Thank you Draggy for this detailed review. It was an enjoyable read and I am looking forward to receive mine too. It's a certainly worthy winter addition. On some instances, I felt this look like the Toy Story train for the locomotive front.

The most impressive beautiful modular combination ever. Fitting for the tenth anniversary modular celebration.

It's entirely different building platform. You can't just use LEGO and mix it altogether and claim as it is. You can perceive as 'same same' but in actual reality, it's very different. It's not a very fair comparison.

You are right. I also went ahead and read a detailed review on New Elementary as their reviews are subject matter expert on LEGO parts identification. It's a pretty enriching read. A disappointing detail to add, which make the score drop further, is the Singapore SRP, is $149.90. A very upsetting price tag.

Excellent piece of musical art. This looks better than I anticipated, without it being too cartoonish and staying close to the actual reference.

Thank you for your comments and replies. There is quite a huge fan base who are interested in LEGO models of that sort, who just like the aesthetic built of it. If you are aim to complete this LEGO IDEAS theme, then set must pick up as well. I only choose a few worthy ones to be in my collection, including Ecto 1, BTTF, BBT, Wall-E, Doctor Who and Birds. Yes, it's certainly will appeal to those fans who are into this type of sports car. Agreed with your identified points. I think the content are all existing parts and I don't recall there are any new parts. I could be wrong as I generally not good with new parts identification in a set as I don't build many new sets lately to strike such a comparison. It was unfortunate and disappointing. Sigh.

