Description

Vehicle building, Racers style

The set belongs to the Racers range and focuses on vehicles rather than figures. At 552 pieces it is a larger Racers model in which building the vehicles takes centre stage. The name points to an escape in the city: a car racing away and pursuers who want to keep up. If you like building cars and then rolling them across the table, this set links building and play. With wheels, axles and matching body parts you end up with vehicles that really roll and can be handled.

Black and grey with white

Black, light bluish grey and dark bluish grey define the colour scheme, with white adding bright accents. The result is a sober, technical look that suits fast vehicles and city streets. With 142 different parts there is plenty of variety in the box, including many specialist pieces for bodywork and chassis. For builders who like to work on details, that is more appealing than a set built from a few standard bricks repeated over and over. White lets details such as stripes and headlights stand out, which is what makes a fast car look believable.

No figures, plenty of imagination

No minifigures are included, so the vehicles and their surroundings alone drive the play. That leaves room for your own ideas: you can seat drivers from other sets, lay out a street on baseplates or bring the vehicles into an existing town. Collectors of Racers sets can place the model beside other cars and compare the range, without figures taking up space on the shelf. Shelf space is not taken up by accessories either, so the set works more as a vehicle showcase than as a scene.

Reusing parts with purpose

The parts list on this page shows the colour and quantity of every element, which makes checking a second-hand set for completeness easier. With “What can I build?” you can see which further models your existing bricks can make. The many black and grey specialist pieces are particularly good for your own cars, motorbikes and race tracks that you want to design freely. These include wheels, body plates and slopes that you can put to use straight away in entirely different vehicle ideas.
