Review: 42168-1 – John Deere 9700 Forage Harvester

Farming equipment is not new to Technic. One of the very first Technic sets, even before the theme got its official name, is 851-1 Tractor. In the following year, some more tractors were released, and the 8862-1 Backhoe Grader from 1989 had a harvester for a b-model. It would take until 2006 for the next farm set: 8281-1 Mini Tractor, and more followed. In 2022, we got the first John Deere set, with 42136-1 John Deere 9620R 4WD Tractor, with 42157-1 John Deere 948L-II Skidder appearing the next year. And now we have the 3rd set in the series: 42168-1 John Deere 9700 Forage Harvester, a harvester in a similar scale to the 42136-1. Let’s start building.
