  • We're getting some Lego Love: New Mustang, Raptor, Model A, Camaros

    The Speed Champions line came out this year. I got the Porsche 918 and LaFerrari, and they're pretty fun. They just released the lineup for 2016 and the domestics are represented.



    Since I'm a giant 9 year old, I'll be getting some of these too.

    I wish they'd make a classic Mustang like they did the Camaro, but I like my version better anyway:

        Yeah, that thing is bad ass, as is the Mini. These are on a small minifig scale, so they're not as detailed.

        I actually modded the LaFerrari and 918 to be two studs wider. I didn't like that the driver sat centered in the car.

        My mods:

          Guess it is just part of us to mod everything lol. It trips me out all you can do with leggos. I want the death star but it is damned pricey.

            Yeah it is. Really cool though. It's a fun hobby, and even though it's pricey as toys go, it's relatively affordable compared to guns and cars, lol.

            My daughter and I have had a ton of fun playing with Lego. Making some great memories there. Hopefully she'll keep playing with her old man even when she's older and too cool for school. I won't hold my breath though.

              Yea way cheaper that other hobbies and like you said great for making memories with the kiddos. Most people boys and girls alike that I know never lose the leggo bug so hopefully she keeps hanging with her old man.

                  I have this one and my boy loves to drive it around and make the body spin. Hasn't quite gotten the controls for the boom arm down yet.

                      Display it man. It's fun to look at and people really respond to it. I have the Ghostbusters and Ecto 1 on my desk at work and people love to look at it and mess with it.

                        I have that set and my little green lego army men on the shelf under my TV, along with Marty, Doc Brown and the DeLorean.

                          Ah, I want the time machine pretty bad. They've been doing great the last few years with hitting some big licenses like that. Both Ecto1 and the time machine came out of Lego Ideas. It's a system where fans build something and submit it for votes. If it get's over 10,000, Lego reviews it and considers it for production.

                          For example, check this one out. It's under review, so there's a possibility it could get made:
