Lamborghini had the final say on the colour, and according to racing brick the designer originally made this in black with gold rims which would have been amazing.
The Speed Champions version was much more impressive and it’s redundant to do another one in the same color. Despite the larger size, this one looks a little disproportionate. I wish they had done a Miura.
Why all the hate it’s a beautiful add to a Lego car collection mine is on its way and can’t wait to build it!!!salute from the Netherlands my fellow Lego freaks.
wait until you builded it xD the color looks like out of a heavy smoker household. color is like 50shades of white mixed with yellow....its realy bad.... the rear tires.... its just sad on a fucking lambo to but 2 wheels together....for 180€! the porportions of the care are so off... underfloor of the car is made so bad you dont want to lift it....because its not designed at all.... oh and you get so many different colors.... this set is a shame and realy shows how much you as the customer are worth to them. other companyes sell you insane sets for that price. this car should be like 70€ or 60€ zhen wit would be ok-ish
It's a pretty good model of a true icon so it would be great to have one sat on my shelf but as with most Lego these days it's very pricey so I'll wait for a good sale.
Great review, and fantastic set. Expensive yes, but no stickers, new rims/parts to make up the elaborate shaping, and look definitely make it a better value than most of the others. A couple of things. Good point about the customization as it it's nice to have options, but in this particular case I like that you pay for what you build/display without a lot of extra parts shelved away. The Corvette was definitely a step in the right direction with only the top being removable. While I don't hate the white, would have preferred a more interesting color though according to a design interview with Racing brick yellow or silver or whatever else Lego initially tried made it look too much like a toy opposed to a serious model so ultimately they went with white. Definitely looking forward to building/displaying this one and great to see another iconic exotic sports car in the lineup with similar scale.
Would be so much easier sell for me if it included build variants like earlier Icons cars. Build it as either the flashy 5000QV or the original clean LP400, without the wing and fender flares. Also perhaps different color.
I commend the effort in this, but not enough done right for the $180 price tag. There are too many detail mistakes with this. Speed Champions Countach was better done and price is very affordable.
The price is insane and i'm so dissapointed in this set. It doesn't even look good. It's crazy that the Speed champions version looks much better while It's so much smaller
They didn't capture the shape perfectly, in my opinion. I will either wait for a) price discount, b) colour varient c) moccer improvements, or any combination of those. It's close, but not quite there yet for me personally.
The slope is too deep, dip in the hood is too deep, the front of the hood is supposed to be in line with the sloped windshield, no pop-up lights is huge negative. The front look more like a replica care kit!
@@LC25av I know. I will wait and see what the LEGO Community comes up with mods of this. Then maybe I will buy the set if it has a substantial discount.
Sorry, but this thing is a disaster 🙈🙄. The shape is far away from a Countach! Since it has a mid-engine, the driver's cabin has to be one or even two studs more towards the front, the twin tires at the back are a disgrace (well, maybe Lego wanted to point out that Lamborghini started with building tractors 😂). The line of the fenders is way too steep. And all that for 180 bucks? That's just a bad joke...
The moc done with the Porsche pieces looks better.. Price is ridiculous too... Love Lego and countach but to me this is not s great set, does not seems a countach at all.. It s ugly ... With the same price I buy the speed champion (looks better) , the moc on aliexpress, sluban countach and a die cast 1/24 and 60 usd in the pocket..
Please forgive I would pay 80 Euros for this it is not well built and is to small and Lego lies to much any more to get my respect! I however respect you by not using the words I want to use when talking about Lego I hope that helps peace to you!

this set is a shame and realy shows how much you as the customer are worth to them.
other companyes sell you insane sets for that price.

The price of these bricks is getting out of hand.
Too true, it’s getting harder for me to collect these new sets
Lepin is the answer
I'm less worried of Lego and more worried about my grocery bill. Which has nearly doubled
This should be a 129.99$ set, not 180$.
You mean 229,99? 🎉
Absolutely, I got the DB5 for 140,mustang and 911 for 130. Its now a luxury product and should be almost perfect in design for 180.
More like $60
Right but considering the pricing of the Camaro and the ugly vette it could have been even worse

If this wasn't over one hundred bucks, I would get this for my older brother. He loved this vehicle growing up.

Best looking lego car so far. I think because the contach was already so angular.

Speed champions did make this car on a smaller and affordable version but this version looks like a bigger version of that model
I got the Speed Champions version. It was $19.99 and looks amazing. I'll stick to that one.
Awesome
Great review
Give me 80's red Testarossa instead !
most accurate ? dude buy new glasses
The 2 widely done mocs from the 911 Porsche set were done better!
The Speed Champions one is one of the best speed champions sets, this one looks like a bigger version, not more detailed
Like a chevy S10 set from the 80s, in lego
I commend the effort in this, but not enough done right for the $180 price tag. There are too many detail mistakes with this. Speed Champions Countach was better done and price is very affordable.
if it was yellow i probably would have bought it. as it is, ill wait to find a used one for cheap someday
It is yellow(ish).
It doesnt come with a car cover?
The price is insane and i'm so dissapointed in this set.
It doesn't even look good.
It's crazy that the Speed champions version looks much better while It's so much smaller
Firas moc built with Porsche 911 pieces looks way better....
We got a Lego Cordon before Lego Bumblebee
I'm surprised they didn't go for the Diablo
Yeah and the Diablo is a lot more iconic too

Please take a break on white cars Lego! I wish they’d reissue that F40 Ferrari, I missed it and I’m not paying $400 + on eBay. 😂
Wheel arches kill it for me. Lazy way out, design-wise. I don’t have a solution to the problem, but this ain’t it.
Absolutely beautiful and absolutely worth the $180 price tag
the front is so ugly, wtf...
The slope is too deep, dip in the hood is too deep, the front of the hood is supposed to be in line with the sloped windshield, no pop-up lights is huge negative. The front look more like a replica care kit!
@@dmonsef dont worry, theirs gonna be improvements by the community on the moc websites
@@LC25av I know. I will wait and see what the LEGO Community comes up with mods of this. Then maybe I will buy the set if it has a substantial discount.
@@dmonsef Just buy the Mould King 10045 Countach und you're fine. 😉
It s all ugly... Moc done with Porsche 11 looks better...
🙋♀
Hell no. For an item sitting on a shelf doing nothing I get the aliexpress knock off for fraction of the price.

Looks like a cheap kit car based on a Pontiac Fiero.

This whole thing is so janky looking and generally ugly. Very disappointing.
180 is way to much
Please forgive I would pay 80 Euros for this it is not well built and is to small and Lego lies to much any more to get my respect! I however respect you by not using the words I want to use when talking about Lego I hope that helps peace to you!
Better spending 40usd on mould king/Firas moc one... Looks much better than this one.
