©2022 LEGO Group

Speed Champions already offers an appealing range of cars, which is now growing to include popular film vehicles!

French retailer JouéClub has today published images of two such models: 76911 007 Aston Martin DB5 and 76912 Fast & Furious 1970 Dodge Charger R/T. These renowned vehicles have appeared in larger LEGO sets before, but never at minifigure-scale. The provided James Bond and Dominic Toretto minifigures are therefore unique.

Both sets are expected to be released on the 1st of August and you can view them below...

76911 007 Aston Martin DB5

  • 298 pieces
  • James Bond

76911-1

76912 Fast & Furious 1970 Dodge Charger R/T

  • 345 pieces
  • Dominic Toretto

76912-1


Are you impressed with these sets and which other film vehicles would you like to join Speed Champions? Let us know in the comments.

When the Speed Champions 76911 has a more realistic front than the 10262 Creator Expert set...

I'm getting both of them!

These renders do not do the sets justice, they look much better in the lifestyle shots those links provide.

What is with the poor renders these days ?

Not the biggest Fast and Furious fan, but I’m getting that Aston Martin Day 1!

The Aston Martin is gorgeous. I'd love a Lotus Esprit submarine as well.

I'll take those 1x2 rounded tiles in every color please (tail lights on the DB5).

Aston Martin looks great. It’ll be an easy pick up for me. Will go great with the 1966 Batmobile. I’m not a fan of the Fast series of movies. I’ll pass on that one.

By in United Kingdom,

The Aston Martin is great. Sadly as a child raised on Dukes of Hazzard, the Dodge looks awful from the front… the rear shot has some degree of chargerishness.

Gravatar
By in United States,

These look nice… but I have a feeling that the price won’t be nice, guessing they will bump up the US price to $29.99 or more :(

Gravatar
By in United States,

Hmmm... A-team van? How about an updated mach-5?

Gravatar
By in Serbia,

Kind of wish the Aston Martin came with both Craig and Connery, but nevertheless a great little design. Cool to think there is now an actual precedent for James Bond-based LEGO in the minifig scale. Doesn't seem to have the machine guns, but I'm sure an ingenious MOC mod will be along in a short while.

Gravatar
By in United States,

They don’t look like Lego at all…
But I want them a ton.

Gravatar
By in United States,

They both look great! Definitely don't look as innovative and unique as the last wave of sets, but I'll definitely be picking both up! I do wish the grill on the Aston Martin wasn't a sticker though; I'd gladly sacrifice some accuracy for interesting building techniques.

Gravatar
By in Belgium,

Do I see correctly only 2 stickers on the Dodge? That has to be some kind of record for Speed Champions set :-)

Gravatar
By in United States,

Not particularly a fan of either franchise, but of these sets and figures? Yes. Yes I am a fan of these.

Gravatar
By in United Kingdom,

As a Bond fan I’ve always dreamed of a minifig scale Bond theme, but this will do for now!

Gravatar
By in Australia,

@Huw looking forward to your review of the Dodge Charger!

Gravatar
By in United States,

These don’t interest me, but a Speed Champions reissue of the BTTF Delorian and Ecto-1 would be a dream.

Gravatar
By in Finland,

Can't wait for someone to mod in an ejector seat.

Gravatar
By in United States,

These look great. Unfortunately, these are not part of any of the main themes I collect so this would be an impulse purchase and those are likely a thing of the past for me due to the continuing price hikes.

Gravatar
By in Australia,

The Aston I like and will buy if the price is decent (or I can get it on sale) but I have zero interest in the Dodge.

Gravatar
By in United States,

Hopefully Lego takes another stab at the BttF Delorean, and doesn't butcher it into being one of the ugliest Lego sets in existence.

Gravatar
By in United States,

I've never seen any of the F&F movies, and I've already got two Lego dodge Chargers. But they're six-wides, so I cant decide if I want that, or not. But the Aston-Martin: that I definitely want. Here's hoping for a Bullitt Mustang; less because of the movie and more to get an eight-wide Mustang.

