Hello, everyone! Let’s take a look at the handsome Corvette Rael today! Although the number of parts is only 2,700, the appearance and functions are very complete, let’s take a detailed study on whether it is worth starting.
【Box Photo】
The ratio of 1:8 looks very similar to Lego’s 42083 Bugatti.
There are some detailed pictures on the back.

It feels good~
There are 4 inner boxes in total, and the box feels very good.

This set of assembly steps is very unfriendly to novices, especially in step 1! Novices are strongly recommended to be careful! The difficulty of assembling the chassis is absolutely beyond imagination!
The front page contains a beautifully printed correction page (this sentence feels weird)
Transfer metal stickers and correction parts are all posted on the homepage.
One of the selling points of this set is that the bottom of the car is completely separable from the car shell! It means that capable friends can use the same chassis to make different car shells by themselves.
【Parts package】
A total of 5 steps are sub-packaged, all of which are placed in different inner boxes in order.
【Assembly process】
The most difficult part of the whole set is that this step is subcontracted. A large area of completely unfixed components is constantly being combined together, and there are many logical order problems. The difficulty of assembly is definitely hell level! It is recommended that you understand the subsequent steps before assembling. Spell in a sequence that suits you…
After completing the chassis, it means that the hell mode has been crossed
There is no difficulty in the back.
The shell is finished!
Put a beautiful metal logo sticker on it, and the handsome Corvette is done.

[Details]
There is no way for the car logo to be used across bricks.
The modeling structure sees many “just right” sizes, which shows that the designer’s use of parts is quite superb.
Is the front cover of the car domineering enough?
The shock absorber effect of the front and rear wheels:
The lines on the side of the car are extremely streamlined.
Of course the door can be opened~
The two sides of the steering wheel can be shifted, and the red lever inside can be switched to DNR mode.
The rear cover can also be lifted.
The rear of the car is also domineering! The exhaust is equipped with electroplated parts, and the quality is good.
From the bottom of the car, the structure is quite complicated. In addition, I tried the four-wheel steering function in different gears.
【Summarize】
The four-wheel steering function is ok, but it is not triggered by turning it as a wheel alone (Is it a mistake in my assembly? Not sure…)
As for the parts, they are all made of [High Brick], which feels very good. It is a pity that there are black scratches on some of the panels, and it is not clear whether there is a way to clean them.
In addition, it is rumored that this set is an internal modification of the 42083, but in fact, the 42083 only contains about 80% of the parts in this set. Conversely, this set cannot be restored to 42083 (because the parts are not enough), but some e-commerce companies seem to provide additional parts packages to serve everyone…
