This makes me really wish they’d done a large scale System model of the Batmobile from The Batman with some Technic features like steering, rather than the fully Technic model they did do. It could have looked so good.

@clubpenguin4761 Жыл бұрын

I absolutely agree!! The large technic models, although I can appreciate them and understand why they do it as Technic, they just don’t do it for me. I much prefer the brick-dominant models like this one and the Mustang etc

@carbob9964 Жыл бұрын

Same, that and the BVS batmobile… I bet either will happen someday

@LukeSkywalker6 Жыл бұрын

I love that it is also the same size as the Mustang. Makes for a nice display. Now all we need is a Charger or Challenger!

I'd love to see a '66 Corvette, '68 Impala, '70 Challenger and a '70 Cuda in this series someday. In my opinion Lego would have no problem selling those classics. Great vid Jang! I'll have to pick this up some day.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not even into cars but I think the model is very, very nice. There is however no excuse for the blue tiles visible behind the wheels. Especially for a 170$ set. I’m not sure how much more difficult the build would be if they were gray or black, but isn’t a tiny bit of difficulty part of building with LEGO’s?

@shana10000 Жыл бұрын

I agree. The set itself is marked as 18+ there shouldn't be any need to try and make the build "easier"

@XanderS2X Жыл бұрын

I appreciate the aluminium silver for the rims ! It really gives a better global finition 🙂 But bumpers should have been in silver chrome instead of common light bluish grey 😔, especially for the Icons theme.

@DodgerFloof Жыл бұрын

The Mustang didn't have chrome bumpers, plus it probably would have increased the price by $10-$20

I loved this set so much when I bought it. I asked my friend to paint the dots on the dice it it made the set even better

@drawingguy2003 Жыл бұрын

I like this set, though I would like to add that they did a good job making it easy to swap between the hard top and convertible versions. All shared parts don’t even move, so you can just pull off one and plug in the other just needing a couple little pieces to fill in the gaps. Even easier than changing the stripe colors.

@nps1016 Жыл бұрын

It’s a nice set for $170, I like the options of switching out the stripes and making it a convertible. I don’t like the placing of the blue tiles either, I don’t think it would be that hard to find black or grey pieces to make it blend in more.

You give balanced, comprehensive, honest and complete reviews while still showing appreciation for the product. Thank you for you hard work and consistency. Please continue to produce these, you have a dedicated viewer here.

The front grille looks so good to me. Love the technic air splitter below. Would've been nice to have a bar to put under the hood as a support, even if it wasn't built into the car itself but as a side build. Really wish all the decals were prints and not stickers, but it's worth the extra detail.

This is a really done model. I don't like the crazy colors showing up behind the front wheels, but that's about my only issue. I love the door hinges and those thingies on the car body the doors slot into (not sure what they're called. Nice reference to Model Team. I guess cars like this are like the modern equivalent to Model Team. We don't see many of the semi trucks and vans, boats, helicopters etc anymore though. I'd love to see this side by side compared to the Mustang.

It's a Gorgeous set. I drive a 2015 Challenger and I love that classic 1970's look and this set nails that. If I get a lego car set its either this the Delorian or perhaps the James bond set.

@coffeeinhandproductions3238 Жыл бұрын

Excellent set though hugely expensive. Definitely agree about the straight forward build process which doesn't feel all that different from the Mustang, but a little less advanced than maybe the Porsche. Having just built the T2, and loving the unique build process throughout with so many complaints about it being too advanced/difficult I can see why Lego kept this one a lot more simplified in the construction. Still looks great, love the new fender panels, and the effortless swap between hardtop/convertible. Definitely on the list of sets to get for next year.

Nice review again. Nice model; finish/value is okay; no chrome (silver at least) bumper is lacking.

@WizardOfOss Жыл бұрын

Despite a few flaws (especially too many stickers and those weird colors), I do still very much like it. I do feel the price is too high too, and I will wait for a good discount. As for those extra pieces, on the one hand I do appreciate those options, but on the other, without those it could have easily been €20 cheaper. And one thing I have been wondering before with the Fender: why don't they just make a new version in another color (how about yellow and black) next year? I bet there would be lots of fans who would just buy every color Lego would come up with.

@andrewgwilliam4831 Жыл бұрын

I'm thinking the new wheel-arch pieces could be laid flat on the ground or on roofs for the top of shafts, ducts, etc?

So are the creator expert cars (hopefully will also be trucks as well) all scaled the same so they look well together?

@rarewhiteape Жыл бұрын

They are reasonably close. Nowadays they have the same wheels but certain body dimensions might be off from each other by a small degree. They’re not exactly the same scale but close enough to look good together.
