The Reader Posted January 30, 2024 Posted January 30, 2024 (edited) The play-size LEGO-City-style Land Rover Classic Defender (set 40650) is an awesome set and its colour "bright light orange" fits perfectly to the 2017 City jungle subtheme. So I did some modifications: new mudguards and tires, new hood, doors, windows in trans-light-blue and some equipment on the roof. Its appearance is now almost identical to the trucks from sets 60160 or 60161. What do you think? Critics and comments are very welcome. Edited January 30, 2024 by The Reader Quote
icm Posted January 30, 2024 Posted January 30, 2024 I like it. A nice, simple, effective mod to a nice, simple, effective set. I wish the retail set had the doors. Quote
The Reader Posted January 30, 2024 Author Posted January 30, 2024 (edited) @icmThank you very much! Yes, doors are a must. And these 2017 doors in "bright light orange" are just perfect. I'm a big fan of the 2017 jungle theme and have almost all sets. Edited January 30, 2024 by The Reader Quote
Feuer Zug Posted January 31, 2024 Posted January 31, 2024 This clicks on a number of levels. First, it matches the boxy look of the Defender. Second, the colors fit the theme. Well done. Quote
