Yeah I mean ur kind of a car guy since you have a mustang. These things are probably the best value sets LEGO makes. They ACTUALLY listen to the fans and give them what they want. They are also really cool if you are an enthusiast and a LEGO fan.
Speed champions is honestly one of the most unique lego car themes,That car designs is so much better than the lego technic cars,its always holds a special place in my heart,i just wish for a ucs car set for speed champions
The creator expert car series is kindve like a UCS Speed Champions line! The Mustang and Porsche 911 especially are like massive, $150 versions of these sets!
Love that you referenced Doug DeMuro for this video! Cool to see LEGO listen to the fans on this one. Hopefully this sort of dynamic translates more often into Star Wars.
@@hoglit282 Oh yeah the gulf livery ford gt and bronco also is a real nice two car set but thats way out of my budget haha. Personally i feel like the gtr is too boxy but they did what they could for that scale
@@nobaski3284 i honestly like the GTR because it's mt favorite car in general. the real ting is a lot more smoother and curvier but i agree it's not 100% accurate.
@@nobaski3284 yeah that wouldvebeen so good if it wasnt boxy i dont hate boxy design obviously bcz i love countach but they shouldve used more smooth parts
It’s a real testament to that LEGO Designer’s love for his work and LEGO in general that someone who’s never gotten into Speed Champions would review a set because of them, give it a 10/10, and possible get into the theme in general 🙌
2:05 “The minifigure in the set has a FERRARI jacket.” Comparable error for car guys to the “original trilogy set” gunship from episode 2. Also did you know that the name “Countach” originated from the word “contacc”, an exclamation of astonishment (Holy shit) in the Piedmontese language.
since speed champion went to 8 wide nearly every set has been a home run. the models are amazing and WELL worth the price point. as car models they're mostly accurate and look good and they have lots and lots of very very cool building techniques and tricks to nail the looks of the real cars. Also these sets have so many good useful small pieces. Lots of SNOT bricks, 1x1 tiles and studs / plates, angled pieces, etc. The level of detail and the quality of the sets is amazing. The 8 wide speed champion sets are by far my most favorite Lego line and one of the most well made and very reasonably priced sets for the build experience, set look, and parts.
Thing I love about Speed Champions, which did help me get back into legos, is they're the right balance of size, price, you get a minifigure, and they're based on real cars.
I randomly bought this one a few days ago and I was really surprized at how fun it is to build for this amount of pieces it got (and the low price!) definitely a nice piece to have :)
THIS...is Doug DeMuro. If you know you know lol. Been a fan of his for years. Does the most in depth reviews of pretty much anything on 4 or even 6 wheels.
i really love the Speed Champions line of sets, and im also a fan of Doug Demuro so it was actually pretty awesome to see that you used his video as a reference xD. Loved the review, defo gonna pick this set up when i can! you should do more reviews of the Speed Champions sets!!
I have never bought a set from the Speed Champions theme, though I've repeatedly seen them on shelves for so many years now. That designer video made me really consider it, and I might get it if I have enough money to spare
I recently got into Speed Champions and am really looking forward to getting this set. Nice shout-out to Doug's channel too, I'm a big fan of both of your channels.
You're missing out! The 8 wide Speed Champs from the last few years have been really fun builds and nice display pieces. I personally recommend the Ferarri F8 and the Lamborghini 2 pack (if you can find it), but honestly pretty much all of them slap.
Got into speed champions cause the sets were just too cool. Plus like you said the designer looks like he genuinely enjoys it. Wish we could get someone that enthusiastic for the Star Wars designers
I’ve been begging you to do speed champions lol. As an older collector like yourself speed champions is a favorite of mine. I convince myself it’s for my son.
