On ne va pas se mentir, cela fait quelques jours que cette nouveauté n’a plus de secrets pour personne. LEGO présente aujourd’hui officiellement le nouveau véhicule de la gamme LEGO Creator Expert, avec la référence 10271 Fiat 500.
LEGO propose ici une représentation d’une version vintage de la célèbre petite voiture italienne, la Fiat 500F telle qu’on a pu la connaître à la fin des années 60 (ou pas, personnellement je n’étais pas né :D). Le modèle compte 960 pièces, et sera proposé au prix de 84,99 € en France dès demain, dimanche 1er Mars.
Avec cette voiture, on retrouve comme d’habitude un intérieur détaillé et quelques accessoires comme un porte-bagages, une valise et un chevalet supportant un tableau représentant la voiture devant le Colisée.
Le modèle semble joliment détaillé à en juger par les premiers visuels. Je jugerai sur pièces lorsque je l’aurai entre les mains, mais quelques critiques s’élèvent déjà dans la communauté relatives à la forme générale de la voiture, reprenant difficilement les courbes si particulières de sa grande soeur.
Ci-dessous le descriptif officiel. Je le remplacerai ce soir par sa version française. Pour retrouver la petite italienne sur la boutique officielle, cela se passe à cette adresse.
