A Great, fun build!

My husband has this same car -'65 Shelby Cobra Factory Five- & the same color, so I asked my Grandson to build this set for him. He enjoyed it very much! He is 8 years old & has been building 18+ Legos since he was 5. He now builds using the 3D instructions on the Lego Builder App on his iPad. He really liked all the detail: the tools & toolbox; the "Hundo" for the dash!

Detailed, enjoyable build

My go-to gift is Legos. This was an expensive purchase for me. I was disappointed in receiving a box with a smashed corner and a little embarrassed giving it as a gift. With that being said, the recipient really enjoyed the build and loved the details and stories throughout the instruction booklet. When the build was complete and they were showing off their build they were able to share the fun facts they learned from the booklet.

Worst experience ever!!

First of all, I drove 90 miles to purchase this kit. I was so excited to buy it. I've built other kits that were difficult, but, this one is a mind blower. It all went well until , I tried to put the front end to the body. It literally fell apart in my hands, not once, but, twice. All the little parts with one piece connecting to another. The blue bricks and the manual with the grey background made it very difficult to match the prices to the build section. The only good thing was only three stickers to attach. I would consider myself an accomplished builder with 200 plus kits. But, by far this one almost made me get out the glue on some parts. I would not recommend this kit to anyone, especially a beginner. I read other reviews and should have listened. I finished the kit and carefully placed it on the shelf. It reminds me of my experience with the T2 Camper. That was a nightmare, too!!!

Not Lego

This is a hot wheels kit in a Lego box. Totally different, inferior quality, not even close

It was a fun build. The kit front end, fenders come apart to easy. Was not happy about that

Poor build

Extremely frustrating to build. It is very fragile. Put one piece on and another falls off. Worse build experience I have ever encountered.

Oh no! Your set should stay together and parts shouldn't be falling off easily. If your set seems like it's not very sturdy, the best thing to do is double-check your build. Sometimes there may be a piece just a little off from where it should be. You’ll also want to make sure that all the pieces are pressed tightly together. Feel free to reach out to us at LEGO.build/Service if you need assistance!

Excellent build

I had a very enjoyable time building the car. I find it to be relaxing and entertaining. Would like for you to build 1970 GTO or an earlier model. I’m sort of a collector of the heavy models of the 6o’s. Thank you

Defective

So i am returning the new Cobra as far as I am concerned this set is defective. I could not get the front end to connect to the body without breaking the top part or the bottom wouldn't line up no matter what I tried

Shelby Cobra

This was a frustrating build. Partly due to my mistakes but also due to some pieces not clicking together tightly. The end result is good but definitely had issues at certain points.