@Quinnly: Why don't they look like Lego to you?

Gravatar
By in United States,

I’m all in on the Aston Martin.

Gravatar
By in United States,

The Aston Martin looks beautiful! Even with the incoming price hikes they almost seem larger to me and thus worth the likely 25% increase. If the hike is higher than 25%... we'll deal with that later.
The charger looks more like a challenger. I think both challengers and charger look ugly so I don't really care. Dom also looks off, but I haven't watched a single movie where he is a main character.

What windshield piece is being used for the back of the DB5? Is it new?

I agree with others. I really hope we see a DeLorean in this scale at some point! That would be a set that I would very likely buy.

Don't forget the Mach 5 from Speed Racer! (the original 60's cartoon, not the live-action movie or 80's reboot cartoon)

Gravatar
By in Portugal,

Looks better than the Creator Expert one!

Gravatar
By in United States,

I’ll probably pick up the DB5 for the Bond minifig, and may try to use the parts to make a minifig-scale version. Also, this officially makes Vin Diesel a 2-minifig actor, with Groot from the MCU.

Gravatar
By in United States,

Not really a fan of either franchise, but these look incredibly solid.

I hope this leads to more licensed speed champions sets, and maybe there's hope for a minifig scale KITT after all? I can dream...

Gravatar
By in United States,

Besides the afore-mentioned Lotus Espirit Sub, Auric Goldfinger's yellow Rolls Royce Phantom II comes to mind as future (potential) set candidate!

8+ for sets from violent movie franchises. 18+ for Sesame Street and Winnie the Pooh. Age recommendations are not just arbitrary, but brain-dead stupid. Lego should just forget age ratings at this point.

It's not about the age of the theme / content rating, it's about the techniques used in building the set in question. As The Man Upstairs stated in The LEGO Movie: "That's just a suggestion... they have to put that there."

For Example: I've struggled with Technic labeled for 12 year old's, (I'm almost 30 years old) while I've seen kids at like 10 breeze through D2C set's with age ranges up to 18. Basically, LEGO set age range depends on what the general, average person can do. it breaks down on the individual level.

Gravatar
By in Netherlands,

Cool idea, but neither of these two really work for me. I doubt they could have done a better job with the DB5 without making specialized pieces, but it just looks off. And that Charger looks rather crude. After the last batch of regular Speed Champions sets these feel like a step back.

But the idea of movie cars this size, I really like that! Looking forward for more of these! Besides those already mentioned, how about:
- General Lee
- Bluesmobile
- Lotus Esprit submarine
- anything from Mad Max
- Peugeot 406 from Taxi
- AE86 from Initial D
- Catbus from Totoro
- Smokey & the Bandit
- Christine
- Alligator Car from Death Race 2000
- the truck from Duel
- Trans AM from Redline
- Kaneda's bike from Akira
- the Manta from New Kids
- the chariot from Hercules in New York
- anything from M.A.S.K.

And how about some music video cars?
- ZZ Top Eliminator
- the limo from Aphex Twin's Windowlicker (now that's gonna be a repetitive built....)

Gravatar
By in United Kingdom,

While not from a movie I'd love KITT from Knight Rider. Considering we got the lego dimensions pack a while back, 71286, it's not out of the realms of possibility.

Gravatar
By in United States,

I’m not a huge fan of either series, I’ve only seen the latest entries of each plus Fast 1 and Hobbs & Shaw but this is a great concept. Speed Champions vehicles usually fail to pique my interest since they’re not something I’d imagine seeing on the street or from a film. This rectifies both of those, I’m not that big on car knowledge but I assume so. The dodge is the better deal of the two imo but I don’t have strong thoughts either way.

Gravatar
By in United States,

How are these better than the larger versions?!?

