Celebrated British automaker McLaren has teamed up with iconic toy company LEGO to create a truly mind-boggling LEGO supercar that is designed to function as a block-constructed replica of the limited-edition McLaren Senna supercar.
The McLaren Senna is itself a tribute to Formula One driving legend Ayrton Senna, with only 500 units of the vehicle set to be made. However, people without tremendous amounts of money to throw at the McLaren supercar can still feast their eyes on this LEGO supercar variant which is set to make appearances at events around the world.
Comprising half a million bricks and weighing hundreds of kilograms more than the actual McLaren Senna car, this LEGO supercar is a magnificent example of artistic creativity and engineering prowess being used to promote a luxury vehicle.
