  1. Ha, I’m basing my opinion based on videos I’ve seen, not the word of “sponsored influencers” but ultimately I will come to my own conclusions once I build it. So we’ll see I think it’s fine to point out flaws, my point is that there seems to be a tendency to inflate how impactful those flaws are to the overall experience with TLG products. And the opposite is true for MOCs and alt brands. Fair enough though that they’re cheaper
  2. It’s interesting to see people complain about slack in ghost mode as a dealbreaker. All the videos I’ve watched so far seems to show it working pretty well, the doors not going up fully is just a reality of building mechanisms with soft plastic bricks… I feel like everyone is incredibly lenient of functions that flat out don’t work on MOCs and alternate brands, but LEGO is held to an unrealistic standard…
  3. Well, between the 9 speed gearbox and ghost mode, this is a seriously impressive flagship. I’m not in love with the front end and the printed lights, but I can easily overlook that for the mechanical complexity of the set. Excited for the reviews!
  4. I also find this kind of baffling. The front end looks way off because the designers wanted to use those 3*7 curved panels instead of angled connectors and soft axles. The result is headlights that are too far back from the leading edge of the car and a front end that’s too tall..
  5. The printed headlights are detracting so much from the overall look of the car, it’s such a shame. I find it hard to believe there was no viable brick-built solution. Almost shocking in a flagship Color scheme is pretty cool, though. It’ll be a great parts pack
  6. Speculation - is custom garage the modern equivalent to the racers nitro series? ie Legos lineup of modified cars, just licensed this time. Either way this looks horrible, but the theme could be interesting as a concept
  7. Trying this car again is a truly bizarre decision given the sheer number of movie cars that Lego could've picked from. Why again?! Some of the proportions are comically off (engine is enormous, headlights are oversized, roof is too low.. etc) and its such a boring set in terms of not only functions, but also novelty now. I truly hope no one buys this
  8. @R0Sch looking forward to thoughts after building the AMG GT3! I’m particularly interested to see how much liberty has been taken with illegal/sus building techniques to achieve the beautiful bodywork. It’s a make or break for me, personally
  9. Dang, this might be the year I finally buy a CADA set. So many enticing offerings, and the RS6 is a breath of fresh air after seeing so many supercars
  10. Best looking one yet of its class!
  11. Yeah 100% agree. Absolutely pales in comparison to the CADA F1 set imo
  12. I don’t know enough to say if this is truly NIB or not, but the bottom line is paying a premium for a 20+ year old set for sealed and new in box set doesn’t mean much given expected material degradation over time (especially since we don’t know how this was stored), and is probably not worth it.
  13. Looks amazing! Such a good looking MOC, probably my favorite 1:8 car of all time
  14. Imo the actual model looks quite a bit better than the leaks! It’s a brutally aggressive looking car, but I still think it’s not as pretty as the P1.. Also, it would be really cool to see the spoiler mechanism recreated in Lego! B-model perhaps?
  15. If the leaks are accurate then Lego made the right choice going with the P1. The leaked photos look like a mix between a Lykan and a BYD, very underwhelming compared to the beautiful P1…