Gravatar
By in United States,

Definitely getting the DB-5! Even cooler is that it has a Bond minifig! I've always wanted a James Bond theme, and not at 18+ range sizes and prices, so this is a good start.

Dom's Charger seems a little clunky, but it's still decent.

I'm hoping the Bullit Mustang, Eleanor, Christine, and heck, even Herbie would be done sometime soon.

Mr. Bean's Mini and the blue Reliant would be a great two-pack. Maybe a second set with the recliner on the roof.

Gravatar
By in United States,

@WizardOfOss:
Look, I watched the show as a young kid, not really realizing what the car represented, but given the deco on the roof, and the name given to the car, I very much doubt a Dukes of Hazard car will be forthcoming. In the US, at least, it could be financially damaging to their bottom line to do so.

Gravatar
By in United States,

Now your LEGO City can rest safe knowing 007 is stopping shadowy organizations everywhere!

I wonder how long it will take for people to change the heads and hair to represent different Bonds.

Gravatar

@PurpleDave:
Probably true, but we can always dream :-)
(and it's probably not even the most unlikely car from my list....)

And it's not that I like what that flag stands for, but the car itself undeniably is one of the most iconic ever.

Gravatar
By in United States,

Actually, what I would love to see are some of the classic Transformers cars added to the speed champions lineup.
Non-transforming, but with Autobot badges in minifig scale would be great

Gravatar
By in Norway,

I’d love for them to make a spinner car from Blade Runner!!! Especially the one from the sequel ‘Blade Runner 2049’*, given that it’s my favourite movie of all time – but the one from the original film** would be fantastic as well, I want them both lol.

[* K’s (Ryan Gosling’s) new police spinner car]
[** Deckard’s (Harrison Ford’s) old police spinner car]

I mean, my DREAM would be for LEGO to make a sort of “UCS-Batmobile”-sized build of them both (or whatever you’d call those kind of giant car builds) – but that is, unfortunately, quite unlikely, probably.
But this would be a great start!

I think I’d actually genuinely cry tears of joy if they made K’s ‘2049’-spinner car, along with the Ryan Gosling minifigure hahah.

Gravatar
By in United States,

I've had zero interest in Speed Champions since they went to 8-wide builds but a no kidding James Bond minifigure?! I have to get one of those

Gravatar
By in United States,

Trans Am from Smokey & the Bandit and Carroll Shelby's 1965 427 Cobra.

Gravatar
By in United States,

Hating the look of the Charger, but you can bet I'm getting the Aston Martin day 1!

Gravatar
By in South Korea,

The BTTF DeLorean would be a dream come true. But now that LEGO has obtained a Transformers license with 10302 Optimus Prime, would it be out of the question to release the cars from the Transformers movies as Speed Champions? A "Bayverse Bumblebee" Chevrolet Camaro with Sam Witwicky minifigure or even a "Knightverse Bumblebee" VW Beetle with Charlie Watson minifigure would *absolutely* make my day.

Gravatar
By in United States,

@WizardOfOss:
As I said, I did watch the show as a young child. I may have even seen a screen-used copy back in ‘85 during the Universal Backlot Tour. But the show has not aged well in general (not even getting into the iconography), the movie didn’t help (it tried to be a comedy, which upset fans of the show, fans of comedy, and fans of acting). 20-25 years ago it might have been possible, but 2020 kinda put the nails in that coffin.

@Autoboty:
I could get behind any version of Bumblebee from the Bumblebee movie, but nothing from Michael Bay. But mostly I want a G1 Soundwave…which doesn’t really work in the Speed Champions theme…even though it does have a Fast Forward button…

Gravatar
By in United Kingdom,

I'll have:

Lady Penelope's FAB1 Rolls Royce from the original Thunderbirds.

John Steed's Jaguar XJ12 from The Avengers.

Monkeemobile

By in United Kingdom,

Another dodge ?. ok im a big fan of SC so ill be getting both .Prehaps a bond year with some of the other bond cars would be great .

