Today, LEGO revealed the next Technic Ferrari car, the legendary Ferrari 488 GTE. The new 42125 Ferrari 488 GTE AF CORSE #51 set is a massive 1,677-piece replica featuring all the real car’s authentic features and beautiful design. The set will be available starting January 1, 2021, priced at $169.99/€179,99/£169.99. According to the press release, the new Ferrari 488 GTE will be equipped with fully independent suspension, a functioning steering wheel, and a fake V8 engine under the hood. Conceptually, the new Technic Ferrari model is similar to the 2019’s LEGO Technic 42096 Porsche 911 RSR. Both cars are of the same scale being smaller and less detailed than LEGO Technic supercars like 42115 Lamborghini Sián FKP 37. Once completed, 42125 Ferrari 488 GTE AF is 48cm (19 in) long, making it just 2cm (1 in) shorter than 42096 Porsche 911. LEGO Technic 42125 Ferrari 488 GTE AF CORSE #51 will...

Geography buffs rejoice! Based on the volcanic Mount Rainier in Washington state, Elemental Lego presents this very cool topographical design built out of LEGO. Each colored layer represents a step in elevation. The builder rests this colorful creation on a base of black bricks and slopes. The interesting and multilayered topographical portion is composed of wing pieces, plates, and lots of tiles in all kinds of shapes and sizes. Personally this is the first time I have seen subject-matter like this rendered using LEGO bricks and pieces, and I think it really works. Who knew that LEGO could be a great medium for this kind of mapping? The post Contours, elevation, topography, all that good stuff. appeared first on The Brothers Brick.

Making a creation in microscale is something I really admire because it’s hard to do. Making one that also looks visually pleasing is even harder. With this tiny TIE Interceptor, Dan Ko proves he is an expert when it comes to making these kinds of LEGO builds. I love when builders manage to use a seemingly single use part in a completely different way. The use of the bottom half of the Darth Vader helmet to create a Star Wars ship is pure gold.
