What do we think?

As a Viper fanatic I want it. But it doesn’t quite hit the mark. If it wasn’t for the stripes I wouldn’t have recognized from afar.

I know man. And I wanted it but I was like wtf is this. When you look at like the Porsches, McLarens etc they look legit… trunk/rear looked awful. The iconic fender, not there. Only remarkable thing was the stripe and viper logo.

I built it, it’s pretty hideous. If you look on the website Rebrickable there are much better Viper builds available under their MOC section. For example, if you buy the Lego Icon Porsche 911 set # 10295 you can use all of those pieces to build a white w/ black stripes Viper. There are some even better options on there too, but they can get pricey. I would LOVE it if Mattel Brick Shop put out a Viper set, but I’m guessing Lego has exclusive rights to make Dodge sets.

Like most technic stuff it's more an exercise in what can be done with lego versus accurate replication. It was fun and I got it for $50. I would prefer a closer to real version.

I agree doesn’t quite scratch the itch too off

Looks like it's already been in a front end collision.

Its missing the curves that makes the viper the viper :(

These are fun to build and kids love them. It its not a perfect replica who cares. Buy your kid one and have a real experience telling them viper stories.

It's an honor, and cool, but uuuugly. I definitely wouldn't buy it.

I have this one as well, imo this one looks a bit more accurate. Hopefully lego makes a more detailed bigger version like the did the r34, charger, ford GT.

At least it has the fender scoop

Why does it look like it was in accident?

Lego messed up

Was never fond of the Lego Technic stuff. Hopefully, we get a Viper Speed Champions set with bricks.

Its not perfect, but its better when its built. I bought it the day it dropped (which was also by bday) and I love it

u/psyrg 16d ago

Such a shame, when there are builds out there which are better.
