Great overall set
on January 3, 2025
Posted by: LTCtofu
Verified Purchase:No
I enjoyed the build overall, especially moving parts like the rear differential, 6 cylinder engine, suspensions, etc...
I wasn't too keen on two pages of stickers that I was constantly putting on the lego pieces, but it does look nice overall.
The build time takes around 6 hours non-stop uninterrupted, but definitely plan for 7+ hours as you'll be taking stretch breaks and being mesmerized by some of the moving parts.

Great Detail

As a fan of Formula One and Hamilton/Mercedes this was a perfect opportunity for me to see the proportions of the car . As an 80 year old retired Architect, I found this model to be very good.

Fun but missing parts
on April 4, 2024
Posted by: T_Rung
I am happy with the details this AMG F1. It was all fun until it finally happened....the missing parts started. I ended up using or skipping some steps because I don't have time for replacing these parts. Missing parts wasn't that important that I can continue with the build. I don't mind the stickers at all, I actually enjoyed it. NOTE to Legos: Please double check your parts! I am already spending a lot of money, it's not fun to wait for missing parts.

Response from LEGOBy Haeun, LEGO® Customer Service, April 5, 2024
Oh no! It's disappointing when your build isn’t going as planned. You can request the parts you need at LEGO.build/BricksPieces-BV for free of charge, or get in touch at LEGO.build/Service-BV and we'll request them for you!

Awesome Experience
on April 12, 2024
Posted by: BrickRacer87
I have recently fallen into the hole of buying all the recent Lego Formula 1 releases and this was my latest and best one. The attention to detail in the steering and suspension is awesome. I loved assembling the engine and differential. The fact that they move is just icing on the cake. It is an extremely fun build it took me about 8 hrs to do. I highly recommend for a collector or a great parent and child project. It can help teach how basic mechanics work.

Wow, it’s big!

Another intricate technic set that will provide hours of enjoyment. Detailed, life like engineering, keeps you wanting to keep building. But for the price, pace yourself and enjoy the process, not just the end product which is amazing to behold. Highly recommend, have fun and keep building

Pretty Good

Another great build, wish there was either more detail and/or stickers as with the McClaren F1 for the tires. Just does not look good being plain/bland as it comes

Unique build
on March 16, 2024

Challenging set, incorporates dizzying array of wings and suspension elements. Not much is intuitive about this build so it makes this one of the more challenging sets.
