To celebrate a friend’s significant birthday, I wanted to gift something truly unique – a Lego replica of his car. While Lego’s Speed Champions series boasts real-world cars that are top-tier and rare, the series hadn’t featured the Mazda MX-5. Recognizing the special significance of this car, I decided to take matters into my own hands. As I embarked on the journey of crafting my own version, I encountered some challenges in the build process. Fortunately, Rebrickable came to the rescue, offering the perfect blueprint for my friend’s car. The next steps involved recoloring and customizing the build in Stud.io, creating stunning renders, edit instructions and designing custom packaging. After printing, some folding and gluing, the personalized Lego bricks masterpiece was packaged and ready to be presented.
