WATCH: LEGO Technic 42156 Peugeot 9X8 is great for Star Wars fans
As 42156 Peugeot 9X8, it’s not just LEGO Technic fans who should be excited but Star Wars fans as well.
The latest LEGO Technic reveal celebrates Peugeot’s debut of its Hypercar at Le Mans, with a brick-built replica of the Peugeot 9×8. This will be the first time that the Hypercar has driven at the iconic race, bringing its unique profile and build to motorsport. The dark grey, black, and lime green racer launches on May 1, priced at £169.99 / $199.99 / €199.99.
Every detail looks to be captured (aside from the windscreen), from unique roof to the accurately-scaled seven-speed transmission and V6 engine to the 9X8’s suspension and hybrid powertrain system. However, the miniature recreation includes some elements that you wouldn’t expect to see in a car – and that will be of particular interest to Star Wars fans.
