When will the new LEGO Speed Champions sets be released?
A Ferrari F40 and Camaro NASCAR car will soon join LEGO’s Speed Champions range. Here’s everything we know about the new kits, including their release date, prices, and more.
Considering their respective piece counts (318 for the Ferrari and 328 for the Camaro), the asking price is reasonable when compared to that of one-model Speed Champions replicas with fewer bricks.
For example, the Lamborghini Lambo V12 Vision GT Super Car kit costs the same as these upcoming sets but comprises 230 pieces.
LEGO is no stranger to producingFerrarireplicas. There have been myriad LEGO Ferrari models from several themes over the years. There are the spectacularTechnic Daytona SP3and retired Creator Expert F40 and a range of Speed Champions-reimagined models.
As such, and with its intricate detailing, this model represents the Italian marque’s iconic supercar much more accurately, albeit on a small scale. It looks brilliant. A single minifigure is included.
In addition, it looks much different than its Technic counterpart, with the most notable design change being the flame decals. However, a fair bet would be that these graphics are not printed on the bricks and are recreated with stickers. But no matter, the completed build looks great, especially considering the array of vibrant hues used for the livery.
This set ships with a minifigure of a NASCAR racing driver. A helmet accessory is also present.
