Knockoff Lego MINI Cooper

I wanted to give everyone a heads up that there is a knockoff Lego MINI for sale on Amazon right that is pretty cool. I haven't touched knockoff Legos since going to a friend's house in the 90s, and they have come a long way! The instructions were spot on, and the pieces look nearly identical to Lego technic pieces. 2 pieces had some minor remnants from manufacturing, but they cleaned up in a couple seconds.





Note that this thing is BIG. Here are some comparisons with the official large Lego Mini, the Playmobil Mini, and the small Lego Mini.

The only real ding is that the decals that come with it are pretty low quality and kind of transparent/hard to see. I may end up pulling them off.

The instruction manual says it also comes in red and that there's a version that comes with an electric motor, but I haven't seen those online anywhere.

In any case, here is the listing on Amazon if you're interested. https://a.co/d/3cCaREM
