Speed Champions
With a large chunk of the world stuck indoors, we've got something cheery to share today as LEGO have released one of the promised 1H2020 sets - the Fast and Furious Dom's Charger model that we'd been expecting post the announcment of the licence in January. It's not the first time we've seen a 70s Charger R/T in LEGO form but this one promises a more substantial build.
Almost out of nowhere almost LEGO have dropped a new Creator Expert series vehicle - the Fiat 500. This iconic italian supermini joins the ranks of the Volkswagen Beetle, MINI Cooper and Ferrari F40 in the Creator Expert Vehicles series and is available from tomorrow. If you've run out of things to build following January's wave of sets, look no futher.
After initially leaking in some game files all the way back at the start of December, the latest patch notes for Forza Horizon 4 let us know the Bugatti Chiron has been added to the LEGO Speed Champions expansion for the game.
With Spielwarenmesse in swing yesterday in Germany, we saw the announcement of the next Ultimate Creator Series car after the Bugatti Chiron and Porsche GT3 RS - a Lamborghini. LEGO are still keeping the exact model under wraps with this blacked out teaser shot - let's find out what we know and what's to come on this exciting new model for Summer 2020.
After rumours circling in October last year, we've had an official announcment of the partnership between LEGO Technic and the Fast and the Furious movie franchise which is going to produce Technic set 42111, released in April 2020.
With some internal game files revealing 120 potential new vehicles in the Forza franchise our eyes were drawn to one particular listing suggesting there might be more to come for the Speed Champions expansion to Horizon 4, specifically the Bugatti Chiron.
We covered it as part of our 2020 Speed Champions sets post after it's release a few days ago, but we're bringing you the full details of the new, 8 wide, Nissan GT-R NISMO model coming as part of next year's releases along with all the images and info from the Nissan launch event in Japan.
With a (blurry) leaked image from LEGO's 2020 polybag/small set releases we've found out there'll be a Speed Champions polybag set featuring the Lamborghini Huracan Super Trofeo Evo. For those of you not excited about shelling out the relatively high price tag for the full on, 8 wide, Huracan and Urus double pack this could be just the answer.
The 2020 LEGO Speed Champions sets have been revealed with the release of more images today. It's official - we're seeing the Ferrari F8 Tributo and 1985 Audi Sport quattro S1 being added to the Speed Champions line. This is our first nearly complete look at all the sets we're going to be able to buy next year.
With the LA Autoshow starting this week LEGO have chosen to reveal their collaboration with Top Gear - an app powered remote control rally car. Fitted with LEGO's new Control+ app-based RC system, this model has a strong price tag and a low part count.
