LEGO Technic 42202 Ducati Panigale V4 S Motorcycle – More of the same? [Review]

Way back in 2020, LEGO produced 42107 Technic Ducati Panigale V4 R. At the time it was special because it was the first Technic motorcycle with a gearbox. Four years later, we’re being treated with LEGO Technic 42202 Ducati Panigale V4 S Motorcycle, the latest superbike in the Ducati line. At first glance, apart from the body and color, it seems like it will be pretty similar to the other large-scale Technic motorcycles. Join us as we take a closer look. The 1,603-piece Panigale V4 S is currently available as a pre-order to LEGO Insiders, and will be more widely available starting January 1st for US $199.99 | CAN $259.99 | UK £169.99.

LEGO shows off a real Ducati Panigale V4 R motorcycle with Technic exterior [News]

LEGO has unveiled a brief video and photos of a real Ducati Panigale V4 R motorcycle with a Technic exterior. The hybrid model is meant to celebrate the European launch of the 42107 Technic Ducati Panigale V4 R. The motorcycle’s exterior was created by LEGO Certified Professional Riccardo Zangelmi, who had never built with Technic elements professionally before this project. The final model weighs 400 pounds (180 kg) including the motorcycle innards, is composed of 15,000 bricks, and took 400 hours to build. Unlike other life-size models, this LEGO Ducati exterior has no glue and was created by hand and not using 3D modeling software.

42107 Technic Ducati Panigale V4 R currently retails for 54.99 GBP and will sell for $69.99 USD | 99.99 CAD when it launches in the Americas on August 1st. (Editor’s note: The press release below states that the set will cost $59.99 USD but we have independently verified with LEGO that the price will actually be $69.99 USD which is consistent with the price displayed on the LEGO Store Online.)
