TLCB is a Teenager!
Today is a momentous day, albeit one fraught with uncertainty, unpredictable outbursts, mood swings, and mild horror. No not Donald Trump’s Presidential comeback, but our birthday, because today The Lego Car Blog became a teenager!
Well, not quite today, as in typical teenager fashion we got up too late, but it’s better than last year when we forgot entirely.
Since our first post thirteen years (and one day) ago, nearly nine million of you have joined us here at the Online Lego Community’s most ramshackle website, with the most viewed pages of the past year being the new set reveals, the Review Library, our new A-Z of Lego Cars (plus bikes and trucks too), and a recreation of a certain Toyota Supra.
So whether you’re here for the first time or have been with us for all thirteen years, thank you for joining us. Expect more Lego-based vehicular ramblings as we enter our thirteenth year, only perhaps with worse skin, braces, and added moodiness.
TLCB Team
The A-Z of Lego Trucks
If you want to find all the best Lego models of your favourite car brand that the web has to offer, then look no further than our A-Z of Lego cars. A multitude of manufacturers from Alfa to Volvo are present, which admittedly doesn’t quite get the list to Z yet, but a few more Zastavas and we’ll be there.
We don’t stop at cars either. If you prefer your vehicles with two wheels and a predisposition to make you an organ donor, the A-Z of Lego motorbikes packs in everything from BMW to Vespa.
But what if you’re reading this from your cab in a truck stop, or you just like really big Lego vehicles? Well here at The Lego Car Blog we haven’t forgotten you… this is the A-Z of Lego Trucks!
…
DAF
We kick off our truck list not with A, but with DAF. Which at least has an A in it. Dozens of DAFs are in the Archive, with most from just a single builder. Find them all via the link above.
Freightliner
Famously flat fronted, except when they’re not, the American heavy-duty truck maker has appeared here half-a-dozen times so far. Click here to find all the brick-built Freightliners in the Archive to date.
GAZ
Mostly Soviet-era military off-road trucks designed to go where the roads end. Many of the models we’ve featured have been designed with that in mind too, being powered by a suite of motors, and you can find them all – motorised or static – by clicking here.
Hino
Toyota’s truck building subsidiary has appeared here at The Lego Car Blog only a fraction of the times of its car-making parent company, but the brick-built Hinos are excellent nonetheless. Find them here.
Isuzu
Fellow Japanese truck maker Isuzu bank rather more entries, including fire trucks, flatbeds, and of course Lego versions of their box trucks that are prolific the world over. Find them all in the Archives here.
Iveco
The fifty year old Italian truck maker’s products have featured here around a dozen times over the years. Find every Iveco to appear via the link above.
Kamaz
Back to the USSR, and a Soviet brand which surprisingly isn’t almost exclusively military. Kamaz are a modern success story too, and you can find an array of their trucks old and new in the Archives here.
Kenworth
Some of the largest and most visually stunning trucks ever built in Lego are those of the century-old American brand. If you’re into Lego trucks at the absolute peak, click this link and gawp.
Mack
Aircraft haulers, garbage trucks, movie trucks, and even official LEGO sets, all manner of Mack models have appeared here to date. Find them all via the link above.
MAN
A vast variety of MAN models reside in the Archives, with the brand’s tippers, wreckers, heavy haulers, mobile cranes, and even off-road racers all represented. Find every MAN at the link above.
MAZ
Back to the Soviet Union, which of course means that many of the Archival entries are trucks designed to blow things up. But not all of them. Find trailers of cabbage alongside ballistic missiles here.
Mercedes-Benz
As famous for their trucks as they are their cars, over one-hundred Mercedes-Benz truck images are in the Archive to date. About 80% of which are Unimogs. Find them all, including several official LEGO sets, by clicking here.
Mitsubishi
Trucks don’t get any more workday than these. As white-goods as the brand’s air-conditioners, yet just as important to everyday life in East Asia, you can find each Mitsubishi truck to appear via the link.
Peterbilt
One of the most numerous brands in the Archive, there are some spectacularly detailed creations wearing the Peterbilt logo. Lights, chrome, and even a trailer full of beer are available here.
