I'm sure you heard about the LEGO theme Speed Champions, but do you really know it? Did you realize that it was completely overhauled in the past 3 years and it's no longer a collection of branded vehicle playsets, but it became much much more? Let me show you 5 reasons why I think this is the best automotive LEGO theme nowadays!

I've said it before. Protect the speed champions series at all costs!

[@annabellethedoll3764]

I can’t agree more!

[@xrexkinect]

They sell really well. I dont see them being discontinued any time soon

[@JSTRonline2]

Keep buying them. I'm going to pick up the Countach, DB5, Charger, and probably the Ferrari 512 M.

[@ECODKyleskymast]

@@JSTRonline2 I'm going to get the 2 movie cars when they release.

[@ano_nym]

Actually got a bit interested in buying the quattro. Was years since I last bought a Lego set.

[@MichaelMakesMistakes]

It's easily my favorite theme across all of Lego since they took it to 8 wide. Since you mentioned how fun they are to build, I'm a massive fan of the Swedish flag easter egg in the Koenigsegg. I'm already looking forward to the 2023 release.

[@demanrunner8479]

The first leak is a Ferrari, and they have fixed the wheel covers, making them more flat to add more detail as an experiment, which looks really nice

[@Mike-ye6xi]

250th 👍 🛡 🛡

[@gieselats]

I totally agree. Hopefully lego will bring out a porsche 911 in 8wide. Then a comparison with the 6wide would be nice. We need a new Porsche. 911 is so iconic.

[@banquetoftheleviathan1404]

I got one for my dad and now i have to wait ti christmas to give it too him oooh the anticipation

[@rogerc6533]

Id buy it in a heartbeat! No questions asked.

[@seanbarron5231]

Yeah… but the 6 wide was easiest one of the best “to scale” builds.

[@peterquant1883]

Agree with all points! Would add: I wish LEGO would introduce a greater variety of windscreen pieces, plus I wish LEGO would start a whole new line of non-speedracer regular cars that we all use(d) and see/saw on the road over the past decades. I really like that about the Nissan and the Audi: they look like vehicles you can recognise from real life.

[@annabellethedoll3764]

Would be cool to have a Lego speed champion car set that looks like your own car…

[@DimaLegoFUN]

@@annabellethedoll3764 we nned also different wheel sizes, also wider, maybe another type of arches they are taking to many space now, and probably have plates with pins on both sides and more tiles like all plates which exist have to have tile version...

[@OrviC]

it would be very cool to have a speed champions mercedes

[@arcaderunner2188]

I'd like to see regular cars too, but it is called SPEED champions.

[@ano_nym]

I'm not sure that the Audi, the Rally B quattro, is something you would see on the road.

[@thomaswalker9277]

It was the Speed Champions line that go me back into building Lego. As a gearhead, I've loved cars since I was a kid. And the SC line up was a dream come true. I still get excited every year when the new line up is going to be leaked or revealed by Lego.

[@nolanman7077]

I definitely agree. I would like to see more of the humble 90s-2000s JDM/Euro cars because there is a lot of modern super car happening, but I am very happy so far.

[@12171010011010]

Been saying this for the longest time. No system set comes with such variety in building techniques, design, and small details for its size like the Speed Champions sets. It makes them worth buying despite being more expensive than a lot of other system sets. In a time where most Lego themes either have a boring restrictive license, or are becoming less imaginative and more formulaic, Speed Champions sets are on a whole other level. We never see that same effort used to replicate angels, intakes and general shapes like we do in Star Wars or Ninjago sets, despite those themes being considerably popular. Technic (with system pieces) and Creator come close at times, but aren't consistently as detailed relative to their size. For display purposes they are also ideal. Maybe one day we will get Speed Champions level detail in other modern sets, but something tells me that the reason Lego can afford to make these sets so detailed is because of their small size and licensing.

[@coffeeinhandproductions3238]

Five arguably really good reasons why Speed Champions has also become my most anticipated/favorite theme of each year. 8 wide for me is also the best reason as the theme no longer looks like they belong in a city layout but an actual display shelf. I also like how 8 wide is expanding into other themes such as the pretty excellent Batmobile, and Tumbler from fall last year. Can't wait to see the rumored F&F Charger, and 007 BD5 later this year.

[@SaperPl1]

I wish we had Speed Champions X Technic (transporter-sized) series from Lego. Getting more panels, suspension components to match this size would be awesome as well as having models in the same scale instead of each one requiring different space.

