Hapori Tohu Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 Today LEGO has put out a press release officially announcing the LEGO Speed Champions line. They have partnered with Ferrari, McLaren and Porsche to create seven sets based on cars from the three manufacturers. There are some pictures in the press release as well and the sets look like they capture the famous cars well. I look forward to seeing some of them in person and think it's a cool direction for LEGO to take their perennial racing line of sets.

Click Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 These are definitely some of the coolest cars Lego has produced. 2015 is shaping up to be a great year that will be hard on my wallet.

user-402520536 Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 This is an interesting turn of events. I hope this theme lasts longer than most other racing themes. They were all so short-lived... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meiko Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 Speed Champions is the theme I'm most excited for in 2015, especially since I'm looking forward to future waves besides the one we've seen so far. Since this news article says how they appear to capture the actual cars well, I'll leave this article here that compares the sets to the actual cars (in case any readers didn't already read this on Brickipedia/Brickset/TheBrickBlogger).

Toa Smoke Monster Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 I'm not the biggest car person in the world, but I will admit that these look really cool. Especially the McLaren. That one looks great. Quote Everyone is one choice away from being the bad guy in another person's story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nidhiki of the Shadows Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 Looks like some really solid car sets. Nice partnership. Can't wait to see this roll out! -NotS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
