Description

A race car built for the dream world

LEGO® DREAMZzz follows a group of kids and their dream companions as they navigate a shifting dream and nightmare world, and Mateo is one of the series' core characters. Z-Blob, his companion, can change shape, and this set gives the pairing an action vehicle built for chases rather than quiet scenes. With 485 pieces going into the model, there is enough structure for a proper chassis, cockpit and body detailing, while three included minifigures mean the car does not stand empty once the build is finished.

485 pieces, 149 of them unique

Out of the 485 pieces in the box, 149 are unique elements, a fairly high ratio that suggests plenty of variety in shape and colour rather than long runs of identical bricks. That mix tends to make for a more varied build session, since chassis, body panels, and character-specific details each draw on a different part of the parts list. The full breakdown of all 149 elements is listed on this page, so you can see exactly what is included before you build or buy.

A grey-and-blue body with a splash of trans-green

Dark bluish grey and light bluish grey form the practical, mechanical base of the car – wheels, chassis and structural panels – while blue is layered on for the bodywork itself. The standout colour, though, is trans-bright green, used sparingly to suggest Z-Blob's own glowing, shape-shifting material rather than a standard vehicle part. That contrast between a grounded grey-and-blue vehicle and a bright, almost otherworldly green accent captures the set's balance between an everyday race car and a fantasy dream-world machine.

Room for three-character play

With three minifigures included, this is one of the more populated vehicles in the DREAMZzz range, giving builders room to stage chases, rescues or races straight after finishing the model. Mateo can take the wheel while the other figures ride along or act out a scene involving Z-Blob's shape-shifting, and the set combines easily with other DREAMZzz vehicles and characters already on a shelf. It works equally well as a standalone build or as an addition to a growing dream-world collection.
