Lego gave us a lot of Mercedes this year, from the best-selling F1 to a bigger one for more expert builders, but also a very interesting Mercedes G-Class with 2891 pieces, all from the Lego Technic family.
Ther is another set that is a winner, especially during this Christmas and gift-giving season, different from all of these, because it is a set from the popular Lego Speed Champions collection. 2 × 1 interesting because it brings two of the most popular Mercedes-AMG street models in the same box: the convertible sports car Mercedes-AMG SL 63, and the Mercedes-AMG G 63Legendary 4×4 with a V8 engine. Both are part of one of the most popular Lego Speed Champions sets of this 2024, more than 700 reviews with an average of 4.7 stars on Amazon and more than 1,000 units have been sold in recent weeks,especially now that it has been reduced by 20%,bringing it to a price of €40,which is close to its historical minimum.
