They need to get some ferrari's in there. I'm pretty sure bugatti, lambo and porsche are all owned by VW.

Considering they have Blue, Orange, Green.  Red seems like the ideal color next.  And what other vehicle do you know of that is primarily Red.  Given the current super cars, Ferrari seems like the next ideal build.

Available to order, limit 3 surprisingly enough...

Yeah...with the Mexico factory going online soon I'm not sure I'm feeling this one for a quick flip.

I think the box is my favorite part of this set. Not enough to buy one.  Lego really been mixing it up lately with boxes.   It's also Already on backorder

There are some thirsty people for this set to have it already on Backorder. Was the Porsche and Bugatti release just as quickly on backorder?

Yeah I was clearly wrong. Shoulda bought it.

Ferrari tax would make it a nice $500 for a car of the same size. But yes, I am with you, I am longing for some of the old Technic RACER Ferrari's Lego used to make, but at this scale.

I was just expecting it to still be around this morning on the east coast. Going to be interesting to see how far the date gets pushed past July 2nd. The Monkey Kid mech is already at 60 days.

over 21 sold on Ebay ranging from about $500 (when factor in over priced shipping) to $700 😲

and 69 currently selling (in US).

 

got it today! I'm a total box geek so... WOW!! if I hadn't sold it already I would be happy to have it on my shelf. also bravo to LEGO for the additional barrier in the shipping box. the typical plain shipping box was squashed and I was worried... the hot rod squashed... but this custom shipper box was good to go! whew....

compared to LEGO Product videos - this is totally another level

Lego did step up their game on this one there are QR code’s in the instructions that have related content videos that go along with the build. You can find them here, also there is an owners section where you enter the unique VIN of your set for more exclusive content.

The more "exclusive content" is according to brickset just some cheep wallpapers and not even hi-res to today's standards

I was just thinking that green boxart with Lambo logo would make a cool looking gift card / VIP card

Pssshh, Listen here. You didn't fork over $800 USD for this Lamborghini set. You don't get a "special card" and should accept the poor resolution promotional images as your reward. The "Black Card" is only for esteemed connoisseurs of Lego. You, petty peasant, are not worthy. Do not pass go, go straight to jail, so you get NOTHING! YOU LOSE! GOOD DAY SIR!

Lego fans and their "demands"...

The first thing that comes to MY mind when thinking about a Lamborghini is this very decent little music video by the best German-singing band of the last decade(s) (albeit from Austria). Featuring a Lambo in TLG's trademark color.

Terrible colour variation on green pieces

So disappointed. We have the Porsche and the Bugatti and were looking forward to the Lamborghini. Do not buy this until they rectify the issues with the green pieces. They are all different shades and the result ruins the car. They have refused to exchange the bricks, blaming a process change. But the car doesn’t look like the pictures, not a uniform colour.

 

 

 

Was the new batch a bust? The images that were posted show VERY bad color variations in the green. It's bad. There are also reports of instructions being wrong at some points, missing parts, poorly constructed manuals.

 

These are all rolling in over today and yesterday.

Would LEGO really deny requests for replacement bricks?

Doesn't sound like the customer service I know.

I noticed that when watching some reviews with my boys...there was some obvious differences in some of the pieces.

Even if LEGO did replace those pieces....I'm not sure it's going to resolve the problem.

Wow, that's really unfortunate.  It's painfully obvious in about every picture posted in the reviews that the green on a couple of the parts is lighter in color.  I will definitely hold off(not that I have a choice atm) and see if some quality control fixes the issues with the color as well as the poor instruction manual.  

Was speaking with a Lego manager today and mentioned this.  For what its worth, she said the color issue was from the first batch made.  What is currently coming out should be fine.

Because? Sounds like nothing but delay tactic.

Can someone confirm the weight of sealed Lambo set. Just bought one and mine says 6.10kgs and BL weight says over 1kg more! Am I screwed or maybe BL weight include brown transport box?
