LEGO Speed Champions 2022 building reviews - Ferrari 512M, Lotus Evija & Lamborghini Countach 

These sets for such a small price give you the experience of building the coolest 18+ sets. That's why I love speed champions (oh yes, the parts themselves are also very cool, I'm a system MOC'er)

Nice review, thanks! Two additions to the Countach: in the real version, the steering wheel is'nt aligned with the driver seat as well, as the big front wheels take so much space, the driver is sitting a bit angled towards the middle of the car. The suplied minifigure most likely represents Valentino Balboni, the legendary former test driver of Lamborghin (and he usualy wore such an 70s/80s leather jacket and jeans). So even more attention to details from Lego!

Didn't the original countach had the spoiler placed in a way that it totally blocked the rear view? So for me the thick spoiler of the lego model is more like an easteregg than a flaw

I'm really looking forward to this Speed Champions wave, the techniques and new elements used look interesting and the level up in detail you can really see. I'm mostly looking forward to the Aston Martin pack and the Lotus finally getting British makes but the Lambo and Ferrari will be clear highlights.

Even if the cars aren't perfect, i still celebrate them. For me, these 3 models are definitely the SC high lights in 2022. Thanks for building and showing them.

I've finally built the Countach - the headlights use internal reflection through the clear bricks to bring up the image from the stickers underneath! I've never seen that before, and this idea never occurred to me. It is such an amazing technique and produces an awesome effect. Not to mention all the other awesome craziness in this set. Mind blowing.

Speed Champions has me regularly buying sets again. Next level LEGO. Constantly amazed at how much detail they manage to fit in a small model. The Lotus and Lambo are a must-buy for me. That Lambo is really top-notch, and an Iconic model to boot. Not too interested in the Ferrari. Very nice that you continue to cover Speed Champions. Also, I think offering criticism is a sign that you take the design seriously. It's a sign of respect.

I love Speed Champion series! They are definitely getting better.

Fantastic rundown on the build assembly, details, accuracy of each model. Really looking forward to building the entire wave in March. Though the simplest of the three builds, countach still looking the best, though the printed canopy looks almost grey against the white of the actual car. Lego really needs to improve that.

I liked the 6 wide Speed Champions, bought quite a few, but I fell in love with the 8 wide, had to have all of them, the same case this year, the improvement, atention to detail and the designers listening to their fans is What makes me love the new Speed Champions, thanks guys, keep up the good work, you as well RB 👍

Like you said, Countach looks amazing for the small scale- and with those great-looking wheels! I hope Lego keeps making incremental design improvements every year with Speed Champions, these models are something else compared to those from 3 years ago.

Great review! I appreciate you going through all the details, the 8 wide cars are now basically model cars that are fun to build instead of "toy" cars, definitely my favorite theme currently!

FINALLY OMG I've been waiting for the reviews!

I'm so excited.Ive been waiting for the countach for so long and it's finally here! :D

I love the 8w Speed Champions, they are getting better and better. The building techniques are awesome!

The reason why I watch your content is because you are very informative and critical. Well done and keep it up.

I remember years ago when I built the 6 wide McLaren Senna set. I can really see the visible difference in making these sets 8 and even 9 studs wide. This was definitely a needed improvement, as these are as close to die-cast cars as you will get for such an amazing price. Love speed champions, and love your videos, keep up the great work!

Great review. Looking forward to adding them all to my collection of Speed Champions. ✌🏻

Yours is the only review I respect, well done as usual

Awesome review as always!! Thank you for your honesty!! Can’t wait to get the Lamborghini on my shelf!

I always look forward to the Speed Champion Sets. They are my favorite Lego line. Great review.

Cool video and great cars, gonna add them to my collection!

I've only recently adopted the Speed Champions sets, and I'm loving them. I am very critical of the shapes also, as I grew up with many of them as posters on my wall, or watched them racing on TV. I appreciate your level of detail on the cars, especially the Lamborghini. I'll likely have to get a few of these sets, and make some of the online MOC's available as well as the Lego set. Keep up the great work and videos

Damn I'm really excited for this

Eagerly waiting the W12 and AMG Project one set review. 😍

Love these it's about time lego made some throwback cars and the new Lotus with the original Lotus Green and yellow colors. It's my favorite wave of all time.

