it be required to have a suspension system?
always love your review, and your cute hamster! XD
Im still waiting for instructions for the mark 5 tank :P
It looks great but the price tag is kinda hefty for a set with no power functions, do you think it's possible to remove the extending feature of the counterweight to fit a PF system inside it instead? I guess that'll just turn it into 42030 but with four wheel steering but it's still nice if doable.
Awesome build my friend 👍✌️
When the rear axel is raised it looks like the Volvo is doing the downward dog yoga pose.
This set would have been great even if was manually motorized at the very least.
come on, this one would be the perfect one for full motorized functions. why theres not even a separeted upgrade option?
Which one do you think I should buy: This or the 42082 crane?
looks more like B-model for 42030
I have this set and is soooooo big
This is what I would take into the apocalypse. Also it gives me stink bug vibes when the back is raised.

I agree that the lifting of the rear axle is a waste, I would prefer the linear actuator control the tipping of the bucket. Also the way you control the buckets lift and tilt is stupid!
It looks like something like a mars rover with that drone on top
I could actually see this being a real machine. Remote operated heavy machinery? That would solve some problems, like the commute between the job site and home. Imagine driving these vehicles from a centralized facility with possibly VR to make it easier to see your surroundings. I'm not kidding, think about it. You can see a live video feed from the machine fine on a flat screen, but try looking around and driving at the same time. You need to control the cameras and the machine with different controls, and that gets really confusing. With VR we can render the surroundings from the camera feeds and have head motion control the cameras. This way we can construct a live virtual environment. How cool is that? The point here is to operate a ROV like you were actually there. If something were to go wrong, no humans would get hurt.
I'm confused as to what that thing is supposed to be.....🤔

Cześć Sariel, jak zwykle kapitalna recenzja! Wydaje mi się że z tych wszystkich 4 modeli ten wygląda najciekawiej i miałbym do ciebie pytanie. Ten ZEUX widzę że świetnie komponowałby się na półce z moim 42053, a mimo praktycznie identycznej ilości elementów opony od Xeriona dodają mu masy. Jest widzę możliwość zamówienia go teraz za około 320zł do Polski. Myślisz że to dobra cena? O ile pamiętam podobną kwotę wydałem na 42053 więc wydaje mi się że w tej cenie to naprawdę opłacalny i dobrze wyglądający model:D Z góry dzięki za odpowiedź!

Mam to LEGO
The real trouble with Lego is it has been turned from a nice toy to a over priced toy for the many special Themed type of Lego! star wars & harry potter etc.. all super over priced sets selling for hundreds when the mostly contain special small custom Lego parts and few normal main ones.. even the small model sets are super pricey when there maybe only like 20 small Lego bricks in it? I used to buy Lego sets in the golden age of Lego in the 1970's to 1980's Before Lego got themed to death set wise! Even the lovely online Lego shop I used buy single bricks and parts in any amount for nice prices has been totally changed now? It now only sells over priced Special sets and if you wish to buy the normal bricks, you a limited to 3 choices of pre-boxed coloured random picked bricks! I used be able to order any of the bricks or parts, Now I can't. I am sure the worlds most popular toy ( Lego ) and the companies who have themed sets done for them are laughing big time at the huge amount of money they have thanks to ripping off the fans of the Lego and the themes it is made in?
Lego should have just made a Technic Mars Rover

When volvo created a bug
Definitely a disappointment in terms of functionality and complexity. I think the suggestion is that every wheel has its electric motor and the counter weight is a big battery pack, but this doesn't make it anymore exciting since it has no power functions to illustrate these components. What's puzzling to me is the number of unnecessary parts used in the counter weight section that serve no mechanical function, and are barely even visible to add anything to the visuals. This set could've probably cut 1/6 or 1/7 of it's parts and still look and function exactly the same...…….what a waste. And the sad part is...…...it looks awesome!!!!!
Very disappointing summer technic sets. I guess I have to save money for Bugatti.
I think they should start making one or two technic sets every year that are really futuristic, like this one.
I literally looks like something from Alien

I personally think this is the ugliest technic set in years. It looks like some weird insect to me.
Looks ugly imo :/
Cheesy design. Looks like it is based on a toy of a generic futuristic whatever instead of a (possibly) real vehicle. Worst of the batch imo. One of the worst 1000+ pcs Technic sets of all time, if not the worst.
meh... lately technic is kinda ... meh..
Instead of this garbage why cant lego get a scania licence.
