The LEGO Technic 42113 Bell Boeing V-22 Osprey was withdrawn from sale two years ago because it was a military helicopter. LEGO initially tried to get away with this by promoting it as a rescue helicopter, but shortly before release decided to scrap the set entirely. Fortunately, Technic fans can soon look forward to a real rescue helicopter from Airbus. The LEGO Technic 42145 Airbus H175 Rescue Helicopter will be launched on August 1.
