TV cars could be part of LEGO Speed Champions’ future
TV cars could be part of LEGO Speed Champions’ future as a designer has referred to the new collection of movie vehicles, mentioning TV too.
In a recent roundtable session including Racing Brick, lead designer Chris Stamp referred to the upcoming 76917 2 Fast 2 Furious Nissan Skyline GTR (R34) as part of the ‘Movie and TV’ vehicle collection of the theme. This same phrase is repeated towards the end of the footage too, suggesting that it’s no mistake.
In a previous interview following the reveal of the first movie cars, Chris mentioned ‘iconic movie and TV vehicles’ as potential sources for these sets, and the fact that TV is still being referred to four months later suggests that the design team are still open to vehicles from series as well as films.
It has been reported that the team are open to doing more in the future, provided the first three are well-received. According to Chris, the team know that there is demand for these vehicles, stating “We heard you guys, you want more of them.”
At the time of writing, this range only includes movie cars from the 007 and Fast and Furious franchises with 76911 007 Aston Martin DB5, 76912 Fast & Furious 1970 Dodge Charger R/T as well as 76917 2 Fast 2 Furious Nissan Skyline GTR (R34) coming in 2023. Full details have yet to be revealed following an initial listing and note that there are no TV series Speed Champions cars just yet, with none confirmed for the future at this time.
