LEGO Technic Fast and Furious Toyota Supra MK4 Building Kit- Toy Car for Kids, Boys, and Girls, Ages 9+ - Gift for Birthdays - Realistic Engineering Details - 42204

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] For fans of both LEGO Technic and the Fast & Furious franchise, the Toyota Supra MK IV is a thrilling build that captures the iconic lines and essence of Dom Toretto's legendary ride. Having just completed the build myself, I can confidently say this set delivers on its promise of an engaging experience and a fantastic display piece. Right out of the box, the vibrant orange color immediately grabs your attention, perfectly mirroring the movie car. The "9+" age rating seems appropriate, as the Technic mechanisms offer a satisfying challenge without being overly complex. The build process is, as expected from LEGO Technic, a journey of intricate connections and clever engineering. You'll appreciate how the various components come together to form the car's distinctive shape. What truly shines are the functional elements: the opening doors, the pop-up headlights (a fantastic touch!), and the detailed engine bay that opens up, allowing you to peek at the miniature powerhouse within. The level of detail on the interior, though simplified for a Technic model, is still commendable, giving you a sense of a cockpit ready for action. Once completed, the Supra is a robust and substantial model. It feels solid in your hands, a testament to LEGO's quality. The sticker details, particularly those on the sides, add an extra layer of authenticity and really bring the Fast & Furious vibe to life. While some might prefer printed bricks, the stickers here are well-designed and enhance the overall look. Pros: * Iconic Design: Faithfully recreates the instantly recognizable Toyota Supra MK IV from Fast & Furious. * Engaging Build: Offers a satisfying and intricate building experience for Technic enthusiasts. * Fantastic Features: Opening doors, pop-up headlights, and an opening engine bay add excellent playability and display value. * Vibrant Color: The bright orange is striking and true to the movie car. * Sturdy Construction: Once built, the model feels robust and durable. Cons: * Stickers vs. Printed Bricks: While well-designed, some may prefer printed elements for long-term durability and appearance. In conclusion, the LEGO Technic Fast & Furious Toyota Supra MK IV is a must-have for fans of the franchise and LEGO Technic. It's a challenging yet rewarding build that results in a highly displayable and interactive model. Whether you're reliving your favorite movie scenes or simply admiring the engineering, this Supra is a winner. Just be prepared for it to take pride of place in your collection!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great quality product. It did take me 3 attempts at completing step 1, however that's just user error. Packaging is bright and bold, parts are well made and my daughter loves helping out the small pieces together.