[@stego-]

maybe it could be a good way to introduce smaller pieces such as smaller suspension, and overall more compact components.

[@catmatiskam7092]

Exactly!!!

[@GubstersGarage]

The Speed Champions cars dont have suspensions so perhaps we dont need one for the car transporter. Maybe just do something like what was done with the Ford pickup truck 😉

[@12171010011010]

@@GubstersGarage One set that I am aware of actually did give Speed Champion's cars suspension, and Lego used to have a system piece with inbuilt springs that I don't see any issue with replicating for today.

[@12171010011010]

I think it would be ideal if Lego made a vehicles with a sturdy but light and hollow Technic structure and foundation, with minimal functions, and a mostly system shell for the external details. To me, that is the only feasible way I can see Lego actually making large scale Technic display vehicles better. Then, they can allocate all the Technic functionality and playability to just purely Technic (and maybe more affordable Mindstorms?) sets. One sub-theme for form, one for function.

[@brxlz_builds_canada]

It's Legos best theme for all the reason you mentioned. Speed Champions is what drew me back into Lego. I love every single 8 stub car and the Dragster is one of my favorites. I just ordered the whole 2022 set just waiting for it to arrive

[@PotPynamite]

I've always collected some of the Speed Champions sets. Back when they were 6-wide I'd only get ones that I really really liked, like the Ford Fiesta rally car. But since they went to 8-wide I've gotten every kit, the building experience is nearly unparalleled and the added width really makes them feel more substantial.

[@ryanlloyd1329]

I own at least 50% of the 8 stud speed champ models and they genuinely are amazing to build and display, a real rewarding experience for sure

[@grindingbricks]

Would have to agree with the 5 points you mentionned. There's great value throughout these sets, either be the quality of parts used, design, building experience and to top it off, they make great display pieces. All we need now is a greater variety of tire sizes and windscreen to make these models even better.

[@gamesetlive]

As a former LEGO Star Wars, I have fall headfirst and headstrong into LEGO Speed Champions! I cannot wait to purchase more in the years to come as they perfect their building techniques even further.

[@SAVINGEZRA]

I use to be a diehard LEGO Architecture Series fan but those have slowed down over the years. I got my first Speed Champions set last year and I immediately fell in love. Mainly because of the fact that you truly get your bang for your Buck. I’m totally okay with the amount of stickers as long as it keeps the price down, which it is and I’m sure is the reason they aren’t printed elements.

[@billynomates920]

i don't agree but i'm linking your video to my nephew because he definitely will. he absolutely loves speed champions!

[@alperenerol1852]

Lego should give this guy commission. If it wasn't for this channel, I wouldn't have built 8 cars already

[@Andrew9565-AD]

Why do you like speed Champions? Me: yes

[@andyyang5234]

Bought for the looks, stayed for the building experience. Honestly. There is no way people will ever understand the joy of building a Speed Champion just by looking at the collection of cars. They're worth every penny (and they don't cost much of a penny to begin with) just for the building experience alone, and having a really nice little model at the end is just extra. My most memorable Speed Champion building experience thus far remains that upside down windshield in the Senna, which still makes me go WTF whenever I look at it.

[@microcar14]

My issue with variety is Nissan GTR and Toyota Supra are the only Japanese cars in speed champions. While people like super cars, they are missing out on the JDM enthusiast market. Licensing is the hard obstacle here, just go ask any racing game developer. But with the Civic Type R, GR86, GR Yaris, LEGO has plenty of modern options, let alone the 90s classics.

[@justincole1510]

I agree with you on this, LEGO should make more JDM cars for Speed Champions, and for their first time with both Nissan and Toyota, the cars they pick aren’t good picks, the R35 GTR looks fine, I think LEGO should of make it look like a regular road legal car and not a race car, but for the Supra, they should of gone with the Mk 4 than the Mk 5, a lot of people love the Mk 4 because of its popularity with the people, but also ties in with Paul Walker and Fast and Furious, if I think it was, but for the ones you mention, I will be fine, the GR86 looks sick, it actually looks like it’s predecessor but modern, and I like that more that the GR Supra

[@sidewinded1]

@@justincole1510 the cars are great picks, they are icons of brands. A much wider audience enjoys the classics like countaches or supercars like the valkyrie, less people are jdm fans. they try to appeal to more people. and yes more jdm would be cool but saying the current picks are bad is just bs

[@justincole1510]

Sorry, my bad. These two JDM cars are great picks, but I just don’t like they were design or in my livery that have on. I’m fine with any cars that I like. But if the LEGO model doesn’t look like the actual car irl. Then idk why the design sr did that. The Supra wasn’t my only least favorite set from 2021. The Chevy 2-pack with the Corvettes. The designer didn’t get the looks of both the C3 and C8.R Corvettes. I’ll like them to be much better looking, but where’s the resolve from it.