Wow, man. When Speed Champions started doing the 8 wide build with the Ferrari F8, I thought it'd be neat if they did the Countach, but thought it was unlikely since it was an old car and there are more modern slick cars. But to hear it was actually the most requested. Thanks, everyone. Thanks to you, we're getting a Countach.
I love this video (and the set itself) I really apprecieate the research before making and review. I love when youtubers do that because the review feels more complete and objective to me i guess. Anyway great video!
Love this set. I treated my boy to a speed champions set today. He initially wanted this then couldn't decide between this and the Nissan skyline. Glad I pursuaded him for this, its very much like the real thing in terms of looks and bits like the clear brick headlights take me back to sets from my childhood. A really iconic car that's captured well and fun to build
The Lamborghini Countach is what really inspired the modern design with sharp edges. Prior to that, Lamborghinis were more rounded like the Lamborghini Miura.
Lego should start dual molding windscreens and cockpit pieces more. If the top of the car was white plastic instead of the off color print it would be perfect.
I love the red interior, I bought one at Sam's club for $12. I bought all 4 cars they had on sale. Speed Champs are cool little kits. I've got more than a few lol. Nice review sir, thank you.👍🤙
I watched your review the other day and it totally made me want this model, then I realized it didn't come out till March 1st. Today I went to my local Walmart (which never has new sets let alone unreleased sets), and they had 1 set just sitting on the shelf!!! I grabbed it right away and this is now the first set I've had before official release and it's the first set I've purchased because of your review. I really like the set and for a small set it has some really awesome building techniques, and was really enjoyable to build. The only thing I didn't care for, and would have gladly paid more money to do without, were the stickers (15 in total). I think this set may have the most stickers of any set I've ever put together and that's saying something for a 262 piece model. Great review, I'd love to see more stuff like this, with smaller more affordable non-Star Wars sets. Great review, thanks for the suggestion.
For me, speed champions filled the void left by no more SW microfighters. Brickheadz never really grabbed me. I like have the little sets to change up a display area. Would love it if you added these sets to your reviews content. Thanks!
I’m the same way, don’t have any of the 8-stud wide Speed Champions sets. Wasn’t planning to buy any new sets unless a Mustang was coming out, but when I first saw images of this set I knew I’m picking this up when I see it.
I haven't bought a lego car in years. However, recently I've really gotten back into transformers, and now I need this set to display next to my Sideswipe and Sunstreaker!
I'm sure someone will come up with a mic they did for the other lambo I actually have it built with the flip up iconoc doors on my black lambo from last year
Ask M&R: After taking a look at the Lamborghini Countach, do you think LEGO should release a similar set once/twice a year for Star Wars? I’m talking about an 8-wide, $20 build of a Star Wars Speeder that would come with a minifig or two. I wouldn’t even care if the speeders were canonical, as long as they fit the aesthetic for Tatooine or Coruscant. That way we can still have an interesting build to populate Mocs, not get another Luke’s landspeeder, and finally release more versions of the Kubaz, Quarren, Gran, Devaronian, Ugnaught, Aqualish, Ithorians, Trandoshan, Rodian etc (all of these are existing lego molds but only tend to appear in LARGE and EXPENSIVE sets….).
He sure does wear a "Ferrari Jacket"! ;) Speed Champions is my favorite LEGO IP, so many part devellopement and intriguing building techniques with these designs. Especially with the 8 stud wide designs, that's when i started collecting them. Makes a nice display and gave me the opportunity to build a Ramp Truck and Trailer at that scale too.... so yep, great theme!
There is a alt build of the Porsche 911 sr that someone on rebrickable made this car in creator expert scale. Bricksie did build and review of the alt build of the 911 sr as this car.

