But seriously, why else would they give you a copy of the owner’s manual with your new car? I guess Stas Revin has carefully studied his copy of the book, as his latest Ford Bronco R is an outstanding LEGO Technic replica of the future Ford truck. Copying the style and livery of the smaller System build from LEGO Speed Champions 76905 Ford GT Heritage Edition and Bronco R, this beast looks a bit insidious. Only after a closer look did I figure out the actual size and scale of this Technic model. With a scale of 1:10, it is powered with four Control+ motors, which is a lot for this model.
If you liked the body and the exterior, you would surely fall in love with the chassis. Powered by four independent countors of tubes, this Bronco can adapt its suspension however you like. It’s a shame Stass opted for third-party tires, but, you know, they say that the tires are 50% of the car’s look. So…
The colours make the body look improvised; and that may be intentional?! The chassis could do with something more streamlined, more… aggressive? And less bulky.
Of course, putting all those parts together to make something like this requires knowledge and experience; do I have those?
This is based on the actual 2020 Ford Bronco R, which raced the Baja 1000. That race truck had a stock engine and chassis, modified with all the roll cage tubing, suspension upgrades, and bodywork in this black/red/gray livery.
This Lego version is awesome!
