I talked about a rumoured LEGO Technic + Fast and Furious partnership and they just announced it at the Nuremburg Toy Fair that is taking place right now.
The set will be launched on the 27th April 2020 but it is still a mystery as to which car from the popular series it will be based on.
Rumour has it that it may be a rendition of Brian’s (Paul Walker) 1995 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS from the very first movie.
