[birdman86]

Could be a 2016 set? All google shows me is that 42056 is an "Ultimate IP Car" aka intellectual property, no detail otherwise. The pic doesn't show up on google reverse search either.

Edit: LilDrunkerSmurf got it

[rage2]

God damn. That's awesome.

I'm gonna buy one when it launches for sure.

[sputnik]

I really hope that the camo is printed on the pieces and not just a mountain of stickers.

[EK 2.0]

Ooooohhhhhh I am excited for this kit....

Been itching to build another set after my VW Bus...

I hope it's the other way around, would look so much better without the camo.

Some sources say that the test pattern will not be included in the final model

So Porsche made Lego put test pattern on a toy car and in no way will look like a real Porsche?

[GoChris]

Totally will buy that!

I've never seen multi colour technic pieces, so if it's going to look like that it's going to be stickers.

Definitely going to pick one up :thumbsup:

[GTR_Auto]

I need this!

[Sentry]

1:10? She's a beast.

Maybe I should start playing with lego again and get all the baller sets I never got as a kid. :D

[msommers]

I need this in my life.

TFS.

[R154]

I WANT IT NOW, GOD DAMN IT.

[jdmXSI]

Price comparison, the F40 is 1:18 scale, and $120 CAD.

I bet it's at least $250 CAD

[A2VR6]

:drool: Awesome! Will totally get this when it comes out.

I have a feeling it will be lower. Somewhere in the $199-229 range.

The 24 Hour LeMans car is $159 and is huge.

[R154]

I dont care how much it costs. I am ordering it as soon as it is available.

F40 is Creator line with normal brick = more plastics.

This is Technic line = less plastics.

I would bet $160-$200 range.

[LilDrunkenSmurf]

I just want to know when I can pre-order it.

[Disoblige]

dude, I just read this:


42056 {Unnamed Super Car} - The stickers shown on this model will not appear on the final version. The pattern seen on this model is intended to replicate the camouflage graphic used on real cars when in testing. I think it is a Porsche 911 GT3 RS.

That's genius haha, putting the camo on similar to how a real car is spotted :rofl:

[legendboy]

my kids are going to be super jealous when I buy this

[jampack]

I actually don't collect technics but this would be my very first one!!! Awesome!!

Pretty cool! Funny how the guy "thinks" it's a GT3 RS. It's pretty damn obvious lol.

Maybe he thinks he could put a motor in it, like Meccano.

Ultimate Budget Baller car!

[blownz]

My son will love this. He has a bunch of the technic lego. Hopefully it works with the motor so you can add lights and make it drive. :thumbsup:

[FraserB]

I'd say this will come in closer to $300 than anything.

[klumsy_tumbler]

SO MUCH WANT :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool:

I think that's only for the 13 stores in the article. Rest of the world August 1st.

[Mitsu3000gt]

Where can you buy this kind of thing in Calgary? Or does everyone just order online?

I have a sealed, unopened one of these....are they actually worth $1500 now? Or is this eBay listing crazy?

Great website, thanks!

Not too bad at $750 still.

[npham]

Are these sets limited edition? How hard is this going to be to purchase on release day?

[LilDrunkenSmurf]

They usually allow a pre-sale to VIP members first, and then it's released to the general public. All these "exclusives" like the Ferrari and Mini are still around. Expect them to be hard to find the first few months, and then easily available. It'll probably be around for a few years, then retired.

[austic]

I will be in Vienna that week, might have to pick it up.
If I can buy more than one I could grab a few for beyond.

[jampack]

On lego store (online) now for June 1st.

That's what I thought also as per article on previous post but a buddy of mine in Edmonton sent me a picture of it and he said he got it from the Lego Store over there. So... I got one today.. :D

[nismodrifter]

Went to Lego store @ Guildford Mall yesterday, told they expect more than enough in stock, same happened when F40 was released.

Piles of F40s on the shelf ( I haven't built mine yet )
VW bus looks cool.

Will check back later, $3fiddy for Lego, I'm not that baller yet.

[SilverRex]

Not sure if I get one, I will ever put the panels on.

[K3RMiTdot]

Taking my sweet time with building it - about 4 -5 hours in. Just finished the PDK gearbox.

[superflychief]

Picked mine up at the store after ordering it online. Didn't knowit was in stores at the same time. Finished building it in a couple of nights and I have to say it's amazing. What a build. So much detail. Worth every penny.

[LilDrunkenSmurf]

Got an email saying they're delaying all online orders til August, as the packaging has been damaged during shipment, and they're offering a $25 gift card to those who wait.

Called Chinook, they have 2 in stock, put one on hold. I'll pick it up after work today and cancel my online order.


Dear LEGO® Customer,

We’re really sorry to keep you waiting for your LEGO® Technic 42056 Porsche 911 GT3 RS.

We try really hard to make sure every LEGO set arrives in perfect condition and we’ve recently discovered that some boxes for the LEGO Technic Porsche are being damaged during shipping. We want to make sure LEGO fans ordering this set have the best experience, so we’ve decided to delay sending the sets until we’ve fixed the problem. Our teams are now working hard to improve the packaging and we plan to start sending out orders again in August.

We understand how disappointing this may be for you and would like to give you a $25 gift card for the inconvenience. We’ll send the gift card as soon as your LEGO Technic Porsche ships. It will arrive separately and can be used towards a future LEGO purchase.

Alternatively, you may be able to find the Porsche at a LEGO Store near you. Although quantities will be very limited, the boxes are getting to our stores without damage to the package. If you’re able to find one and want to cancel your current order, please call us at (800) 835-4386. We’re here for you from 8am to 10pm EST, Monday to Friday and from 10am to 6pm EST, Saturday and Sunday.

Kind regards,

Your Service Team

[EK 2.0]