[@SenorStigo]

This series is the reason I started buying Legos. I wanted to get a model of a Formula 1 car but most small models are quite expensive, then the Mercedes Lego set came out with the W12. I bought that one, and before I knew it I ended up building 12 in total so far (2 of them six studs), and will get 5 more in the next few months. I feel like having so much variety can help the series as some people might buy one of his favorite cars, and end up buying more because of how creative the builds are.

[@ahchiu9]

I started building all of the Speed Champions sets because I thought the cars looked cool. I continue to get all of the new sets just to experience all of the innovative build techniques (it certainly helps that the cars look even cooler now).

[@wai0937]

Love this video. Perfectly articulates my appreciation for this line. I look forward to their licensed IP vehicles getting the same treatment. Hoping the Bond/Fast Furious rumours are true.

[@saltyhose8257]

I kinda wish Lego would rerelease some cars from the 6 stud era into the 8 stud, imagine the ford gt or the F40 in 8 studs configuration, i wonder why Lego don't want to do speed champs with 8 studs wide in the first place

[@natbarmore]

Absolutely agree about the building experience and building techniques! I’m no gearhead-heck, I’m kinda anti-car, and if I could live my life without a car, I would-and I’m not into racing (car or otherwise), but I nonetheless have about half the Speed Champions sets, just for the build experience. They’re so much fun, and I usually learn a new shaping technique or two and sometimes discover a new connection I had no idea about.

I agree with what was said in the video. I should add that these sets have very cool parts inside, and have a huge potential for alternative models. (I built a sportcar (a bit like a mustang) from supra and a hot rod from elva)

[@MikeOxlong948]

I’m with you in the fact that I love the whole collection, the last 3 years especially, all look fantastic when displayed and I completely agree they just need to sort the wheel sizing out to match what they are replicating, just a shame we have to wait another year for the next lot! I’ve bought a second set of the Mercedes just so I can build one more and have Hamiltons car as well as bottas’. Great videos by the way keep them coming.

[@dtaylorondabeat]

These 8 wide cars resold me on Lego, the amount of detail in each car is crazy, right now I have the jesko and the diablo, and tbh, they’re some of the best sets and use some GREAT building techniques to create the cars curvature, lego definitely has a place in this gear heads heart and I’m excited for what’s next

[@GubstersGarage]

Speed Champions is also my favorite theme of all! I have been collecting them and only missing the Ferrari Scuderia set coz it’s too expensive now. Someday I’ll unbox them all once I have the proper space for a Speed Champions race track diorama.

[@MforMovesets]

I dont care about cars but love the sets. Effordable, fun to build (much interior detail you don't see at the end), look great especially the 3:38 one, nice present for kids too. Downsides: I hate that the Lambo is white and never looks clean, especially since you put stickers on it and get your fingerprints everywhere, and it gets repetative to build several of them.

[@megs8654]

speed champions are what bring me back to lego after "some" years. so far have countach and evija, and damn, they were fun to build and are looking awesome.

[@SilverSpoonRiche]

Yeah i thought I was done with Legos but these things are so highly detailed and innovative in how the parts go together that it's got me diving into my old boxes of Lego to see what I have. My goal is to one day build from scratch, hunting down each piece one at a time, for one or two of these cars using just the instructions. Once more into the bricks, dear friends! Once More!

[@EduardoWeidmanBarijan]

While I don't like stickers at all (old school LEGO fan here), I do like the cars. I saw a couple sets here in Brazil and they were not that expensive and thanks for showing some tricks they used to build them and some of the unique pieces

[@CIARUNSITE]

Stickers are awful but they are a necessary evil to have this wide variety of cars for the price. I haven't bought the 2023 models yet, but I hope the higher price maybe gets them to print a few more. Based on the R34 GTR though that's not happening.