Hello everyone, I am very pleased to share this latest LEGO IDEAS 2016 set. This brand new 21307 Caterham Seven 620R is the 14th LEGO IDEAS set since this unique theme started back in 2012. It has been a long while since I ever done a LEGO IDEAS review and the last one was the enjoyable 21108 Ghostbusters in 2014. Special thanks to Eurobricks LUG Ambassador, CopMike and LEGO CEE for giving me this reviewing opportunity. Without further ado, let me show you this exciting sports car model. Name: 21307 Caterham Seven 620R Theme: LEGO IDEAS / Licensed / Sports Car Year: 2016 Pieces: 771 Minifigs: Nil Price: USD $79.99, GBP 69.99, EURO 79.99, SGD $149.90 Resources: Brickset, BrickLink An original box image of the 21307 Caterham Seven 620R Back view of the original box image of the 21307 Caterham Seven 620R Side view of the original box Side view of the original box Bottom view of the original box The latest LEGO IDEAS feature This set could only made possible, if is not for Carl Greatrix (bricktrix_Carl) whom have gathered 10,000 supporters on the LEGO IDEAS platform. It was approved by the LEGO Panel and the final product was recently launched on 1 October 2016 worldwide. Through his love and strong interest on Caterham Cars, he designed different variants and models with outstanding fine details. Caterham Cars is a British manufacturer of specialist lightweight sports cars established in Caterham, Surrey, with their headquarters in Crawley, Sussex, Great Britain. Their current model, the Caterham Seven, originally launched in 1973, is a direct evolution of the Series 3 Lotus Seven designed by Colin Chapman. The new Caterham Seven 620R features a wide range of performance enhancements. By harnessing the technical prowess, sheer desire, experience and professional team of engineers, this very special and awe-inspiring car was created. The content of the sealed box By slicing the adhesive sealed labels from the box, you are greeting by this sweet welcome. The sealed box come with six mint numbered packs from one to three and an instruction manual. After building the set, these are the remaining spare parts. The pristine instruction manual contains summarised information on the Caterham Seven 620R which include the vehicular design breakdown. The entire building content for Packet 1 The completed built for Packet 1 The completed bricks formed the rear base and overall frame of the Caterham Seven 620R. The built is sturdy at this point and the entire length of the car is laid nicely for the remaining two stages to build over it. You can take a few moments to examine the side view and rear view. In this packet, it also start to build the pedals and gears at the driver's seat and the axle holders. The entire building content for Packet 2 The completed built for Packet 2 By opening the next packet, the overall completed built for packet 2 had successfully formed the engine bay, chassis and mudguards for the wheels placement. You can see a closer look at the front view, back view and side view to see the detailed current building process and we are very near to the end of the building stage. I would also like to mention that this set contain zero stickers and there are quite an extensive of printed parts found in packet 1 and 2 so far. Not exactly sure if there are other fellow builders have encountered this poor quality printed bricks for one 1x2 brick. I am disappointed that the scratches are quite visible upon opening this mint packet. The entire building content for Packet 3 The completed built of the Caterham Seven 620R We have finally finished building the Caterham Seven 620R. It took me about less than three hours to finish the entire built. I am quite a slow builder, compared to others. It was an enjoyable building process where I am able to see the shape of the car forming bit by bit in stages. I also managed to identify more unique printed parts which excites me greatly. The finished built also appeared to be very sleek and sporty donned in its fashionable iconic yellow paint with black spray which emphasis the contrast. A closer look at the vehicular side that display Caterham, the contour line is slanting towards the front, while the fitting mudguards for the rear and the front are placed nicely. The original design by Carl Greatrix does not contain any form of actual steering. The actual LEGO model is streamlined for moving the sports car in a straight line, typical of most LEGO mainstream vehicles. I have also noticed a design flaw of this model, residing the front of the nose cone where it's rather brittle and fall off easily. By removing the front away, you will be able to see the weak connecting link relying on the 2x2 base to hold the relatively heavy nose cone. I wish it can hold tighter with its sparky headlights. A little slight movement and it will just come off and this is considered the weakest link in the finished built. The boot cover can also be removed from the rear to hold the axle holders. By emptying the boot content, you can see the full depth of the boot space. Going near to the dashboard of the car, you can see the layout of the controls and instruments and the driver seating comfortably in the carbon-fibre seats which is also able to recline front and back. You can see the dashboard closely from the side view and you may noticed that the dashboard can be adjusted slightly higher and lower, depending on your preference. I got to admit that the closeup of the driver's controls and steering wheel are very nicely laid out. Front view of the Caterham Seven 620R Side view of the Caterham Seven 620R with the side exit exhaust system Back view of the Caterham Seven 620R Side view of the Caterham Seven 620R Revealing the engine hull cover The Caterham Seven 620R is powered by an Supercharged 2.0 litre engine with 310 BHP. The built of the engine is very accurate and I like the small surprise of how it can incorporate pistols at the engine wiring and connectors. The smoke can be discharged by the unconventional side exit exhaust system. Without the engine attached, you are able to view the engine holding bay clearing with the sophisticated wiring. The ventilated engine hull cover can be removed and placed conveniently. without dropping off. The Caterham Seven 620R is ready for inspection You can see the printed ventilated brake discs upon removal of the wheel A scale comparison between Volkswagen T1 Camper Van and Caterham Seven 620R Side by side with the Volkswagen T1 Camper Van WhiteFang and Belun's new ride To conclude, this set is an above average LEGO IDEAS set. It has a striking and contrasting sporty colour scheme for this fast Caterham Seven 620R. It is based on a real life vehicle model and it does make a fine display piece. Although the overall official design differ quite a fair bit of the original design submission especially on the lack of the steering mechanism, but it does incorporate the iconic details which could allow sports enthusiasts car fans to spot from afar. I love the fact that this entire set contain nil stickers and the unique details are all printed. The engine details is equally outstanding. I do wish the front nose cone could be improved further, but I probably have to fix this on my own. All in all, I am quite pleased with this overall built, amidst of some disappointments. I wonder what do you guys think? Please note that all opinions and content shown in this Eurobricks pictorial review is from 'WhiteFang' and is not meant to represent LEGO official views. It is purely stated to share as a vantage point of a reviewer. Summary review Playability: 7/10 (It can't play with the rest of the other sets but it will complement very well with other similar LEGO Car Models of that scale.) Design: 8/10 (Good design, other than front nose cone flaw which I am not too pleased about.) Price: 6/10 (Price seems quite reasonable and is priced at somewhere mid-tier, but now I know Singapore SRP is on the high side which is very disappointing.) Overall: 7/10 (Do get this set especially if you are a huge fan of iconic sports cars.) I gave it a "4" based on my Review Score Card. What about you? I hope every one of you enjoyed reading this simple review of mine. Comments and Criticisms are welcomed. Pictures can be found in My Flickr.

