The LEGO kit comes in either a black set or a brown set, comprised of over 110 LEGO pieces to put together. When the LEGO Leica M camera is complete built, the toy structure stands at 2 inches tall and 3 x 1.25 inches wide, weighing two ounces. The special camera kits are now available for preorder online at Leica Store Miami for the price of $45 USD.