Great sets. excellent review.

i love countach :)

I can't wait to get the 2022 line up of these. By far my favorite Lego theme.

Your Wing Fix on the Countash was great. I'll make sure to do that when I get mine soon.

I'm looking forward to getting the Ferrari in March, thanks for the review!

Can't wait to build these beauties!

Like the 2022 wave a lot. I will buy all of them. Thanks for the review.

Love this set. I played with LEGO when i was kid (sadly not any was left), now 25 years later i brought myself my first sets, LEGO Speed champions is the first and i love them, i have Lamborghini Countach and Porsche 963. Hope LEGO will release more from this theme. They do not need long to put together but its fantastic and they look great on shelf.

Can’t wait for these. So much better than last year’s line up.

I can't wait to get them! I love to Countach most. Partly because it is one of my favorite cars. The 512M is stunning as well and the Lotus is my least favorite one. The Speed Champions sets of this year are definitely the best of all time!

I’ve loved speed champions for years. The countach looks sick.

Thanks for a great review, they are all awesome, fine for their size. Good to know the details about their building. Don´t like the huge amount of stickers those dudes from Lego refuse to eliminate completely ! At least the Lotus has barely two headlights printed...Hope they keep going that way, PRINTING LEGO pieces! 😎

I'm training to choose a speed champions car to buy, and this videos help a lot, I love the attention to detail and build techniques. Thanks!

Oh god that Countach... I love it so much!

I found the Evija on shelves early at my Walmart so I picked it up. I was very afraid the forest green-ish color wouldn't look good on the final model, but it's really grown on me. Was also a blast to put together, the Lotus firesuit for the figure looks spectacular. Can't wait to find the rest :)

i love this channel your review is so calm. next do the mercedes :)

Your videos are really well done you should have more subs

Need that Countach so badly, can't wait to get one🤩

Nice video! My favourite is definitely the Lamborghini Countach!

I tend to get a Speed Champion or two as a little cooldown build and a way to see what kind of new techniques could be displayed. of the three, the Lotus looks most intereting just on color alone, but all three certainly have their charm to them. Nice review.

I bought the Locust, today. And I'm really impressed with it. Gorgeous colors too

They've done many great things with this new wave, i agree with you on the color variation between brick, prints, stickers, etc... all this should match very close together as it's truly takes off from the look when not matching. I'd like to see in the future of Speed Champions the introduction of a wider wheel that goes along their "standard", so the cars that have staggered wheels/tyre setup are done correctly. Otherwise... i'll be buying all of these in a heartbeat!

Sometimes ago I swore to never start the speed champions collection (because it is probably too addictive!!!). But as I love the retro racing cars, I have to confess I need the Lambo and Ferrari in addition to the Ford Gulf from last year ✨🤩🤯 Excellent review 🙏

Just got the Countach yesterday. It's awesome.

the ferrai is to beautiful cant wait to get it

Great review as always, I wonder if he ever checked out the Lego 10295 countach rebrickable, the detail is great for a moc

I got all 3, but have only built the Lambo so far - and it was AWESOME! I love love love the 8-wide Speed Champions sets - so much detail, solid builds, and my kids can play with them.

With the way speed champions are goin', they totally seem to be mini creator cars 👍🏼☺️

this is good

God that Ferrari looks amazing

I think the countach is on the next level!

Ooo the lotus looks amazing, I might pick that up, I've already got a red dodge charger made from instructions from this line

Have you seen Bricks Blocks and Mocs lamborghini countach, a work of art!

My favorite set use to be the Corvette set. But after this Lambo Countach set came out, that instantly became my favorite set. Even tho I am VERY into Corvettes, this Countach set is incredible. I can’t wait to get my hands on it

cool i'm very exited :)

like your video as always. I also like the Lamborghini

8:42 Just like the stickers on the Lego Speed Champions Porsche 911 turbo 3.0

Definitely going to get those three on the release day :)

Can’t wait to get the Lamborghini Countach, the lotus Evija and the Aston Martin double pack

Not been long into Lego again, but these sets are just sang to me - being 8-wide, makes them superb display models and are super collectable. I definitely want these three, I have five already, and need more!! Thanks for the constructive views; there has to be a lot of compromise, but the fact they are coming up with unique pieces, and starting to introduce Technic assemblies, says to me that Lego are taking note and trying to improve all the time - which can only mean that these little beauties will be around for a while yet.

