LEGO Concorde Plane coming next month
The new LEGO Concorde Plane should be hitting store shelves later this fall as one of the final Icons kits of the year. As set number 10318, the upcoming creation delivers what can really only be described as the UCS treatment over to a non-Star Wars vehicle. While we don’t have the exact dimensions to share as of yet from these preliminary photos, this should stack up as one of the longest kits of the year thanks to 2,038 included bricks.
The new LEGO Concorde Plane doesn’t just look the part on the outside, but also features a fairly detailed interior for a model of this size. You won’t be able to place minifigures in its spacious interior, but there are some seats. It also seems to have some working landing gear as the box shows off a loot at the mechanics inside of the vessel.
As the LEGO Group tends to do these days, the more collectible build is complemented by a display stand and matching plaque. It positions the LEGO Concorde Plane is a more exciting position than just resting on your shelf, with a tilted design that makes it look like the vehicle is taking off.
Arriving on September 4, the new LEGO Concorde Plane is set to clock in with a $199.99 price tag. It will probably be available a tad early for LEGO VIP members as we typically see with releases that don’t hit store shelves right on the first of the month.
The Concorde is easily one of the most recognizable aircraft out there. Capable of hitting speeds of Mach 2.04 or more, the luxurious plane has room for as many as 100 passengers. And while these planes are no longer in use today, it’s at least novel to see the LEGO Group look to memorialize the historic plane with such a detailed set.
Electronicsforward’ Take
I certainly don’t have the shelf space for the new Concorde Plane, but it really is great to see the LEGO Group apply the same attention to detail as the beloved UCS Star Wars line over to another vehicle. The design really does look fantastic from these early pictures of the box, and I really can’t wait to see how much better it looks when the LEGO Group officially reveals the kit in its full glory.
