McLaren W1 Reviews
BrickEconomy Expert Review
“The LEGO McLaren W1 captures the sleek, aerodynamic design of McLaren’s latest hypercar with precision, featuring a sharply angled nose, sculpted air intakes, and an adjustable rear wing. Its detailed cockpit includes a removable roof and an accurate interior complete with an infotainment display. The included Minifigure, dressed in a McLaren racing suit with helmet and accessories, rounds out this well-executed Speed Champions addition.”
“The building experience continued to deliver with extremely fine detail work and part usage. I especially liked the black meat cleavers that help form the front trim of the vehicle. As for great parts, I found two parts that got me excited. The first is a 3×1 curved slope.... More Unlike the standard curved slope that stands a full brick tall, this one only rises to two plates in height. This gave the sides of the vehicle some smooth, elongated curves without adding too much bulk. The other part is a convex cheese-slope. This part will allow builders to create much more precise edges when using the 30-degree cheese-slope. The part in question is not obvious in the model since it is used a bit more like filler. It just so happens that its unique shape helps accommodate the shape of other parts.”
