LEGO Announces Fast & Furious Partnership

January 28, 2020 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Today at the 2020 Nuremberg Toy Fair, LEGO has officially announced a new partnership with the Fast & Furious franchise to produce a LEGO Technic set featuring an Iconic car from the franchise. The details are still a mystery but it will be revealed at a later date and will be in stores on April 27.

Rumor has it that the car could be Brian’s 1995 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS from the First movie. Which car do you want to see from movie in LEGO form?

LEGO Fast & Furious Set Rumored for 2020

December 29, 2019 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

There’s a new LEGO 2020 set rumor that has stirred the pot again that could feature The Fast and the Furious franchise. Brick Fanatics is reporting that we could see a set based on something from the popular franchise. The rumor is that the set will be a larger style vehicle and not minifigure based. There were also rumors a few months ago that it could be a LEGO Technic Ultimate set based on Brian’s 1995 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS from the first movie, similar to the Bugatti Chiron (42083).

It’ll be interesting to see how the Eclipse or any other Fast & Furious vehicle is translated into LEGO whether it be Technic style or maybe something for the Creator line. It’s worth noting that Fast & Furious 9 will be hitting theaters in May so there could be a cross-promotion for the movie and the set around that time. As always, these are strictly rumors until LEGO announces it.

LEGO Technic Bugatti Chiron (42083) Woot Sale – December 2019

December 17, 2019 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

I don’t usually promote Woot.com but they do have a great sale on the LEGO Technic Bugatti Chiron (42083). Over there, it is currently priced at $244.99 which is 30% off the retail price of $349.99. For those who are skeptical of the site, they are a legitimate retailer. As for shipping methods, I don’t know how they ship. The deal has 12 days left on it or until it is sold out.

LEGO Technic Volvo Concept Wheel Loader ZEUX (42081) Walmart Sale – December 2019

December 10, 2019 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

It seems like good deals can still be found this late into the holiday shopping season as Walmart has one for the LEGO Technic Volvo Concept Wheel Loader ZEUX (42081). It is currently on sale for $89.99 which is almost 36% off the normal retail price. I’m not into too much Technic sets but the main model looks really good and it can also convert to the Volvo Concept Hauler PEGAX.

Life-Sized LEGO Technic Bugatti Chiron Now at LEGOLAND California

December 6, 2019 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

The life-sized LEGO Technic Bugatti Chiron has landed at LEGOLAND California and park attendees will be able to see for a limited time. It is displayed at one of the entrances of The Big Shop and you’ll be able to see the car in every angle. It consists of over 1 million Technic elements and took designers and builders over 13,000 hours to create. There’s no word on when the Chiron will be displayed until but now is a great once in a lifetime opportunity to see it.

It may not be Santa’s sleigh, but it’s built with more than one million LEGO® Technic elements, features more than 2,000 LEGO electric motors and more than 4,000 LEGO Technic gears, and is a one-of-a-kind replica of the world’s fastest production car…the first- ever life-size and drivable LEGO® Bugatti Chiron is on display at LEGOLAND® California Resort for the holidays for a limited time starting December 5.

The LEGO Bugatti Chiron took a team of designers and builders more than 13,000 hours to create the ultimate super sports car. Similar to the actual Chiron, the first fully-functional self-propelled Technic car is equipped with a rear spoiler, speedometer, front and back lights and detachable steering wheel that are all fully functional for this movable masterpiece. While the actual Chiron has been designed to reach record breaking speeds of 300 mph, the LEGO version is equally impressive as it has been engineered without the use of glue to keep the model together and allow it to be driven. The resemblance

LEGO Technic 2020 Official Set Images

November 18, 2019 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

After the announcement of the LEGO Technic App-Controled Top Gear Rally Car (42109) earlier today, there are now official images of the 2020 LEGO Technic sets that have shown up on online retailers. Some of the sets look neat but nothing really jumps out at me. I do like the Mini CLASS Xerion in case you don’t have the larger version from a few years ago.
