I’m about to order this, it will be my first Lego set ever, I’m 36 years old, kind of intimidating but I’m gonna go for it and hopefully this will start my Lego building journey! I broke my leg and all I can do is stay home all day, perfect time to get into building! 👍🏾
I haven't played with LEGO in years until recently and this was the first Technic set I bought because I like Bugatti cars and over 900 pieces at $50 seemed like a good deal. Really enjoyed building it and it looks really nice and is a decent size.
Hello Unbrickme! Thank you for the review. You've convinced me to buy the set when it is available. By the way if you haven't noticed yet, the wheel arches should be placed the other way around so that the "X" lights are more to the front. Cheers!
Thank you for the demo. I just got this, and I like the moving parts, but the Neom McLaren has pull back action. It was a most pleasurable build. I'm hoping this will be, too.
I’m 23 and have built/played with legos most of my life. My mother just purchased this set for me for christmas and said she got it on sale at walmart for $25. I’m really impressed with it especially considering prices of lego sets now. My second ever technic set and I love it! Will make a cool desk piece for the office.
is there an easy way to modify the rear axle? like changing rod in one wheel with shorter one to not connect do the system, only for wheel holing in its place and turn freely? :)
Good review. Personally, I cannot fathom nor accept the presence of all the red and blue technic pins sticking out everywhere. Why do they not make them black and elevate the whole Set as a display item? It makes no sense to me and I cannot buy things that make no sense to me. I also hate the stickers and the rear lights that are essentially just hanging there instead of being integrated in the chassis.
Great review! I think the reason there is no differential is because the set does not a have a 5x7 technic frame (which is usually where the differential is placed). There is simply no space for the 5x7 technic frame.
I just recently built this and it’s pretty cool. Couple of fun play features the engine rotates there’s a crank shaft and diff attached to the back wheels and when you push the car the 16 pistons move up and down. The doors open the steering wheel turns the front wheels turn like an actual car. The knob ontop moves the wheels through a shaft you build. There’s a lot of stickers which is annoying I wish Lego would just do printed peace’s. It looks I’d say pretty close to the real car some things are not 100% but it’s close and it was a fun build. Bag 3 was annoying because it’s a lot of repetitive building I didn’t like bag 3 lol.
I built this set a few months ago and it was one of my favorites until my little brother threw it out of my window now all the prints and stickers are scuffed up.
I built this my first technic with my brother but we both messed up😂 the turning gears the engine gear and thats it but i mean its still such a cool set but in my opinion i like the blue one better
I just got this set for christmas and really enjoyed building it and the functionability of it, other than the whole thing with how it has bad traction in the back, which while annoying, it doesnt bother me that much because I make lego sets for being displayed.
@@christopherdelgiorno4621 check the “egg shape” engine pieces. Make sure they are like put on the second hole from top I believe. If those can’t rotate completely, that will happen. I had to do that to mine.
Im having trouble connecting the pistons to the egg pieces. Every time i try to turn the gear or the egg pieces to make the pistons work, the egg pieces always get stuck on the pistons and do not allow the car to move.
Oh that part was a little tricky the images in the book are not very clear you have to move the the engine and kinda spread it out to a V shape then everything locks together
I know right? What a coincidence! And sariel too! As a result racingbrick and I have both agreed to set up a synchronized swimming team for the three of us, given how well the universe works in strangely putting us together
I understand that this is an older video, and it is very well made. I didn't enjoy this kit at all. After waiting to buy it for a long time, it was bought for me as a gift by somebody that knew I was wanting to get it. I had to do a good amount of troubleshooting of the engine to find where it was jamming, the bumpers are very basic when compared to a lot of similarly priced kits and the stickers on the wheel plates are really not nice, they should have been printed at least. I'm just glad that it's a good looking model, because that at least alleviates some of the disappointment. You mentioned that the lack of differential on the rear axel was a step back, and I agree. Overall I think that the Senna GTR is a far more enjoyable build and easily looks better. Even if the W16 is a cool little gimmick. Saying that, I did enjoy your review of the kit, so for that, I thank you.
@@400Redsport Make sure everything is pushed all the way in. I had one blue rod that was not quite all the way into the grey piece that was causing the egg shaped piece to catch at the front of the engine.
I just got this Lego set myself but I am having issues with the motor locking up the rear axle. Is there a way to fix it so it works smoothly like it should without having to remove the diff?
I got this car and idk if this happens for you or if its just me but when i move it, it like locks and clicks in the gear area (I think) and idk what even causes it and i have been looking for a day and cant find what could cause it. Do you know what I should do? And i also didnt forget anything
The McLaren senna gtr is more realistic than the bolide. The shape of the front compared to the real car is completely off whilst the senna is more comparible to the real one. The colour scheme also isn’t as appealing to me as a blue and black one would have. Honestly, they shouldn’t have made such a great car irl as a small and unrealistic version. Thanks for the review as I was going to buy it but changed my mind after the review. Waiting for the double McLaren speed champions set coming next year
Hi! Which one would be better for a 19 year old without any lego experience: a Lego Bugatti Bolide or a Lego McLaren Senna? In terms of time, patience and quality.
i recommend the Bugatti Bolide! I think the Bolide is better since it has more interesting building techniques. I think both are the same in terms of patience and time. But, if you want more opinions from other technic fans I recommend joining my discord server! discord.gg/ZdmXnjtYDy
does lego ever send extra parts? i just finished bag one and theirs 4 or 5 pieces left and i went back and checked when those parts were used and i have them all installed. someone please help im going crazy over here! LOL
You've put the front fender piece(with the headlights printed on) backwards.
Oopsie, I’ll fix it later
lol, I once had to completely take one of my supercars apart, because I forgot ONE gear in the gearbox 😂
I rarely ever make mistakes in gearboxes and mechanisms like that, but when it comes to decorating with panels I just don’t care haha
@@Unbrickme LOL
@@Unbrickme That's alright, we all make mistakes sometimes. Even the best of us. 🙂👍

