LEGO Technic Airbus H175 Rescue Helicopter Set

It’s a fact, LEGO Technics are out of the ordinary. Indeed, they are abandoning traditional bricks for, well, LEGO Technic pieces. So (and given their construction), these sets offer LEGO builders an insight into engineering.

The LEGO Technic Airbus H175 Rescue Helicopter is no exception. Made up of 2001 pieces, it offers LEGO builders aged 11 an extremely immersive building experience.

Plus, this LEGO-reimagined rescue helicopter comes with an electric motor, allowing you to bring the moving functions to life and see how it works. Isn’t that cool? Powered features include a rotating rotor, engine and retractable landing gear.

The finished model measures over 24cm high, 72cm long and 13cm wide. It is sure to make a great display item.

This LEGO set is available for €209.99.

Over the years, LEGO has introduced a multitude of Porsche-inspired replicas, such as the Porsche 911 LEGO Icons. However, this latest kit, which is one of the best classic LEGO cars, was designed for adults. What about the children then?

Do not look any further. Young Porsche fans, and yes, even child-at-heart adults, will love this set. You only need to be 10 years and older to get behind the wheel of this 1580 piece Porsche racer.

Packed with authentic elements, this set is extremely detailed. The LEGO-reimagined six-cylinder boxer engine features moving pistons, the suspension layout is independent, and there is a working differential. The huge swan-neck rear wing is also present.

The cabin is also intricately detailed, with several features true to the original model. It’s even equipped with a fire suppression system (non-functional, of course). The finished model will look spectacular when displayed. There is no doubt about it. It measures over 13cm high, 50cm long and 20cm wide.

This LEGO Technic set is available for €199.99.

LEGO Technic John Deere 948L-II Skidder Set

Although LEGO recently introduced a brand new John Deere inspired kit for kids, the LEGO Technic John Deere 948L-II Skidder is arguably the best. For what? Well, it boasts of almost 1000 more pieces than the old one.

But back to the LEGO replica of the John Deere 948L-II skidder. Made up of 1492 pieces and featuring a multitude of interesting features, it promises a fun building and playing experience.

This LEGO Technic set, aimed at ages 11 and up, is equipped with several pneumatic functions, showing kids how a skidder works. For example, you can operate the claw. There are also mechanical functions, such as steering, a movable engine and all-wheel drive.

The finished model measures over 8″ (21cm) high, 21″ (53cm) long and 7″ (19cm) wide. Thanks to its size and its typical green and yellow color scheme, it will bring a touch of color to the children’s room.

Bugatti has built some of the most exquisite hypercars ever seen on the road. This Bolide is no exception.

However, if you missed the chance to secure a copy of the real-life model (only 40 were made, each priced at a whopping $4.3 million), why not go for the LEGO replica?

Dressed in yellow and black, the Bugatti Bolide reimagined in LEGO is striking. Comprising 905 pieces, the completed build measures over 8cm high, 31cm long and 13cm wide. It will be an excellent display piece.

Of course, as this is a LEGO Technic model, there’s a lot more to it. Designed for children aged 9 and up, this kit features a W16 engine recreated in LEGO and steering. Gullwing doors are also present.

This set is available for €49.99.

Although it doesn’t include as many pieces (252, if you were wondering) as the other LEGO Technic kits on this list, this LEGO Technic set will provide kids ages 7 and up with an enjoyable building experience and, most importantly, an exciting gaming experience.

In addition to all the realistic design elements, such as its livery and off-road tires, this kit has one cool feature up its sleeve. It is equipped with a retro-friction function. Very cool.

The LEGO replica of NEOM McLaren’s all-electric dune car measures over 8cm high, 18cm long and 10cm wide. It will look great next to your other LEGO cars.

This set is available for €26.99.