Gravatar
By in New Zealand,

The Munsters dragster. The Panthermobile. Knight Rider's KITT (possibly with KARR as a twin-pack). Starsky & Hutch's Gran Torino. Magnum's Ferrari 308. Only Fools And Horses' Reliant Robin.

Herbie. Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. Christine. James Bond's Lotus Esprit (The Spy Who Loved Me). Genevieve's 1904 Darraq. The Blues Brothers' Bluesmobile (Dodge Monaco police car). Frankenstein's Alligator car from Death Race 2000.

Something there for *all* ages!

By in United States,

Ok now THIS is the line of cars we have been waiting for. I hope that Speed champions line produces more cars in this scale from movies! Steve McQueens Bullitt Mustang anyone?

Also need the truck from Duel, and the accompanying red (Plymouth?) car. Call it the "Ultimate Road Rage" battle pack! Also needed is "the last of V-8 Interceptor's" from the Mad Max films... probably not the original films though, due to Mel Gibson.

By in United States,

@NatureBricks:
Looks like a 1x4 plate centered over a 1x6 brick, both printed. Hopefully that’s precision printing, or the grilles are going to look like some of the goons who try to take out Bond.

Stickerwise, the headlights, taillights, grille and rear windshield look printed. The many license plates (looks like there are five different numbers, which should all come in pairs), the door handles, the side vents, AM logo in the rear, and DB5 logos on three sides will all be stickers, for a total of at least 18 stickers.

For the Charger, the hubcaps and rear bumper look printed, while the grille and license plate appear to be stickers. What I’m not sure about is the rear pillars. Best guess is that’ll make four stickers. I’m kinda shocked that even the movie still shows no front plate (front and rear plates are required for all cars registered in California). Neither did the DeLorean. After digging around, I found that 1911 was the first year California required front plates (1913 is when they first became state-issued!). There were gaps in 1941, 1945-1947, and 1956, but since 1957 all passenger vehicles registered in California have required both front and rear plates. This means the DeLorean was out of compliance as well, except in BttF during 1885.

The weird thing is that Greenlight Collectibles has in the past 2-3 years, done basically every car from DoH except the obvious one.

LEGO could easily get around this by releasing a generic orange '69 Charger.

All I want is a dual-pack with Condorman's car and a KGB Porsche, complete with whale tail. That's got to be high on their list, right? Right?

@cody6268:
While they were able to get away with that for Indiana Jones, the flag covers such a large part of such an otherwise plain design that without it you just have an orange Charger.

It is for sale, but since nobody purchased it yet... ¯\_(?)_/¯

I was trying to figure out where you were able to see the top of the trunk, but if you’re referring to the white background shot above, I do see something sticker like behind the rear pillar. Can’t tell what’s on it, but the real car has a gas cap right there. Five stickers?

Gravatar
By in United States,

My biggest wish would probably be the Mad Max Falcon Pursuit Special. Besides that, a new 89 Batmobile, or re-release that GWP one, would be nice and I think it was pretty close to the right size for SC. Since they shrank down the existing creator expert Aston Martin and Charger, maybe do the same for the Delorean and Ghostbusters car? Since they seem to be working with TF, Bumblebee and maybe even a SC scaled OP would be cool. Not expecting them to transform, but the Camaro and semi would be amazing. Hmm what else... maybe Eleanor, General Lee, Bandit Trans Am, etc.

I know we’re all talking about the Dukes of Hazard car but there is also 0 chance of LEGO releasing a set called “Windowlicker” after the whole controversy about Turg from Mixels. Tl;dr the term basically means special needs people, deriving from the windows of a short bus.

By in Australia,

It's a real shame Lego went with 8 wide. I love the Aston Martin but it won't fit in my 6-4 wide automobile populated city.

They have done a great job capturing the source material though and I really like James Bond's suit.

