Shelby Cobra

This kit was a Christmas gift for me from my son as this is my favorite car . I am 72 so a magnifying glass was helpful at times to see details. It was very fun to assemble, especially since sometimes you cannot tell what you are building until you finish a section. It is amazing how little square pieces can come together to create something so awesome. Thank you LEGO.

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!!!

Really Nice but...

... It is quite fragile! You have to handle it carefully to avoid pieces falling off of it. The build was pretty straightforward, but the colors don't work well in the instruction book, making it hard to see. The Builder App worked much better and I recommend using the Builder App to build this. There are a couple of steps that are confusing in the instruction book, but the app helps make things clear because the colors are much better and you can zoom in and rotate the assembly in question to look at it from different views. I have to mention that the kit creatively uses a Lego coffee cup, two Lego spoons, and a lego fork as part of the build. Entertaining! Overall, it is very well done and looks fantastic! Great to display and great for any car enthusiast. Recommended!

Mixed Feelings

I loved the look of this product:however; the instructions I found lacking compared to normal and visually hard to identify parts because of booklet background colour.

Shelby Cobra

This is a great Lego set! I love some of the building techniques as they are truly different and use flower pieces to identify where pieces click in. Very few stickers and lots of printed pieces. Very good quality and looks great as a result! Definitely recommend this one!

Solid and fun build

The build process was a lot of fun and straightforward. I do have to deduct a little for having stickers in the kit. They unfortunately never look as good as a printed piece and the destination legos are not embossed in any way to assist with centering. The rigidity of the rear quarter panels was also a little lackluster compared to the Porsche 911 set, but you only notice if you give it a wiggle. Overall a ton of fun and mostly worth the price.

Oh no! That's no fun. If the stickers aren't stuck in the packaging, visit LEGO.build/BricksPieces to request them!

Not Good.

This one sucked from the beginning. I could barely see the dark blue bricks on the grey background. The build is flimsy and comes apart easily. I didn't enjoy this one one bit. I really wanted to.