That's rather nice.

Thank you guys for your comments and thoughts. I will certainly do my best to keep this up. Yellow with four wheels. Hopefully I can finish it soon.

Did you see "cover photo" or some sort?

It's from the Zombie Businessman in Series 14.

And, there is a notification to it as well, while I am working on my work as I leave my EB browser on. You can look under top right-hand tab for your profile. After clicking, look around for 'cover photo' and from there you can do magic.

I have refreshed this review. Images are now back, but I missed BB code. Sigh. Sure! Glad you find it useful.

Interesting inference. I vaguely recall but I am not exactly sure if this is one of Tara's favourite minifigure design for the Roller Derby Girl. If so, we may find a probable possible link for it.

Thank you guys for your thoughtful comments. It isn't hard to assume the baby is a boy. I didn't notice on this reference for the Cyborg. I am assuming is something related to the designer's preference. Sure, I can do that in my next review. It's really nicely put up for visual comparison. Thank you. You should not stop collecting. Yes, it's getting bigger but you are way ahead of the race since you got all of the earlier series. It's actually much harder for those new collectors. They will have a hard time collecting them all. That was a great idea, by my wife.

Thank you so much everyone for your nice and encouraging comments. I am really glad to know that you enjoyed it and it does mean lots to me. Noted, I tend to give my acknowledgments first as part of my formality which serve as a prelude to my review. I will trim the introduction in the future. Updated, thanks. Oh, hmm.. Well, that is an unique way of identifying that accessory as directional microphone for eavesdropping. I could really think that was sort of a weapon instead. That's an incredible piece of interesting information which I could not have noticed. It certainly take a Danish geographic student to point this out.

Thanks guys for your comments. Nope it doesn't. It's too small for the regular neck torso. Thanks alex54. Always glad to see you hanging around and pleased to note that you enjoyed this review very much. I am sure it will appear in regular stores in France, especially when many other parts of Europe are seeing their availability. Thanks for pointing it out. I was thinking to use scimitar but I tend to think scimitar is meant for the castle orcs in the fantasy era to wield it. It look more like a sabre to me than a scimitar, but I noted the official naming for this particular weapon accessory. I am sure we will see more colour variants for this particular hairpiece in the future. It's indeed a good idea. I will certainly take note of it. The new baby design has just created absolute new ways to integrate with existing minifigures' parts. It's not as boring as those minifigure statue which can be found in the LEGO Boardgames.

Thanks guys! I am not exactly sure how much true is there, with regards to the US mint box distribution. Is there a lot of different claims? Otherwise, I am strictly basing on this distribution configuration because I know absolute sure that it was opened from a mint sealed box. How stupid I am... Yes, you are right and I have incorporate inside the review. Certainly worth the mention. I have also placed and incorporate the useful information and Shop@Home Description inside my review. Thank you CopMike, especially for your ongoing support too. The LEGO CMFs are indeed wonderful and combing them and reusing them altogether in different scenarios, simply put the entire LEGO CMFs theme away from other regular themes in a positive limelight.

Dear Eurobricks Community, I am very pleased to present to share with all of you on my latest completed reviewing project of the 71013 LEGO Collectable Minifigures Series 16. I know many of you have enjoyed their Series 16 and the review was compromised due to technical delay. However, I am still glad that the Eurobricks tradition of CMFs remain and continue! It has been a very long time since I start doing this project and I hope is worthwhile for all to enjoy and appreciate. Meanwhile, please feel free to leave your thoughts in this review! Thank you.

I apologies for my error for screwing up my earlier poll results. All is rectified. I am sure there are other characters which others could like, apart from the Rogue. Rogue is meant for castle fans like us.

Stupid me. I erase the poll results by mistake. Apologies, please re-submit your poll preferences again. Sigh. Thanks.

For my choice, it's definitely the Rogue as it remind me of the medieval castle, wolfpack as well. It was an instant love at first sight for me.
