Lego Speed Champions Mercedes-AMG G 63 Fix and Improvements

One of the biggest and most complex Speed Champions ever, this was a fun building experience BUT after building the model based on the LEGO instructions I like to compare the model with images and specifications of the real car to see how accurate the design is.
While I think the Lego designers have done an amazing job, lots of nice techniques and design solutions there are some aspects which i think need to be improved.
First off this is a much larger build than the rest of the June wave of Speed Champions somewhere between 1:25th scale and 1:27th where the other Mercedes in the pack was closer to 1:29th scale.
Things i thought needed improvement; the bonnet, ground clearance, the height of the car, the tyres sticking out and lastly the rear window.
Hope you like the changes I have made and let me know if you can see any other improvements to make.
Enjoy

Like the changes, but would also like to see more of the process of building the updated version. Like what parts where used step by step. Maybe like an proper instruction.

[@speedybrick]

Thanks, yeah I know but I just didn’t have time this week. Ideally I would redo the whole build to make it stronger and fix the gaps in the wheel arches, and the back window.

[@onecleverpig]

Great changes! I think your modifications make it look much better! Especially the hood

[@speedybrick]

Thanks, still needs more development and once I get something suitable I will can the back window

[@dylannz0321]

I think i like the way it looks now, i was blown away when they leaked the set lol

[@speedybrick]

Yes great set, bit too big compared to the rest of the speed champions though

[@dylannz0321]

@@speedybrick understandable i won't complain

[@magharibo]

I could not believe how lego messed up this boxy car... this should have been an easy job The whole construction needs improvement to get the right proportions.

[@speedybrick]

Indeed, Sometimes the speed champions team try to make it more complex than necessary. I would like to have all the cars in roughly the same scale especially when you have quite different cars like this one otherwise it just looks wrong compared to the others.

[@darthprime4916]

I was blown away by this 2pack. It felt like speed champions really stepped up. Some really Fun build. With that being said, I’m not really a Mercedes’ fan and the fenders of the truck felt very amateurish to me.

[@speedybrick]

Yes it’s quite a step up compared to the other June releases.

[@dapperdanny2957]

I was wishing you would do something like this!! 👍💯🔥

[@speedybrick]

Thanks appreciate your support

[@X-DR1FT3R-X]

Thank you! I was waiting for this!

[@johnvaassen7725]

Your welcome 😉

[@speedybrick]

Be interesting to see what comes out next, will they make a speed champions Land Rover as well that would be nice

[@X-DR1FT3R-X]

@speedybrick Actually it would be nice! A new and old Defender 🔥

[@speedybrick]

@@X-DR1FT3R-Xfingers crossed

[@kanenstuff]

Looks good to me but think I will leave mine how it is

[@speedybrick]

Thanks, good choice the Lego designers did a great job, lots of nice techniques used.

[@vetteltuna1716]

Do you think black was the right colour? I think a white with black highlights would've made it better, great foxes thought bravo 👏

[@speedybrick]

Not sure, most of the G wagons I see are black. Thanks

[@michaelholderness7578]

I would have love to see a vibrant blue G Wagon.

[@iiKolin]

Honestly a mod that would make the car smaller would solve it all the whole car is like 3x over sized

[@speedybrick]

Basically a complete rebuild, you’re probably right.

[@user-iv1hz4ro3b]

Will you do a tutorial?

[@speedybrick]

Sorry I havent had time yet. I will try and go back to this one and make it stronger. I will try and do a rebuild video of the end result. if i have enough time i will also make digital instructions

[@user-iv1hz4ro3b]

@@speedybrick OK cool. I cant wait to do this mod!

[@BlitzkriegGT]

good try but you need to go out of comfort zone y mod the audi and the ferrari and now are less front and in the doors more short keep the colors and design

[@speedybrick]

Thanks, I couldn’t find the actual dimensions of the Audi as it’s different from the standard S1, so left it as it is. Which Ferrari do you mean?
