LEGO Technic Porsche 911 RSR Race Car Model Building Kit, Advanced Replica, Exclusive Collectible Set, Gift for Kids, Boys & Girls 42096

I was looking for a Christmas gift for my partner. Who is very hard to please. Plus he likes a challenge. The item arrived 2 days before the delivery date. Which I was very happy about. I do not know about assembly or durability due to being a gift. But over all , from what I've seen of the product. I'm very happy.Update. This gift was welcomed with alot of joy. My partner has been on the assembly for a few days. Doing an hour or so at a time. In no rush to finish it. Very complexed. No numbers on the bags. And parts are mixed up a little in the bags. So this product is definitely made for the older child and more to the adult level. If this item has been bought for a child or is intended for a child. They WILL need an adult with them. (Unless they are like Sheldon.) Brilliant product.

Fantastic Lego kit, lots of fun building it

A dream in reality, a reality in Lego. The Porsche 911 is one of the ultimate sports cars that any enthusiast must have. Provided with a detailed, well laid out, colourful ~500 step instruction booklet - I was able to successfully complete this Lego car.A decision that some may say is controversial, I enjoyed not having the bags numbered. As a set targeted towards the older audience, I thought it provided more of a challenge than previous sets. I discovered that there were no missing pieces; and there was also some spare common Lego parts in case some did go astray which was pleasing to see.The technic capabilities is appealing on completion. To see the moving parts and the in-built suspension really shows the detailed level that Lego and Porsche have concomitantly invested to deliver an impressive product.Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed completing the Porsche 911 and had hours of entertainment. If you have a passion for cars and Lego then this set is definitely the perfect product for you.

Its lego so what Id expect. Good product, great price, fast delivery.

It's a great model, I'm new to lego and have previously only built the ferrari 488 gte, which I thought was fantastic to put together, the numbered bags made it so much easier. The porsche however was not so pleasurable in that the bags weren't numbered and you had to open every bag pretty much to find the parts needed, I get that it would be ideal to sort the parts and place them into separate receptacles, but I just don't have the space or adequate amount of receptacles to do that. I do love the finished car though, and would recommend it highly.

Emptying this box with all the pieces was daunting so many pieces but I put the pieces into several pots to make my own system on where to find the relevent pieces.I loved building this set it took me a while but I finished it and it looks amazing.With any Lego come up with some kind of system to know where what piece is and it won't be as stressing as it was for me on my other Lego sets.I hate the stickers though it's not just this but all sets, I just find them so annoying.

I couldn't wait to build this Porsche , great project , lots of detail would have given it 5 stars for everything but unfortunately coming towards the end of the build I could not finish it, there was several parts missing which was really disappointing ,when I opened the box before the build , all the bags where sealed so really don't know what has happened , got in touch with Lego and they said my order for new parts didn't pass the validation checks, so I would have to purchase the missing parts which I have now done , my advise would be to maybe count all the pieces before you start your build, then you don't have to wait till the parts come to finish your project .

I enjoyed this one especially as I got it at a very good (for Lego) price of £72It was a good build, but finished it's a bit sparse on detail and I'm not convinced about the headlight assembly (too bulbous) the more expensive Porsche model does it better and it's not as if there are more parts to that particular area so I don't think it's a simple 'you get what you pay for'The presentation isn't as nice as the more expensive models either, but that is a different value proposition.I built this after the defender and it was nowhere near as complex so if I'd paid full retail, this review would more likely be 3 star at best but I have to review it as I found it.

The Lego Expert series of kits are absolutely incredible, especially the car assembly kits.I hane completed the Porsche RSR kit and was gobsmacked at the incredible design and production effort required to produce such intricate components , let alone the creation of the brilliant instruction manual.I am now in the process of assembling the Volkswagen Beetle, which despite apparently having less parts than the Porsche, seems more demanding because the parts are generally much smaller.I am a sem-retired orthopaedic surgeon who is not unfamiliar with re-assembling small pieces of fractured bone.Congratulations to the LEGO engineers

No numbers on the packets or book, so how do you know what packet to open?? This is the first lego technic set like this.

This product quality is amazing and the final build is rewarding

A very detailed and exciting build for car lovers. The Porsche looks great once built, with plenty of realistic features. It’s challenging but not overwhelming, and the final result is a stunning model you’ll be proud to display.

sono un appassionato di auto e lego, conosco la RSR per averci fatto diversi km in GT sport :D quando ho visto questo set si è trattato di un acquisto obbligato. Quello che mi chiedevo era quali fossero le differenze con la "vecchia" GT3 RS, che costa circa il doppio, essendo come dimensioni poco più grande: fondamentalmente manca il cambio sequenziale, con tutti i numerosi pezzi che comporta, e poco altro. Anche la confezione e le istruzioni sono uno step sotto, per la gt3 erano più curate. Quindi, se vi basta il risultato finale montato, poca cosa ;)Direi che in ogni caso questo set vale decisamente il suo prezzo, perchè presenta tutta una serie di dettagli e soluzioni che faranno felici gli appassionati, e renderanno piacevole il montaggio (un paio di mezze giornate nel mio caso).Gli unici difetti che mi sento di segnalare, sono gli adesivi, che hanno una tonalità di bianco diversa da quella della carrozzeria.... e forse la dimensione delle ruote, che a mio avviso sembrano troppo piccole!Nel complesso comunque un ottimo modello!PS ordinato domenica e arrivato giovedì (come previsto), solo che, destino beffardo, il mercoledì mi trovo lo stesso articolo a 12€ in meno e con consegna il giorno seguente. Per assurdo mi sarebbe convenuto fare il reso e un nuovo ordine, pazienza, dà un po' fastidio, lo stesso è un buon prezzo rispetto al listino
