LEGO Volkswagen Beetles

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Iconic 1960 Charlotte Model is Rendered in Toy Building Blocks

— December 17, 2014 — Autos
Fans of classic toy building blocks and cars will love the LEGO Volkswagen Beetle. It is an amalgamation of the two in only the best of ways. Although not life-sized like many LEGO creations have been of late, it is impressively realistic. The LEGO Volkswagen Beetle measures 40.7 cm (16 in) long and 17.5 cm (6.9 in) wide, yet feels much bigger than it really is.

Not only are the proportions of the LEGO Volkswagen Beetle on point, but it also features opening doors, trunk and hood. Based on the iconic 1960 Charlotte model, it comes with a display plate as well as original VW model information. The LEGO Volkswagen Beetle made up of 1,626 pieces all together.