How did you find building it my friend?
Lego Technics always has a lot of small peace’s how was the build.
Trust me bro it gets easier quick
Buy buwizz 3.0 plus

bought mine at costco for 40
Built the car and it’s sitting ontop of my fridge looks good.
bro I had it but it suckers
Got mine fir...25! That is good deal considering number of parts!
Just got this set at Walmart for $25 for their pre Black Friday sale. It’s my first Lego set in over 20 years.
Same im getting it too!
Same here 😁
WAIT WHAT THE FUCK? IT WAS ACTUALLY HAVE BEEN FUCKING $25?? thts insane cuz its still 25, but then when u click on it it says 39.99???☠☠💀
Just got mine from target
@@horchata_king25 me fucking too, it doesnt have 900 pc tho it has like 700 man😭😭😭☠💀💀
Your front fenders are swapped, the front lights are facing back
Lego: You like it, you buy it.
Also Lego: Solid axle? No problem!
Hello Unbrickme! Thank you for the review. You've convinced me to buy the set when it is available. By the way if you haven't noticed yet, the wheel arches should be placed the other way around so that the "X" lights are more to the front. Cheers!
nahh fr
ye lol
Nooooooo people Lego made it like that
Great review. I really like you took us on the building process.
Thanks I’m glad you enjoyed it
We need a Lego car color selection, so the Bolide can be Blue or red as well
Thank you for the demo. I just got this, and I like the moving parts, but the Neom McLaren has pull back action. It was a most pleasurable build. I'm hoping this will be, too.

Nice! I’m 21
Thanks for review! I'm amazed how could you keep so long without blinking :)
It always happens whenever I talk to the camera. My blinking mechanism stops being involuntary
@@Unbrickme so, you don’t read from teleprompter or something like that?
No I memorize key points then improvise
@@Unbrickme really amazing!
I just finished this set. I absolutely loved it. I didn't know you could open the hood though. Definitely a 10/10 build.
I didn’t know that either.
the front part with the print is backwards. the white X's are the headlight so you have to turn them around
i noticed that too
Hey I have a question the think that pushes my pistons gets stuck or it’s something else that won’t let my car go
I used to play CSR Racing years ago, this brand deal takes me back
Nice! How’s the game?
@@Unbrickme I wouldn't recommend it, they're money hungry every good car you pretty much have to pay for even with a mod it gets boring after a while
Happy new year, I am so happy that I finally bought a Lego technic, I like watching your channel so thanks a lot.
is there an easy way to modify the rear axle? like changing rod in one wheel with shorter one to not connect do the system, only for wheel holing in its place and turn freely? :)
Does that "battery" to make the engine move come integrated with the set?
Good review. Personally, I cannot fathom nor accept the presence of all the red and blue technic pins sticking out everywhere. Why do they not make them black and elevate the whole Set as a display item? It makes no sense to me and I cannot buy things that make no sense to me.

