Lego Technic fan Barry Bosman has recreated the Lego Technic Container Truck (set 8052) from photos using currently available parts and colours.
This video explains how the one mechanism manages to both tip the body up, and to also offload the body. This is the main function of a Lift hook type vehicle. (see 1:33 > 2:00)
Many Lego fans have been trying to build simple Hook Lift lorry's for years without managing to recreate such a simple mechanism to both tip and offload.

Now that the Lego Technic Crane Truck (8258) has been out for 6 months I though I'd better buy the set before it sells out. On checking a few retailers I found a bargin price of £103.91 at Argos UK here.
The next cheapest is Amazon at £125 - a saving of at least £20.
Whilst it's not available for home delivery from Argos it does appear to be available at most shops. Normally when Argos discount Lego Technic it usually means they've run out of stock and it's shortly to be discontinued from the catalogue.
It's toy fair season at the moment where toy companies showcase their new and upcoming toys. These images were captured at the Toronto Toy fare in Canada.
From the box we can see it contains 1123 parts and is aimed at 11-16 year olds. The arm does have 3 degrees of articulation, the top half rotates, and the tracks are driven. This gives 6 motions with only 4 motors and 4 available controls from the remote control, so it looks like there'll be some form of switching mechanism between the 6 functions.

Again from the box the set contains 686 parts and is aimed at ages 10 - 16 years old. The truck is fitted with one Power Functions motor that looks like a medium sized one. Presumably to load and offload the container. The container can either be tipped as in a tipper truck, or offloaded to the back. This looks like it's selected by a small gearbox on the side of the truck.

The set contains 1289 parts and is aimed at 11-16 years. The model doesn't appear to contain any Power Functions motors so presumably everything is manually driven. The crane has unusual outriggers to stabilise the it. They appear to form a large x, each swinging out from the side. Looks like thumb type screws on each stabiliser leg. The cranes hook is rather odd considering they didn't use the existing hook and pulley parts. It'll be interesting how heavy a weight this crane will be able to lift with only one Linear Actuator.

487 Lego parts aimed at 9 to 16 year olds. The wheels on the bike look like new parts - wider than any other motor bike produced in the past. This looks like a very detailed build using lots of small parts.