I'd have preferred a Sean Connery minifig though. Unfortunately it doesn't look like it has any gadges which is a real shame. They could have at least given 007 a printed watch piece or some other handheld gadget.

We have had the Dodge Charger before though Huw, it was Speed Champions set 75893. Granted it was 6 wide and had the red stripe.

I was adopting the "popular" identification because if you call it a Reliant Regal then very few people know what you're talking about! I'd guess the Robin replaced the Regal in, what ... 1974?

Charger's ok, but my goodness that DB5! And mr. Bond minifig, finally!

Of course hoping for a sub theme is too much, but there would be so many cool cars in the 007 franchise to do: The Esprit, Aston Martin V8, Toyota 2000 GT, Sunbeam Alpine...

Lego keeps pulling me back in with the awesome designs. Wow!

The Speed Champions designers are really kicking it! They show how creativity and revision produce excellence.

And, for some incredible reason, Lego hasn't decided to ruin it (yet!) with stupid marketing decisions. Buy them now, Speed Champions sets will probably be $40 next year with one less minifig. ;)

The new Aston Martin DB5 is a 'Day-one purchase' for me. I think the printed pieces look lovely (especially the head/taillights & front grille), and the rounded/curved shapes seem more accurate at this scale than on the larger 2018 model.

Did not expect these to pop up, they look great but what makes me even more excited is that this is a thing now, hope they do some more movie specific cars in the future.

There’s some weird chunkiness happening under the axels on the Dodge Charger. :(

Makes sense LEGO picked a Daniel Craig as Bond Figure as it's the actor of Bond Movies in cinemas for the past 16 years , but it's nice at least LEGO referenced the other movies via the license plates.

BMT 216A - Goldfinger, Thunderball, SkyFall , Spectre
BMT 214A - GoldenEye , Tomorrow Never Dies
A 4269 00 - No Time To Die

Bond traveled from London through France to Switzerland so the car had revolving number plates to disguise itself.
4711-EA-62 - Goldfinger (France)
LU 6789 - Goldfinger (Switzerland)

I've enjoyed the Fast and Furious movies, but for some reason I am just not impressed with that set, so I'll be passing on it.

The Aston Martin looks cool, though, and should look neat next to the creator expert one.

Playmobil has a "Goldfinger Edition" DB5 set currently, could be one of the reasons there is no Sean Connery or Gadgets in this set.

As for wanted sets: Give me a "Gumball Rally" (1976) vehicle collection! Or at least, "Gumball Rally AC Cobra vs. Ferrari Daytona", finally a SC double pack I'd likely buy!

"The only thing I find odd is why they have such blatantly CGI models on the box.

I'm sure I can do better renders on my computer."


I wonder how much time and money is spent on these renders that could’ve been saved by just letting the set speak for itself.

Whoever is doing these should be fired. All of them have looked absolutely atrocious, or at least enough of them have to really make the products look worse. Every time I see one of these renders, I think they look like the packaging for a knockoff product.

I mostly agree, except for the fact that many 18+ sets are smaller and/or simple to build, and older many sets with a lower age rating are much harder before universal implementation of ways to ease the building process. For example, (according to one of its designers, at least. I don't own it) 10188 had no numbered bags so you'd be face with a sea of gray pieces. The 18+ sets are merely given the rating as a way to appeal to adults.

Funny they included the wrench to for Dom. Remember him saying this?

"I had the wrench in my hand... and I hit him! And I didn't mean to keep hitting him, but by the time I was done, I couldn't lift my arm."

Seems Lego forgot the "furious" part of that movie

Normally I'm not at all interested in cars, but 007? Nice!

Although I would have preferred Connery, Moore or even Brosnan; Craig is right down there with Lazenby when it comes to my least favourite Bond actor.

