LEGO Technic Summer 2022 sets revealed in 2HY LEGO Catalogue!

The Taiwanese 2HY LEGO Catalogue has given us a sneak peek at two new LEGO Technic sets that are due to arrive in August 2022 – 42144 Material Handler and 42145 Airbus H175 Rescue Helicopter.

42145 Airbus H175 Rescue Helicopter should appeal to helicopter enthusiasts, and it’s also quite sizable at 72cm across, and is officially Airbus licensed.

Update: we now have more official set images of the 42144 Material Handler and 42145 Airbus H175 Rescue Helicopter, which you can find below!

I’m not too familiar with helicopters, but the H175 is apparently a world record holder, with a time-to-climb record of 6,000 metres in 6 min., 54 sec., and a time-to-climb record of 3,000 metres in 3 min., 10 sec according to Airbus.

Want to discover how a helicopter works? Here’s your chance!

With this LEGO® Technic™ Airbus H175 Rescue Helicopter set, you’ll build your own search and rescue helicopter. See how the different parts work together – just like they do in a real helicopter.

Features and functions include a spin rotor, tail rotor, retractable landing gear, cowling, winch and spinning engine.

Like all helicopters, there is a variant used for military – the H175M…. so let’s hope it doesn’t get Osprey’d.

For fans of cranes and builds with pneumatic cylinders, the 42144 Material Handler is also a great addition, and I do like the red colour scheme, which is a fresh change from the usual yellow models.

Do you love mechanics and engineering? Then you’ll enjoy this action-packed build!

The LEGO® Technic™ Material Handler set gives you a fascinating look at how a material handler vehicle really works.

It has lots of manual and pneumatic functions so you can explore how this mighty vehicle sorts, piles and loads scrap materials ready for processing.

Both these new Technic sets should go on sale in August 2022. No pricing details at this stage, but they should pop up on LEGO.com soon enough!

  1. I’m so excited for the LEGO Technic sets that are coming out this summer!

    Hi

    I am looking for bucket wheel excavator Lego Technic no: 42055,can you guide on how i can get this.

    • Jay says:

      Unfortunately it’s retired so you’ll have to look on secondary marketplaces like eBay, Bricklink or Amazon to get one.

    • PATRICK says:

      Bonjour, je suis en possession du set 42055 dans sa boîte et non monte . Si cela vous intéresse encore dites-moi comment pourrait-on rentrer en contact. Bien à vous

    Osprey’s only operators were militaries, I think had there been a single civilian operator it would have flown as a Lego set.

    H175 has a lot of civilian operators.

  4. Andrew says:

    The helicopter doesn’t really look like it offers much over the last couple of (officially released) like sets. The Osprey was a very cool design, i’d have loved to have gotten something like that if there was a civilian example anywhere.

    I love the pneumatic models, very pleased to see another. For me, last year’s Heavy Duty Tow Truck was the best Technic set in a while, and available quite early at a reasonable discount.

    • Team CLR says:

      Yeah, but there are those who believe the osprey story was a copout to cover up the design flaws in the model

      • Hobbes says:

        Either way, it was a bad idea to remove the Osprey. Let’s assume the real reason is a bad design: this happened before (Wall-E, I even received new parts(actuators) from Lego for 8043). Fixing an error is certainly less expensive than scrapping a whole batch of sets that were ready to go in the stores. Let’s assume that there are only military Osprey in the real world, Lego decided to convert it to a civilian search and rescue(SAR) vehicle – basically a vehicle that do not exist in real life – as such, this vehicle is now part of a “fantasy” realm and does not violate the Lego rule.
