Back in September we learned that LEGO and Top Gear were partnering to produce an exclusive Top Gear Technic set and now we can see the fruits of that collaboration. The Top Gear Rally car is highly details and probably uses a TON of stickers (grrr).
It also uses the CONTROL+ app similar to the previously released Batmobile. The app allows for steering control, multi-touch and gyro-control along with providing custom challenges and achievements to unlock. More details after the extensive gallery.
INTRODUCING THE NEW LEGO TECHNIC TOP GEAR RALLY CAR
First ever LEGO Technic Top Gear collaboration revealed at LA Auto Show
Los Angeles, USA: Today, the LEGO Group revealed the first ever LEGO Technic Top Gear Set in partnership with BBC Studios. The new LEGO Technic App Controlled Top Gear Rally Car is an authentic looking GT Rally car for ages 9 years and above and will be available globally from 26th December 2019.
LEGO Technic designers joined forces with the BBC Top Gear team to co-design the body of the car and accompanying stickers to create an ultra-realistic and fast looking racer that fans are sure to enjoy building at home.
The model is remote controlled via the LEGO Technic CONTROL+ app and contains functions such as steering, multi-touch control and gyro control as well as different challenges and achievements to deliver a thrilling, immersive play experience. The rally car comes complete with 1 large motor, 1 XL motor and 1 Bluetooth controlled smart hub.
“It’s exciting to have collaborated with LEGO Technic on this and it’s a very natural fit for the Top Gear brand. The LEGO Technic Top Gear Rally Car is the result of several months hard work from the LEGO and BBC Studios teams and we can’t wait to see it on the shelves soon” said Jason Easy, Head of Licensing UK, BBC Studios.
