I got this off the USA7's site so can't take credit for the discovery, but for those that haven't seen the video, very impressive.

they say it will be released Oct 1st at $79. 770 pieces with removable nose and hood. I wonder if I will be able to modify the engine to look like my Miata lump with the exhaust on the left side. I may have to raid my old lego stash at my parents house that they are saving for my kids.

I built a Lego locost today. It's a bit like my real locost, doesn't really resemble a real Caterham, and built with the parts at hand. Maybe I'll get one of the cool sets for Christmas.

Yo, Kristian- Kinda looks like a Slotus to me... Is the driver supposed to be angry or scared? If the car is a Slotus, it could go either way! :rofl:

I guess it kinda does look like the Slotus. Needs more purple and green though, but the driver is wearing purple pants at least. Angry or scared could go either way here too.