[@Devilke]

Ever since the 8 stud wide I bought every single one. They are the perfect size for a big collection. I hope they remake some of the older models and some pick-up trucks. I can’t get my hands on the 2022 Mercedes set in Belgium. My favorite is the Jesko 😍

[@bricksterquickster5502]

As long can I remember the biggest gearhead I've really known so well in person is me! this is easily my all time favourite LEGO theme because I finally feel I can make lego cars properly myself without messing up almost all the time (trial and error probably) and watching tutorials and became the tutorial guy myself (I still watch tutorial vids because they also have more better techiques than before) and it really just unleashed full potential for right now what lego cars would look like if we made few more bracket variants after another and some techniques that were never thinked of before (I still keep older LEGO cars for nostalgic purposes) the 8 stud wideness is really the sweet spot for Speed Champions for sure and another thing I noticed is that the newer sets feel really more different compared to the older ones because the older ones were bit off more telling about racing and motorsport and newer is more focused in the car itself.

[@alfonshasel1995]

I love them for my daughter to set off all the disney princess playbooks. And even though they are intended for for a higher age, they manual is way better than the playbooks, and thus easier to build.

[@shinobi7742]

I agree with you. The speed champions design and look are the best. Creator expert has a huge chance to become the best as they combine the best of bricks, like speed champions, and technic. If you can happily marry the looks of Creator Expert with Technic engine/gears and other mechanical features I think will be the perfect car models. Also maybe it can help reduce the price of the sets as well as reducing the size. Those technic cars are just way too big and way too expensive. Enjoyed this video topic! Great job sir!

[@mbphilipblack8993]

My collections coming along as I tend to get the Solo packs first but need to make sure I get some Double packs too. I also need to make a MOC garage/Showroom of sorts to really showcase my collection the change to 8 Stud wide was a needed and indisputable decision it greatly benefits the level of detail and accuracy achieved the angles and shapes of the cars are far greater than there 6 stud counterparts I hope for an anniversary we get remakes of the original waves. The Building experience and overall techniques used in the theme keep getting better and better so clever and satisfying to put together and for the price so much value for money pretty much unmatched with a licensed theme. Stickers and prints will always be a bane to the experience/theme as a whole if made into prints would boost prices greatly and remove the option to put them on or not and if you take your time and apply them with care then I assure you they look spectacular and elevate the level of accuracy. I'm longing for a Sian, Ford GT 1976 Mustang, BMW i8, DS Automobile and maybe a Fast and Furious sub line/crossover just a thought and a F1, Rally car/Off-Road even Dragsters theme, so much potential and one of my favorite LEGO themes.

I got into this theme about 2 months ago and I LOVE them. Have got a ton of the 2021 and 2022 sets and has been enjoyable all around. I wish that there were more sets, but I understand that designing these can take longer than 1/64 models. Big recommend and great video.

[@pwcorgi2000]

I want Lego to make regular everyday cars & pick-up trucks, or maybe classics, like a Chevy Bel Aire, or Nova Station Wagon.

[@generaliserad]

The only complete to-date-series i have, and the only I've sought aftermarket above sticker. Definitely a bump up in cleverness. What brought me into Lego was Architecture, which is fairly dead now, but where the size constraints intrigued me in the cities skylines. Similar constraint here, but a lot more innovation. Keep it alive Lego, and revive the Architecture skylines series. We have hundreds of interesting cities to stylize.

[@brickphisto2321]

Another good video. I agree on every single point and argument except one: For me nothing beats the building techniques used in almost each Creator Expert vehicle - at least nothing in the Lego world. I recently built the SC Countach e.g. and while the techniques to get the rear shape right are great the sturdiness is not. Each of these four angled pieces is not secured as you would expect from an official model. The tricky part is always to secure such angled submodels at two points like the Mustang and Porsche windscreen e.g. which is not possible at SC scale. And while some CE models' proportions are more or less off (like 10262 and 10295) they are all a joy to build. You can even forgive 10262 its ugly look if you appreciate all those clever functions included. I wish there were more system brick scale models with a technic core.

Ford Fiesta M-Sport WRC 75885 was the best! Loved it, and still loving it! So many stickers but was fun to build!

As a huge fan of Technic sets I was very surprised I had to admit to myself, that I had even MORE fun building these small(ish) cars. Exactly as you said - the building experience is far better. The level of details and clever techniques are very enjoyable. And then there is a price. For the same amount of money you can have far more enjoyment than with Technic set. I started with SC only after 8studs switch, so I consider myself "spoiled". The only downside is that my children (3.5 son and 7.5 daughter) want to build these themselves, so no physical joy for me :))) But they still are more then worth the money (and, ehm, shelf space).

I don't know if you knew, but the SC valkyrie is supposed to be the newer concept but with the livery of the older one. If you go onto rebrickable, Nard Verbong made a valkyrie that is based off the older concept
