“While this is by no means the only bi-plane LEGO has produced, it is possibly the best one. There have been two other Sopwith Camel sets in LEGO’s history – 3451 in 2001, and a mini version, the 40049 polybag in 2012. ”

“The Sopwith Camel was a hugely significant aircraft, and not just for Lego. It was famously tricky to fly, with a deliberately front-heavy instability that made it highly manoevreable – a feature of most modern fighter aircraft, which are so unstable they wouldn’t fly at all... More without computer controls.”

“I can't remember the last time I had so much fun putting a model together. The detail, accuracy, and functionality are all jaw-dropping! I don't think we've gotten something so lovingly designed since the heady days of Model Team. A heaping TON of unique parts and colors,... More amazing functions, massive size and jaw-dropping accuracy make this one of LEGO's best efforts. It's as close as we're gonna get to the return of Model Team!”