I mean they do go vroom vroom
I'd like to see that every once and a while.

Technic looks really good and, the main focus other than the build are the functions.
@@chriskaufmann655 I think he talks about a stadium with a ton of cars or smth. That would be a great set
@@squiddysquidster802 yeah but we want a BIG lego car with this amount of detail.
soundwave
Speed Champions honestly got me back into LEGO more than anything. Last year's Ferrari was phenomenal
There wasn't a Ferrari last year
@@TheTrueYes he means the 2020 one
Honestly same. Got the Ferarri on sale and it's been downhill from there...I have 8 cars now and am looking forward to this wave lol
@@haydengoodwin2711 Yeah, but we have 2022 now
@@TheTrueYes I know but he was talking about the 2020 one

We just get fake LEGO Con enthusiasm
Lol it's over saturated that's why
Love that you referenced Doug DeMuro for this video! Cool to see LEGO listen to the fans on this one. Hopefully this sort of dynamic translates more often into Star Wars.
I feel like this could be one of the most popular Speed Champions sets. The Countach is an absolute icon.
oh deff. I might wanna go hunting for it. This, the jesko and the quattro are the best sets in the speed champ line in general
@@nobaski3284 not to argue or be mean, but in my opinion the Nissan GTR and Ford GT are the best.

this video really showed me the quirks and features of this set

I’ve avoided this line so far, but this one, I might need. Reminds me of one of my favorite Micro Machines from my childhood!
Be careful, once you get one you won’t be able to resist getting all of them! Lol
It's a pretty solid line up. I bought the red Ferrari and I really like the build.
You are missing out even the older sets are cool
@@chriskaufmann655 It's true. I got the 8-wide Ferrari, then ended up getting all the 8-wide ones lol.
Also GOATED LEGO designer right there.
definitely
"Ferrari Jacket" Its as if millions of voices suddenly cried out and were silenced.
I really hope when you kept calling it a Ferrari logo on the minifig was a joke
yeah lol, i was boutta comment about that
Love the design! OMG it really captured the beauty of the old Countach
Thank you Ryan for pointing out 'all of the quirks and features' of the 2022 Lamborghini Countach
I wish this set came with Jordan Belfort mini fig
I randomly bought this one a few days ago and I was really surprized at how fun it is to build for this amount of pieces it got (and the low price!) definitely a nice piece to have :)

I'm floored how accurate this model is.
lol, that's irony right?
Thanks for the Speed Champions review! More would be awesome! Showing the 6-stud wide next an 8-stud wide would be helpful to see the differences.
It's nice seeing a designer passionate about his build
I loved that designer interview and his excitement. This was my dream car when I was a kid and is a day one purchase. Jealous that you found it early.
Love this car honestly it’s one of the best so far and I love how much the designer really care
The rear lights are incredible, that’s the best use for those cone light pieces I’ve ever seen. Please make more speed champions videos Ryan!
It’s very refreshing to see someone so passionate about a model they created
I recently got into Speed Champions and am really looking forward to getting this set. Nice shout-out to Doug's channel too, I'm a big fan of both of your channels.
Doug is indeed the car guy 😂😂
You're missing out! The 8 wide Speed Champs from the last few years have been really fun builds and nice display pieces. I personally recommend the Ferarri F8 and the Lamborghini 2 pack (if you can find it), but honestly pretty much all of them slap.
The F8 is what sold me on the Speed Champions sets
@@Darjeeling__ yeah that exact set was my downfall as well.
Got into speed champions cause the sets were just too cool. Plus like you said the designer looks like he genuinely enjoys it. Wish we could get someone that enthusiastic for the Star Wars designers
I’ve been begging you to do speed champions lol. As an older collector like yourself speed champions is a favorite of mine. I convince myself it’s for my son.
The designer has an infectious enthusiasm. It's an awesome set and I for one cannot wait for it to be available!
I’ve been collecting Speed Champions since they started coming out, I think this is one of the best yet. They did a killer job
Wow, man.

Probably my favorite set from the 2022 Speed Champions line up. Can't wait to get one for my self! 🙂
I really hope that for next year they start making regular cars that you would see on the road and not just super cars!
I wish they would have 8 wide as normal and then have 10 wide being a new more expensive speed champion, maybe only 1 for each series
Love this set. I treated my boy to a speed champions set today. He initially wanted this then couldn't decide between this and the Nissan skyline. Glad I pursuaded him for this, its very much like the real thing in terms of looks and bits like the clear brick headlights take me back to sets from my childhood.

