Pull Back. Launch. Race
The LEGO Technic 42165 Mercedes-AMG F1 W14 E Performance Pull-Back is a small set with serious F1 attitude.
The build is quick but satisfying, and the sleek black livery instantly gives it that authentic Mercedes race-day vibe. The pull-back function is the real fun here — load it up, release, and watch it shoot across the room like it’s heading down the main straight. For a compact retired set, it’s a great little display piece and a fun desk racer for any F1 or LEGO fan.
Great Fun
An enjoyable build, although maybe tough for the 7 age group as a few tricky bits. But great satisfaction once built and this model has the pull back, so is more than just a static model. Just needs a LEGO figure driver and it would be the complete deal.
Geweldig set
Leuk om te bouwen
Leuk speelgoed
Leuk Lego Technic set voor grote en kleine kinderen.
Jarige helemaal happy
Als cadeau gekocht en aan de reactie van de jarige is te merken dat hij hier heel blij mee is
Prima
Niks aan te merken
Zeer mooie formule 1 wagen
Het eindresultaat is prachtig, maar het bouwen kan soms een pruts en wring werk zijn. Toch blijft het zeer leuk omdat alles goed in elkaar zit. Het ziet er goed uit en ondanks wat pruts en wringwerk bouwt hij ook leuk.
Fun build!
Purchased for my 5 year old’s birthday. He’s managed the 7+ regular lego with a little adult help- he tends to miss steps once it’s trickier. Like entire pages. But it’s nice to do some together. This one felt a lot trickier in comparison to regular Lego.
For those buying for younger kids: the pieces are hard to fit together and pull apart. (A thin stick is needed at times to correct mistakes.) basically, it’s very fiddly. But me and his dad have had a blast doing it with him.
We have almost finished it and so can’t comment on the play aspect of it. But it does feel sturdy.
Neither me nor my husband are Lego builders. We both found this set tricky. I wondered how many 7 year olds would be able to do this, but then remembered that most 7 year old’s brains are probably a lot sharper than mine. 🤣 and to be honest, my 5 year old showed me where some bits went when I couldn’t spot them on the diagram. So take my interpretation of the difficulty level with a pinch of salt.
I love Lego and formula 1
My family and I love Lego, and this one was no different since we also love Formula 1. It was amazing to build this car with my family. The quality of the pieces is perfect, they fit together great. The car is exactly as described on the box. The car's pull back works perfectly. It has great speed, it's very resistant, it doesn't fall apart when it hits something. The packaging is very nice and the manual is easy to understand. We simply loved it.
You won’t believe it’s Lego !
Very fun activity to do with kids. My kids loved to tell which one goes next, it took a while but it all came together perfectly. Would love to try the other one’s Lego offers. It’s durable, not so much speed, packaging was good
Really Fun Lego Set
This long awaited product came out great. It took around 45 minutes to assemble and was pretty easy to follow the instructions. It looks exactly like the box art and is pretty cool to play with. It has a pull-back feature that adds more another layer of fun and is sleek to look at. I don't know if I'd want my kids to play with it unsupervised but it's awesome enough for adults.
Throughly Enjoyed!
I love Lego Technic I have twelve sets currently and I'm obsessed! This set was fun and really easy to build and it stays together so well! I personally enjoyed building this set and I'm sure anyone who has a love for Technic would feel the same as I do! Id recommend this for any Lego Technic lover!
Lego Mercedes
Pretty cool and challenging to put together. Great toy to keep a child occupied. The package and design are very stylish. The legos are sturdy and durable. Nice car, feels good to appreciate your work once complete.
Fun, toy project!
This is such a fun project for a kid and parent to put together! It would also be great for an older kid to do alone. This car has easy instructions, and fun stickers that can be put on. It has a sturdy design which gives it a pull back to zoom off of! I love that you can leave it on a shelf for display or put away and reassemble another day!
Awesome
Hi just finished putting this together and so far this is so cute, I've never been able to try a Lego like this that is not the traditional bricks but the instructions are super clear and at the end it's a pullback car that's a F1 replica and it's awesome and at the end it's a pullback car that's a F1 replica and it's awesome
Gave & stoere auto!
Onze dochter is dol op Lego. Het maakt haar dan ook niet uit of het om een bloem of auto gaat. Bij beiden zit een uitdaging! Ze is, net als haar vader, dol op F1. Deze auto was dus echt heel erg leuk om te bouwen. Samen zijn ze gestart maar uiteindelijk zelf afgemaakt. Ze is er een mooi poosje zoet mee geweest. En dit vindt ze helemaal niet erg. Via de Lego-app heeft ze hem in elkaar gezet. Ideaal! Je kan de auto dan van alle kanten bekijken en dat per stap. De auto zelf is mooi gedetailleerd en dat was dus een mooie klus om hem te bouwen. Het plakken van de stickers was soms ff priegelen. Maar ze is er erg blij mee en hij heeft een mooi plekje op haar Lego-plankje!
Stoere racewagen
Het was voor een 7 jarige nog best een uitdaging, maar met wat hulp is het goed te doen, om deze stoere racewagen in elkaar te zetten. Deze auto is echt super realistisch, echt heel leuk voor kleine formule 1 fans.
Daarnaast kan deze auto door middel van pullback ook zelf rijden.
Er is inmiddels dan ook vele uren met deze auto gespeeld.
Prachtig
Mooie en goede bouwdoos
Perfect
Mijn ervaring is goed ik vind het een, mooie auto en hij rijd goed.
Stance is off
While this was a fun quick build the end result was strange. The front end sits very high so the stance is completely off. It doesn’t look like that in other official and customer pictures so not sure if there is something wrong with my particular build but I tripled checked instructions to verify I didn’t make an error. The nose is unrealistically high. See picture???
