jonwil Posted June 1, 2023 This might be the first technic set I buy in a very long time. It's a pity they went with lime like the Sian, would have been better in, say, yellow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mpj Posted June 1, 2023 (edited) For the small size, the shape is ok. I don't like the repetitive color, and the black rims which are a constant of all small sized Technic cars. It should also have bigger rims/smaller tyre profiles, introducing a rim cover would not be so bad.

jonwil Posted June 1, 2023 Is this Ford GT sized? Shelby sized? Bigger than both? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jurss Posted June 1, 2023 Shelby, bolide, corvette, senna etc. sized. So technic "speed champion" series. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BrickMonkeyMOCs Posted June 1, 2023 Overall, I like the shaping and have no objection to the colour. I don't like the stickers though - especially that one at the front left (why not just use a green part?) - and the rear end looks a little high, i.e. the rear top panels don't seem to slope down far enough.

jonwil Posted June 1, 2023 If it's smaller than the Shelby that's good, means I might be able to afford this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Erik Leppen Posted June 1, 2023 (edited) As a car, I think it looks nice. I like how the doors are slightly slanted. Also, seems a good parts pack for new small panel stuff in lime. I might get it just for that. For the rest, these cars are all a bit "samey". Edited June 1, 2023 by Erik Leppen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jurss Posted June 1, 2023 Most probably will get this because of all panels. Otherway, design also is pretty good, if not the best from all in this scale. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pow Posted June 1, 2023 They did a relatively good job with the pins. nearly all pins connecting the (green) panels to the car are in black. But what would important to me is the amount of gears. And whats a shame: it has 100 parts less then the bugatti but costs 3 Money more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Bugatti sounds like good piece count for money on first look, but it just contains so many small parts. There are so many 1x2 half beams in this set... After building the Bugatti I felt that it was not more of a bargain than any other set. So I'm really not surprised that other sets from Technic don't have the same price per piece value.
