LEGO® Technic 42111 - Dom's Dodge Charger

I purchased this as a Christmas gift for my husband and he was overjoyed! He loved the attention to detail that this set has and the playability of it.

This built has taken me almost two years to do. every time I start there's part missing, in my last replacement part order I mad it took about 8 months to get the parts and now that I think it is good to continue, several steps into it another part missing. This is the fourth time getting replacement parts. POOR QUALITY CONTROL!!!

Ich bin zwar eher ein Fan von filigranen Lego-Sets, jedoch bin ich ein großer Fast and the Furious Fan und daher durfte der Charger von Dom nicht in meiner Autokollegtion von Lego fehlen. Der Aufbau ist mit der Bauanleitung sehr gut machbar. Kann ich nur empfehlen.

After hours and hours, it looks complete. But you can’t play with it - and the “wheelie stand” - terrible. The wheels don’t turn and the stand doesn’t support the weight. If there was ever the need for a set of 3D instructions, this was it. I spent literally hours just staring at various parts of the instructions trying to figure out where to put the modules just built - and obviously I must have done at least a few wrong since the stand doesn’t stay up and the wheels don’t turn when the car is on a surface (they turn fine when I lift the car off a surface). And the idea of having to pull the thing apart to fix it - frightening. So, my son, who is a die hard Fast ‘N Furious fan can’t really play with it. There were so many times when I thought “really, this is the best way to build this?!?” And a few times thought that I must have skipped pages or had them turn on me so that things were being done out of order. This was not an easy build in so many places. And then, in others, it was so over simplified I thought I must have done something wrong. On the positive side - it’s a big car when done. And despite some of the criticism about the way it looks, it looks enough like the car to be something my son thinks looks cool. I would have given it a better “value for the $” rating if (1) the instructions were better and (2) if he could play with it. Any suggestions on how to get the wheels to turn - I’m all ears!

The box and description leave out that this set has front and rear suspension, a differential, and rack and pinion steering. The build is quite challenging and well worth the price!

This is the highest piece count I have done for a lego technic set. I have done other technic sets before so this one wasn't to hard for mee. I watched some of the fast and furious movies while I built it which made the experience even better. I love how the doors truck and hood open up. Also the pistons in the engine moving with the wheels and the blower motor belt spinning too! I think this is an awesome set. If you enjoy the fast and furious movies you should get this set.

I loved this set from the start of the build, all the way to displaying it. It’s very cinematically correct. The only critique I have for this set is it has a tad bit too much suspension. Otherwise, this product is amazing