Dude it’s still a kids toy don’t get me wrong I like them too and have several but they’re design with kids in mind
Great review! I think the reason there is no differential is because the set does not a have a 5x7 technic frame (which is usually where the differential is placed). There is simply no space for the 5x7 technic frame.
Differentials do NOT require frames. For example, the LEGO technic off roader 8257 did not have a frame and also included a differential
I've just designed a Yugo RC MOC, and I only used the 14720 3x5 beam for the differential.
I just recently built this and it’s pretty cool.

Bag 3 was annoying because it’s a lot of repetitive building I didn’t like bag 3 lol.
Love the new parts. I often use a black and yellow color scheme for MOCs, so this is a must-have for me, no question.
Black and yellow is the best color scheme
@@Unbrickme Ik but I think blue and black and yellow and black are equally good
I built this set a few months ago and it was one of my favorites until my little brother threw it out of my window now all the prints and stickers are scuffed up.
I built this my first technic with my brother but we both messed up😂 the turning gears the engine gear and thats it but i mean its still such a cool set but in my opinion i like the blue one better
did u have trouble with the part with the csr logo on it when attaching to the structure
the hood on the senna does open you have to move the middle piece up before you can open the hood
Oh cool
You have an amazing collection of legos 6:42
I am having an issue with the engine.
When i drive the car forward it runs good but when i run it backwards it gets stuck
Bro had to re build 😂
This is my first Lego! My wife bought it for me as a gift last week
The lights being backwards killed me
I just got this set for christmas and really enjoyed building it and the functionability of it, other than the whole thing with how it has bad traction in the back, which while annoying, it doesnt bother me that much because I make lego sets for being displayed.
Same here, gotta ask, how long did it take you?
My isn't rolling forward and I put everything in place correctly. I got it to fix and it was working fine and left it alone and it's like stuck again.
@@christopherdelgiorno4621 check the “egg shape” engine pieces. Make sure they are like put on the second hole from top I believe. If those can’t rotate completely, that will happen. I had to do that to mine.
This was my first technic Lego set, so hard even the first bag!
Same it was a challenge
i’m tempted to get this. i got the senna and huracan tecnica over it but this might be my next one
My engine doesn't spin like yours but it looks correct. Still not want to move to next step till I know it is okay
Great review. I have the senna but after watching this video I might consider the boldie.
Right on!
just wanted to point it out that u flipped the front fenders (idk if you mentioned it anywhere in the video)
Im having trouble connecting the pistons to the egg pieces. Every time i try to turn the gear or the egg pieces to make the pistons work, the egg pieces always get stuck on the pistons and do not allow the car to move.
Where did u have the power for the motor? Wow !
you put the front panels on wrong the white x is the headlight
Maybe a Bumblebee Bee version would be an option...
shame about the fixed suspension, at least doors open, a load of recent technic cars don't!
Amazing Review as usual ❤️😍
Thanks! Good to see you again! Btw congrats on 11k subs
My problem for the bolide is the steering because the wheel is too near to the bumper😦😦
bro thought the headlights were a vinyl on the fender
Makes me happy to see that you get sets early now like the other big leg RUclipsrs
Makes me very happy too
why is my engine not working like it just makes a huge breaking sound
Took me 2 yrs to build.... lego should hire him
I have completed it in 1 day
2 days for me I did two bags a day.
I bought the same Lego! I can’t wait to finish the build😊
The only part i didn't like building is the engine. Maybe it was just me, but it was super confusing putting it together somehow
Great review but you put on the thing that covers up the wheel backwards
Hey unbrickable quick reminder u put the cross headlight wrong and u need to reverse it great video tho
The camera shot shocked me
you put the front fenders backwards
3:07 its called a diffuser
can you actually make it run with the technic engine?
great review. keep it up!
Thank you so much for your support
Love the set but my littke thing that makes the pistons move sometimes lock up a little.bit
lol you apply the front light pieces in wrong direction 😂
If this dude dont out the printed headlight peice on correctly imma loose my mind also how do you not notice that when building
guys i cant do engine part pls help
Oh that part was a little tricky the images in the book are not very clear you have to move the the engine and kinda spread it out to a V shape then everything locks together

Every person who saw the sticker back wards is probably mad or laughing
The technical name for "egg-piece" is called a cam.
Thanks! I didn’t know that
Built the whole thing then realised the engine was wrong... took it apart, gave up and chucked it in the bin...
