Dom's Dodge Charger provides no opportunity for minifigures, belonging to the Technic theme, hence this exclusive LEGO portrayal of Dominic Toretto is appealing. The minifigure makes impressive use of the warm tan skin tone introduced earlier this year, although Dom's expression looks odd and I think something surlier would have been more appropriate for the character.
This buildable LEGO Speed Champions Nissan Skyline GT-R (R34) model car kit (76917) set is inspired by the iconic car featured in the explosive 2 Fast 2 Furious movie. Children aged 9 and up, car enthusiasts and fans of the popular film series can experience exciting builds before proudly displaying this collectible or recreating fast-paced street racing scenes. This awesome LEGO Speed Champions replica of the legendary muscle car is now theirs to collect, construct and explore. Your kids will love recreating the vehicle’s iconic lines piece by piece.However, the sleeveless shirt looks perfect, recreating Dom's most common attire throughout the Fast & Furious franchise. Whereas the wrench accompanying James Bond seemed out of place in 76911 Aston Martin DB5, this accessory suits Dominic Toretto nicely, for either working on his car or taking revenge on his enemies! The enduring Fast & Furious franchise includes countless extraordinary cars, many of which would suit Speed Champions. However, the most prevalent such vehicle is definitely Dominic Toretto's Dodge Charger and 76912 Fast & Furious 1970 Dodge Charger R/T has proven very impressive, particularly for its incredible detail, inside and out! The interior of the vehicle only has room for one minifigure, though that’s to make space for additional details such as a roll cage. This car has been depicted before in 75893 2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon and 1970 Dodge Charger R/T and 42111 Dom’s Dodge Charger, the latter of which was also a Fast & Furious set. With the LEGO Builder app to zoom, rotate and visualise the model, builders big and small can bring their race car toy to life on a tablet or smartphone for a sense of accomplishment. A single minifigure of James Bond inspired by his appearance in No Time to Die is included, though there is space for at least one more in the vehicle. Based on information from a previous listing, this may cost €19.99 for 298 pieces, though that’s not confirmed.

Minifigure This collectible LEGO Speed Champions Fast & Furious 1970 Dodge Charger R/T (76912) replica car model kit captures the look of the iconic muscle car.Comparisons have inevitably been drawn between the new Dodge Charger and similar Dodge models from earlier sets. The six-wide example in 75893 2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon and 1970 Dodge Charger R/T portrays the same car, while the 1970 Dodge Challenger shares obvious similarities with the new design. Their proportions and shaping are essentially identical, but necessary changes have been made, especially around the front. Like so many limited supercars, all 99 Pagani Utopias have already been allocated to customers, so you’re never going to get your hands on the real thing (even if you have the material wealth). A LEGO Speed Champions version is a happy consolation prize, and would also mark the theme’s first-ever collaboration with Italian manufacturer Pagani. 76916 Porsche 963 quarter circle tiles create a similar effect on the bodywork, located behind the front wheels. The single door mirror appears equally accurate, matching Dom's vehicle from the movies, but my favourite details are undoubtedly the door handles. They are constructed using roller skates and the handles' tiny scale is remarkable.

Therefore perishable goods such as food and drink cannot be returned. The only LEGO Speed Champions 2023 set rumoured to be inspired by a movie – following this summer’s 76911 007 Aston Martin DB5 and 76912 Fast & Furious 1970 Dodge Charger R/T – is also the only one said to be launching in January 2023. 76917 Fast & Furious Nissan Skyline GT-R R34 will supposedly be based on Brian O’Conner’s silver and blue car from the high-octane Hollywood franchise. 76918 McLaren F1 LM & McLaren Solus GT And when they're done, they can proudly display the LEGO sports car or pop the Dominic Toretto minifigure behind the wheel and head out for high-speed race action! For reasons of hygiene and safety, personal grooming products, cosmetics or items of intimate clothing cannot be returned. Fortunately, this model does capture the forward rake of Dom's car and looks outstanding when viewed from both flanks. The decorated wheel caps are brilliant and this vehicle fits seamlessly into the wider Speed Champions range, measuring 17cm in length. I dislike the bulky structure behind the rear wheels though, which deviates from the movies.
