Hapori Tohu Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 Yesterday LEGO announced an awesome new Technic set, 42056 Porsche 911 GT3 RS. I was busy traveling home from BrickCan, but now that we're back we can share all the information with you! We have the designer video, hi-resolution images, and the full press release of this giant and detailed model. If you're into Technic or supercars, this is definitely worth checking out, so read on to see what makes up this impressive model.

Ta-metru_defender Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 Oh, oh, that's a hot car. Not sure how I feel about the burnt orange instead of a silver, but alright.

Toa Smoke Monster Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 I'll admit that I'm not the biggest car person who ever lived, but even I will say that is one cool Lego car set. I probably won't be picking it up though, as I'm saving my money for other things. Quote Everyone is one choice away from being the bad guy in another person's story.

Rahkshi Lalonde Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 i'm bad at spatial proportions, could you fit a small bionicle in there, like protector of jungle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lyichir Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 i'm bad at spatial proportions, could you fit a small bionicle in there, like protector of jungle? The seats are pretty large (around seven modules wide, from the looks of it), so I reckon you just might be able to fit one.

Jobber Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 I'm kinda interested in this. I might pick it up and start a technic vehicle collection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The seats are pretty large (around seven modules wide, from the looks of it), so I reckon you just might be able to fit one. What about a technic figure? Again judging solely by the size of the seats, a technic figure would definitely fit—but they'd probably be unrealistically SMALL, if anything. 1 Quote Formerly Lyichir: Rachira of Influence Aanchir's and Meiko's brother Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooster Nui Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 I'm definitely going to try to buy this. It's great to see an authentic model-based set that comes with a good box, giant book, exclusive wheel molds and an exclusive printed number plate (which differs from set-to-set). The price isn't as shabby as what people make it sound like, especially when you consider that it comes with all those extras along with the pieces for the model itself. I feel it's also worth mentioning that this can be considered a Technic-cousin to last year's Speed Champion car which is also based on a Porsche, the Porsche 911 GT3 RSR to be exact. The same can also be said for the Porsche 911 GT3 R Hybrid, which is actually bundled with the GT3 RSR in the set "Porsche 911 GT Finish Line."

Meiko Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 but in all seriousness, I made it better: http://imgur.com/a/kFpUX Would be super cool if the set could be custom ordered in other colors even though I realize that's impractical for LEGO to do. But I know a lot of owners who would love the LEGO set to match their car.
