Flying Moon Car Reviews
BrickEconomy Expert Review
“The 40789 Flying Moon Car, launching July 1 for LEGO Insiders, retains the charm of its fan-designed concept while refining several elements for its final 211-piece version. Key updates include more colorful and detailed minifigures, subtle adjustments in color tones and parts usage, a redesigned windscreen, and a more polished lunar display stand that enhances visual focus without straying far from the original design.”
Jays Brick Blog
“40789 Flying Moon Car is a 211-piece model and was the winner of the ‘Exploring The Cosmos‘ Challenge. The winning Idea was ‘Vehicle: Moon Car‘ by Fan Designer EnchantingNoodle. The set comes with 2 space-traveler minifigures, wearing modern LEGO City spacesuits, but they... More look kinda strange bald in their goldfish bowl-esque helmets, but they’re kinda endearing in a retro way.”

About Ideas Promotional
The LEGO Ideas theme, which started in 2008 as an offshoot of the Japanese website Cuusoo, then formally known as LEGO Cuusoo, is based around a website which allows users to submit ideas for LEGO products to be turned into potential sets available commercially. If fellow users in the LEGO Ideas community up vote the project to 10000 then LEGO Group has a committee which votes on whether to build the set and release it. If the project is approved and cleared for production, it is developed and later released as an official set under the "LEGO Ideas" banner and the original designer receives 1% of the royalties and a number of free sets. Typically, a few projects are approved a year and most are rejected due to various restrictions.
Promotional was introduced in 2019 and currently consists of 10 sets. As of today,
40698 Books Are My Passion is the most valuable Promotional set with an estimated new/factory sealed value of $95.
