I want to build some of the newer Lego Technic Super Cars because they look so good. However, the last Technic set I built was in 2014 the 42022 Hot Rod, fun fact it was the first Lego set of any theme that used the Lego builder app which makes it much easier for me.
So I figured after 10 years I would give Technic another try but didn’t want to start off with such a challenging set like the Peugeot that I have in my backlog now, so I went with the Bugatti Bolide in LE Agile Blue. It took me about 3 times the amount of time to build compared to the similarly sized McLaren MP4 that I had just built prior. Even when focusing and following the instructions closely I made several mistakes some using the wrong but similar element and some with pin placement, there is definitely a huge learning curve with Technic for me, hopefully I get better.
The end product looks and feels flimsy and unfinished and you can’t see the motor which is actually quite good. Stickers are plentiful but enhance the model. Not sure if this color with limited availability will do well post retirement as the set is exactly the same as the yellow version that can be had for 50% off.
Build: 5
Play: 7
Display: 5
Value: 6
Not sure if I will go on a Technic binge next or back to system.