The Lamborghini Countach is what really inspired the modern design with sharp edges. Prior to that, Lamborghinis were more rounded like the Lamborghini Miura.
“THIS…is the Lamborghini countach and TODAY I will take you on a tour of it’s quirks and features…and then I will give it a Doug scrore.”
Nice to see a Doug Demuro cameo! He covers some interesting cars and is always fun to watch.
I’d love to have seen Ryan start the video with: “THIIIIIIIISSSSSSSS is a Lego Lamborghini Countach”
2:04 “Ferrari jacket” as he’s reviewing a Lamborghini 😂
I hope one day they make a Creator Expert/Icon bigger version of this. The scissor doors maybe difficult to achieve tho.
Lego should start dual molding windscreens and cockpit pieces more. If the top of the car was white plastic instead of the off color print it would be perfect.
"I should probably take myself out"
*Rips own head off*
Ryan you should get the larger Porsche model that you can turn into a Countache with no additional pieces required.
While on this set I mastered placing Lego stickers I loved building it
I love the red interior, I bought one at Sam's club for $12. I bought all 4 cars they had on sale. Speed Champs are cool little kits. I've got more than a few lol. Nice review sir, thank you.👍🤙

When Ryan said the minifigure had a Ferrari jacket had me going REEEEEE for a minute there😂😂
Very unique set Ryan, a Lamborghini Countach with a driver sporting ferrari, pretty neat
The countach is my favourite speed champions set. Im so happy to get one!
I fixed mine so I can pose it with lambo scissor doors. Pretty cool lego set and what an amazing design.
This is one series where I have back collected and now own every single speed champion set with the exception of that team Indy car
Could this be the first Leonardo decabrio Minifigure, because of the car being in Wolf of wallstreet😂
I think you deserve more subscribers you deserve over 1 million
I’m the same way, don’t have any of the 8-stud wide Speed Champions sets. Wasn’t planning to buy any new sets unless a Mustang was coming out, but when I first saw images of this set I knew I’m picking this up when I see it.
Yes do more of these please!!! And you should do the 3 in 1 motorcycle from the technic line!!!
FINALLY found one, had to come watch again
Speed champions is the reason I got back into lego. Wish I could buy the old
Retired sets for retail
I haven't bought a lego car in years. However, recently I've really gotten back into transformers, and now I need this set to display next to my Sideswipe and Sunstreaker!
Big Ups Doug DeMuro !
Ryan can you review more speed champions sets? i would love to see it because speed champions is one of my favourite lego themes
2:06 ferrari jacket!!!!😂😂😂😂😂what
this is my favorite lego set of all time, IMO is the goat of the 20-25 dollar price range
The doors or lack thereof makes me sad, that’s iconic Lambo
I'm sure someone will come up with a mic they did for the other lambo I actually have it built with the flip up iconoc doors on my black lambo from last year
definitely need this - building the green lotus now
Wolf of Wall Street is the reason I got this.
Same 😂

The face bleed through on the back is actually neck stubble. As an Italian, this is culturally accurate. :P
A Countach? The front looks more like an EB 110 🤔
Ryan if you haven’t already picked up the technic ford raptor you need to. It’s such a clean build process.
I find it funny that on the back of the box they show the triple white Countach when the set is a white on red one…but over all a great set
That was my favorite car when I was a kid I had a trapper keeper with one on it. Its perfect down to the red Imterior.
All that is needed is a Lego Jordan belfort
the jacket part was the best
I've never bought any speed champions sets, but this... I'm definitely getting this.
MandR fig looked pretty good in that Lamborghini...
A 10/10 from MandR? No complaints? I must be hallucinating.
Lmao I just noticed for the review MandR put his mini fig avatar in the drivers seat of the car
He sure does wear a "Ferrari Jacket"! ;)

I've bought a couple Speed Champions sets for my Iron Man hall of armor/garage moc, and they kind of steal the show with how good they look
Wait Ferrari jacket is there a secret second set in this I didn’t know about??!!!!!??!!!😂😂
The designers for this theme actually seem to care about the fans. If only Star Wars had that…
This reminds of Cars from the old SNES game Top Gear, I like it
I’m gonna start collecting and building these !

Ah yes, man’s subject
I love the new wheel molds. Thinner tires and better options for rims is great for supercars.
Yoooo cool set, really hyped to see the James Bond set that I recall is supposed to be under speed champions too
There is a alt build of the Porsche 911 sr that someone on rebrickable made this car in creator expert scale. Bricksie did build and review of the alt build of the 911 sr as this car.
