A true American hero will soon be screeching into stores with the arrival of the Lego Creator Expert Ford Mustang from March 1.

Developed in a partnership between Ford and Lego Group, the new Creator Expert: Ford Mustang model is based on a 1967 Fastback. Made up of 1,470 pieces, the nostalgic muscle car comes complete with working steering, dark-blue bodywork, white racing stripes, bonnet scoop, printed Mustang grille badge, GT emblems, and five-spoke rims with road-gripping tires.

Measuring over 10 centimeters high, 34 centimeters long and 14 centimeters wide, the new set will give budding builders the chance to customize their all-American icon to their own specification thanks to a collection of optional add-ons – while retaining its instantly recognizable symbol of the Mustang pony logo.


Customization options include a supercharger, rear ducktail spoiler, beefy exhaust pipes, front chin spoiler and a nitrous oxide tank for an authentic muscle car build experience.

The authentic replica model also allows owners to store items in the trunk or lift the hood to reveal a detailed big block 390 cubic inch (6.4-liter) V8 engine with battery, hoses and air filter detailing.

The rear axle of the car can be lifted for an extra-mean look, the doors can be opened and the roof panel removed to give access to the detailed interior with classic seats, radio, working steering and a mid-console gearshift.

A printed mustang grille badge, GT emblems and a selection of license plates add the final touches to this extraordinary Lego Creator Expert model.

The Lego Creator Expert: Ford Mustang is slated to hit stores starting March 1, 2019.
