LEGO is revving its engines.
The toy company is partnering up with General Motors’ Chevrolet division to release its latest vintage car set, the LEGO Chevrolet Camaro Z28. The set is a detailed recreation of the muscle car and includes a working steering wheel, a detailed engine, and doors that open and close.
“The 1969 Camaro Z28 has been turning heads on and off the roads for decades, which is why we are so proud to see it come to life in a brand-new way via LEGO bricks,” says Harlan Charles, product marketing manager at Chevrolet Camaro. “Anyone who loves the iconic design of the 1969 Camaro Z28 now has the thrill of building this set and displaying it in their home.”
LEGO builders will be able to customize their car with racing stripes available in red, white, or gray. They can also choose to build it as a hardtop or a convertible, and choose classic or hideaway headlights to complete the set.
“With its classic lines and sleek design, the 1969 Camaro Z28 is unrivaled in its elegance — which is why it was such a wonderful inspiration for this LEGO design,” says LEGO Designer Sven Franic. “By building this set, you can envision yourself at the wheel, and all but feel the rumble of the engine taking you down an open road.”
The LEGO Chevrolet Camaro Z28 will be available to buy for $169.99 on August 1 at LEGO stores and lego.com/camaro.