The Countach is on my shelf right now, waiting for assembly. :)

Got those 3 a week ago. They are awesome.

Definitely getting these 3 and the Mercedes’ sometime set this year!

The lotus now interests me as for the other 2 I was already going to get them. Looking forward to the twin packs especially the Aston Martin one need to be convinced with the lime car

6:05 the driver wheel technic looks like the one used on the McLaren Elva in 2021

Protect speed champions at all costs!!!

Really enjoying your Speed Champions reviews. I checked and the rear glass from the Lotus has been around since 2017 and has been used in 27 previous sets. Part# 27262

Your channel is very professional with these reviews

these were really great sets of speed championship series. i'm not interested in Le Mans cars but building this ferrari was a brilliant experience. it was so joyful! lotus has also interesting ways to build and has great colors.. in real life, my favourite was countach but somehow this one comes after ferrari, i think...

I just built the Ferrari 512M last night. 3:02 I found that the replacing the flat painted clear brick on the side of the head lamps with a solid red flat brick greatly improves the look. If you look at the actual car on the box you will see the headlamp has more of a boundary separating it from the fender. Plus the painted brick does not match the red bricks. A solid red brick greatly improved either side and front look of my model. I also used two black L bricks under the chassis to lower the axle and allow for the clearance of two large racing slick tires, again, in accordance with the photo of the actual car. Minor details. The car itself already looks great built to specs.

I really like the Ferrari. I never got any speed champion so I might pick it up at the LEGO store.

Thanks for the great review I was just wondering when you were going to upload the review for the McLaren formula 1 car. Keep up the great work!

When I saw for the first time the new wave of speed champions I had decided that I'll skip the Lamborghini but you review is making to change my mind. Thanks for the first impressions

Another great review! Going to get that Lambo to add with my speed champion Porsche 911 Turbo. Now I just need Lego to make the Ferrari Testarossa and my classic sports car collection from the 3 major brands will be complete.

That Countach looks sick. Wish Lego would do a larger version to the scale of the Mustang without alternative porsche build but this will have to do.

New 2022 Speed Champions dropped early for me, (March 1so official, local smiths had it a week before) was saving for a chocolate chip tamagotchi but i went home, grabbed my whole savings, and walked back then bought each one (+benz amg) before the Smith’s closed. best decision ever.

im absolutely gonna get the countach and the ferrari

The Lotus accuracy is horrendous but the Lamborghini and Ferrari look mint 👌🏾

My fave set is the lotus and the countach

Too critical...? Not at all. Such analysis is why I watch your channel. Thanks for another great review. I think I shall probably be buying all three of these models this year.

i remember the early releases of the 2021 cars like it was last week it went so fast but felt so long for the next 2022 wave

Nice

Countach looks really good made of Lego. I want it.

The extra thicc wing on the coutach is accurate because the real wing was famous for producing more drag than it did downforce.

i saw all these in a garden centre i went to they look sick

Modern day speed champions are so great

That printed canopy piece at 5:40 looks like a transparent version of the leaf pieces from Sunflowers 40524.

since the stickers are clear on the Countach, its actually possible to make the wheels silver with the stickers!

1:45 interesting symmetrical structure is also known as the engine. Other than that, great job with the video! Could feel your enthusiasm

I think you're right about the transparent clip under the wing of the Lambo. As far as the NACA duct (I learned a new word) all they needed was to provide sticker at the top to complete the triangular shape. I guess someone could use black paint to complete it. IDK.

Those are definitely cool cars but im still waiting for a BMW Speed Champion Set.

Honestly, Lego would do well to hire you. I imagine we’d lose these awesome videos of yours if that happened. Anyways, thank you!

In my opinion, I don't think you are too critical. You're simply pointing out what should be said and help us make up our minds on whether this is a set we may or may not want. I have heard of many collectors who have had bad complaints about the color matching and it can be a big deal breaker for some. So pointing it out is definitely something that needs to be said.

I’ve had to buy a new bookcase just to accommodate the 2022 sets as had run out of space after last years 9 models, think I’ll start with the two double sets, c’mon 1st March!!
