DeToyz Note

This set has a different appeal from the usual LEGO Technic supercar style. The Mitsubishi Eclipse brings in that early Fast and Furious street car feeling, with enough movie references to make it recognizable without becoming too complicated. The steering, moving pistons, opening panels, and NOS bottle detail also give the build a nice balance between display value and Technic play features.
