Review: Take your time! - Got this Technic and had it complete in
nearly a night. Got to the last bags and realized I made a huge
mistake in bag one. This Lego goes together so solid, that I
couldn’t correct the error and had to start at the beginning,
will ALL BAGS OPEN. Needless to say the search for pieces has
been the hurdle but I’m back to where I was. Be sure you are
meticulously checking your work or you will share my headache.
Great build though, looks great and is a fun build.
Review: One of the best Lego models yet! - This was a fantastic
build. I spent a few days working on it. It was a lot of fun, and
it was nice seeing it all come together in the end. What I like
most about it is how solid it is compared to other Lego Technic
cars I've built in the past. You can literally pick this car up
almost any way you can imagine, and not have to worry about
breaking something, because just about every part you touch is
very solid, and all of the parts and locked in place by other
parts. The Ford GT, for example, is not that solid. If you pick
it up wrong, parts of the quarter panels start to bend and flex,
and parts may come off. Same with the doors on the Ford GT. You
pick the car up wrong, and the doors will break off, or they'll
open up and you could end up dropping the whole car. This car is
also very big, so make sure you have a good large place to
display it. The suspension is very firm. It's almost as if it
doesn't have a suspension at all, but I guess race cars have firm
suspensions anyway. Same applies to the turning radius. The
wheels don't seem to turn sharp enough, but that might be the
same as a real race car as well. Anyway, this is a fantastic
model, and it's one of my favorite builds. I've done several of
these, and this is one of the best ones. Definitely get it!
