You must have heard of Lego Ideas. It"s a platform where people are invited to submit ideas for new Lego sets. Get to 10,000 supporters", and something called the Review Board" seriously considers offering your set for sale as an official Lego product. And yes, you do get commission. This BMW is one of those sets. Blocky cars always translate well into Lego models for, well, obvious reasons. And because the M1 hails from an era that curves (mostly) forgot, it"s blocky as they come. Frankly we"re surprised nobody thought of this sooner. There are loads of ace cars from the Seventies and Eighties that we"d love to see as Lego models. Someone get going on the Lamborghini Countach and Aston Martin Lagonda, stat. Made from around 1,000 standard Lego bricks, user TOMOELL has rendered BMW"s first mid-engined car as either a standard road car or Procar racer. It has opening doors, an opening engine compartment and working steering. Looks like you can separate the body from the chassis too, for a better look at the engine and interior. At the time of writing, it"s got almost 2,000 supporters and still over 500 days left to run.
