An extraordinary LEGO car for an extraordinary gentleman
The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen movie received mixed reviews — a shame if you were a fan of the comic series on which it was (loosely) based. However, the production design was a definite highlight, with some amazing steampunk-styled creations popping off the screen. Martin Redfern has taken inspiration from the film’s rendition of Captain Nemo’s automobile to create this stunning car. Sleek retro lines are complemented with neat golden trim and some impressive grunt up front — all coming together in stylish steampunk fabulousness…
The opening doors allow for a good view of the car’s interior. There isn’t a detail missing here, with gearstick, door handles, and dashboard instrumentation all present and correct. There are even seat adjusters on the plush-looking front seats!
To top it all, Martin has included a fantastic-looking engine lurking beneath that elongated bonnet. By my count, this is a V-24! More than enough horsepower to get those four front wheels turning at speed. (Although seeing as this is Captain Nemo’s conveyance, should that be “seahorsepower” instead?)
