My go-to gift is Legos. This was an expensive purchase for me. I was disappointed in receiving a box with a smashed corner and a little embarrassed giving it as a gift. With that being said, the recipient really enjoyed the build and loved the details and stories throughout the instruction booklet. When the build was complete and they were showing off their build they were able to share the fun facts they learned from the booklet.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Have put together several Technic kits and had excellent experience. I found this ICON difficult to build using just the book and "Bricklink's Studio". Of coursr these are only 2D. I should have used "LEGO Builder so I could get 3D views. Once done the kit tends to fall apart as the sub-assemblies are not very well tied to the body. The whole back is now in pieces on my desk. I will use "LEGO Builder" to rebuild the kit once I get past my frustration. I had good luck with the ICON Rivendell kit. I have three "TECHNIC " kits (Bugatti Bolide, McLaren Senna, and Porsche 911) in hand and have always had good luck with TECHNIC kits. After that there are several ICON Cars (McLaren MP 4/4, Chevrolet Camero Z28, and the Back to the future Kit) in mind but am now suspicious about the ICON car kits. Any suggestions on the McLaren Senna GTR?
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Oh no! Thank you for sharing your building experience and we're sorry to hear you were frustrated when your kit fell apart. When you decide to build the set again we'd suggest to make sure all the pieces are pressed tightly together as there may be a piece just a little off from where it should be. If you'd like help troubleshooting the build please reach out to us at LEGO.build/Service-BV, our brick helpers can assist getting your Shelby Cobra on the road!

I can’t exactly agree with the price, but it’s a classic, so it’ll do. Really good build experience

Some really interesting building techniques in this one - amazing how the angles of the car are formed just with bricks. Highly recommended.

Lots of small pieces, great details. many pieces that were only two tabs that then went into another with only one tab. That made pieces prone to pop apart while building. Made it about halfway before giving up after repeatedly trying to put the model together. Boxed it up and donated
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Either I have the worst luck in the world or Lego has a quality control issue because at least a third of the sets I buy are missing pieces. And this one is no exception. And to make matters worse, when I went to order the missing pieces for this set, the part number doesn’t exist according to them. Then I went through all of the available parts for this set and it’s not there either. I tried to chat with someone and waited forever.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
