I’ve just built the McLaren Senna. It’s a chunky thing with a lot of parts, but really disappointed in the lack mechanisms, which is the bit about Technic I like. The drive train is a real cop out with no diff and 1-wheel drive from the engine.
Yes that one is a bit disappointing. And ugly. The other weird bit is where the chassis is kind of bent in the middle.On the other hand, the hovercraft and the digger kits are really nice

Are licensing costs really that high?

The motors/controllers for the Merc will bump it up somewhat.LEGO Technic 42129 4x4 Mercedes-Benz Zetros Trial Truck 2110pcs Age 12+ £269.95

That said, the Cat D11T I am going to be all over…
That's what technic should be, it should have that many functions (plus pneumatics, I know they're crap for realistic movement but come on, they're amazing) that you wonder how on earth they came up with fitting them in such a tight space.
The tow truck appeals to me a lot more than the Merc truck, not just on price
