Lego has actually introduced its following auto release, the Nissan Skyline GT-R from “2 Fast 2 Furious.” The 319-piece package becomes part of the Speed Champions collection, Lego’s line of officially accredited cars and truck sets.

Like the vehicle used in the film, the kit is based on an R34-generation Nissan Skyline, developed in between 1999 as well as 2002. Lego’s version does a fairly good work of illustrating the actual JDM supercar. It’s instantaneously identifiable as an R34, specifically with its squared-off fronts lights as well as famous stagger-sized afterburner taillights. Generally, it’s one of Lego’s more precise adaptations to the low-resolution medium of plastic bricks.

In addition to the base vehicle, both the movie and also the plastic automobile have six-spoke aftermarket wheels, a body set, and massive wing on the trunk. There’s also a laughing gas container where the traveler seat ought to be. The set likewise includes a figure of Paul Walker’s Brian O’Conner, the collection’ police officer transformed road racer turned secret agent lead character.

Lego has provided various other image car packages, such as James Bond’s Aston Martin DB5, the “Ghostbusters” Ecto-1, as well as “Back to the Future” DeLorean. They’ve likewise made the 1969 Dodge Charger from the initial “The Fast & & the Furious” installation. Most of these have actually been sold in both smaller sized sets in the Speed Champions collection, and as bigger standalone kits.

In 2019 an R35 Nissan GT-R Nismo ended up being the initial Japanese automobile certified by Lego. They haven’t done a lot with the Nissan connection given that (Datsun 240Z, any individual?). The flick linkup makes for good advertising and marketing, we would certainly prefer to see a normal Skyline GT-R package without the Y2K-era graphics. However, it makes a great addition to the several Corvettes, McLarens as well as Lamborghinis they’ve already made. The Skyline GT-R goes on sale in January 2023.
