Lego Speed Champions is adding one of the most iconic cars from the early days of the Fast and Furious franchise. The latest kit will include a statue of Paul Walker, Brian O’Conner, and a rolling representation of the famous R34 Nissan Skyline GT-R V-Spec. Through nine films, O’Conner’s R34 from 2 Fast 2 Angry perhaps overshadowed only by the famous A80 Supra from the first film.
Thankfully, the kit looks to respect the source material, and the famous blue-striped livery is instantly recognizable to fans of the franchise. Despite the small size of the Speed Champions build, Lego didn’t skip some of the other recognizable themes from the car. A large blue rear wing is attached to the rear, with a blue Toyo Tire sticker found stuck over the film-correct Florida license plate.

In addition to the smaller, cheaper R34 kit, Lego plans to add a 1578-hp Bugatti Bolide Technic kit, minus the horsepower of course. The kit will go on sale in the first year and will include 905 pieces for $49.99. It stands at three inches high, 12 inches long and five inches wide. Technic kits are meant to help introduce kids to the world of engineering, but more than that, they’re really cool.
Bugatti only made 40 track-only versions of the Bolide, with each costing about $5 million. Additionally, Bugatti sold the Bolide and Chiron earlier this year. Assuming you don’t star in the Fast and Furious franchise and therefore can’t afford a sold-out $5 million car, $50 for a foot-long example complete with moving pistons seems about as much as the rest of us will ever get to own a car. Bolide.