That thing’s ginormous! My four-seater Beetle is much smaller. Granted, when I put George and Ringo in the back seat, they can’t have any legs…

@MainBricker:
Not in the US. SW 4-6 and 1-2 were all PG, with Ep3 being the “dark” PG-13 film. Some of those were released before PG-13 ratings, but they tweaked scenes in Ep4:SE and Ep6:SE to retain them (both involve an Imperial officer with a visible human face being shot right in the chest). HP 1-3 and 6 were all PG, but 4-5 and 7a-7b were PG-13. The first 14 Eon Bond films predate the 1984 PG-13 rating, and Dalton’s first was the only one to be released with a PG rating post-1984 (even though he wasn’t fast until ‘86). The last ten Bond films have all been PG-13 All ten films in the Fast/Furious franchise have also had PG-13 ratings.

PG-13 is considered the money rating. It’s edgy enough that young kids can’t watch it alone, but not so mature that teens with spare time and money can’t get in by themselves. The summer blockbuster owes a lot to teens looking for ways to keep occupied during the summer, and that’s the rating most likely to draw them in. It’s also something that families might attend together, if the parents deem it safe for their younger kids.

@quincy:
I believe what you’re seeing is the front of the fender not blending into the curved rocker panel very well. It looks way too low to be where the wheel connects. Just one Detroit pothole would put that out of commission for days, if that really is the axle.

@q_159:
Or it’s the wrench he goes after Shaw with. My dad was a mechanic, and I don’t recall him ever using a wrench that size on a car. He does have a pipe wrench that big, but it’s for plumbing. It would also not feel gentle upside the head.

Personally, I am hoping for a 1981 Ferrari 308 GT with a mustachioed driver wearing a Hawaiian shirt.

By in United Kingdom,

As much as I'm a fan on the 1970 Dodge Charger from the first film, I can't help but think they based the wheels of this on the later film versions of the Charger as the printed wheels here seem to be mimicking the large curved spokes of the bigger wheels seen on those versions. It also looks a bit odd printed on a dish with such a small radius to it.

There's a few things off about Dom too, the outfit he's seen with in this set was actually only seen in the film when he was racing his 1993 Mazda RX-7 and not when he was driving his Charger. There he was wearing a white t-shirt with black trousers which would have been more appropriate for this set since that is what he was wearing in the still from the film they have on the back of the box.

I'm not sure if it's just the lighting on the box with their 3D renders but it looks like they've used Medium Nougat for his skin tone which is too dark for Vin Diesel, yes he was tanned but not this much and photos of him in reality show him with a lighter skin tone. Using normal Nougat would be closest for him which this may very well be but we won't know until the reviews start coming out.

I have to say too it feels a bit sad to see so many sets these days relying on 3D renders for the set photos rather than real sets like they still seem to do with some sets. The 3D models just aren't accurate enough for it not be noticeable still and what makes it even more noticeable is their minifigure model has the hands clipping into the arms, the small cylinder with a flat top just behind the main hand is larger than their renders show which has to mean they are clipping.

As an aside, you can modify Speed Champions set 75873 Audi R8 LMS into the R8 convertible that Tony drives in Iron Man 2 (the new armory set just has a generic convertible included). I'm in the process of converting the LMS version. The rear deck of the car needs the most attention.

The Charger looks awful and that rear canopy piece on the Aston Martin will need to be colour matched perfectly for me to buy it. Don’t want another Countach fiasco.

The DB5 is gorgeous, will be tracking this one down for sure. Looks to be new 1/4 curved 1x1 for the headlight shaping? And the sloping rear windscreen is perfection. Perfect companion to the Vintage Car GWP.

@RaiderOfTheLostBrick:
It does not…but it does mean there’s more potential now than six months ago.

@ZANTHERA:
They don’t. They started doing CGI package art over 20 years ago (all of the first wave of Bionicle Toa show clearly impossible posing). They gradually shifted to where only the lifestyle shots are real photos. Quality of CGI artwork apparently varies somewhat.