Renault
France’s national truck maker is most famous for one particular model, named after a champagne bottle. Or an ice cream. Or a condom. Find all the Magnums (plus a few other Renault trucks too) by clicking here.
Scania
Europe’s most stylish truck brand. So we’ve picked something square from the seventies for the thumbnail… Find a huge quantity of Scanias past and present by clicking these words.
Tatra
The highest average wheel-count of any truck manufacturer in the Archives, most Lego Tatras have eight. And nearly as many electric motors. A truck-trial favourite, join the off-road fun here.
Volvo
Dozens of Volvo trucks have appeared here to date, plus a whole array of construction equipment to wear the iron logo too. Find fan-built models and official LEGO sets alike by clicking here.
Ural
Named after the mountains in their Russian homeland, most Urals in the Archive are – unsurprisingly – of a military flavour. They’re also really very good indeed. Click the link above to see them all.
ZIL
We couldn’t start with A, but thanks to ZIL we have Z in the bank! Tipper trucks, tankers, Arctic expedition vehicles, and – of course – weird Soviet military contraptions are all available here!
…
That’s Lego creations representing twenty of the top truck manufacturers from DAF to ZIL, where there are sufficient entries in the Archives (and that we could remember when writing this…).
Of course if we’ve missed the one you’re looking for you can search for any truck make or model via the search function on every page. Plus a whole lot more besides. Happy trucking!

Find My Bike in Lego
We might be a Lego Car Blog, but it’s not just vehicles of the four-wheeled variety that feature here. From the phattest Harley to the tiniest scooter, motorcycles of all shapes and sizes have been showcased over the years.
If you’ve ever wondered whether your favourite motorbike has been recreated from Danish plastic bricks, our long-suffering interns have braved the Archival Halls to help out. From BMW to Vespa, here are the top motorcycle brands they found…
…
Motorcycles
BMW
Vintage bikes, superbikes, cafe racers, and even a few official LEGO sets, every BMW Mottorad in the Archives can be found here.
Ducati
A century-old Italian icon now owned by Volkswagen, Ducatis in the Archive include an official LEGO set, life-size replica, and – of course – some spectacular superbikes. Click here to find them.
Harley-Davidson
Gangs, black leather, and more merchandising than even Ferrari manage, 120-year-old Harley-Davidson have appeared here more than any other bike brand. Choppers, coppers, and customised baggers, you can find them all via the link above.
Honda
There are more people riding Hondas right now than any other form of personal transport, with well over 100 million Super Cubs built to date alone. A few have been made from LEGO too, and they can be found, along with Monkey Bikes, Goldwings, and much more besides, by clicking here.
Kawasaki
Whilst most famous for their superbikes, Japan’s Kawasaki have only appeared here a handful of times to date, with none being their most famous product. Until a recent official LEGO set corrected that…
Yamaha
Famous for their off-road motorcycles in particular, Yamaha have appeared here numerous times with bikes, trikes, and even a few futuristic concepts. An official LEGO set joined the fan-made models in 2023, and you can find them all via the link above.
Vespa
Nothing is more Italian than a pretty girl riding a Vespa, and dozens have appeared here to date (Vespas, not pretty girls). From mini-figure to Model Team scale, plus an official LEGO set, you can find them all in the Archives via the link above.
…
There you have it, from BMW to Vespa, all of the motorcycle brands to have been recreated from our favourite plastic blocks! Other bike brands with fewer entries in the Archives have of course featured here too, and you can find them (plus much more besides) via the Search box on every page. And if it’s brick-built cars you’re after, you can take a look at our full A-Z of car manufacturers by clicking here.
From Alfa to Volvo
Over the past few weeks, our interns have been sent into TLCB Archives to extract all of the creations by brand that have appeared here, in over a decade of writing nonsense about Lego cars.
Over 10,000 media items and a few mildly-medicated interns later, and the result is a brand new directory linking straight to the most popular car companies by volume to appear on this website.
A to Z of Lego Cars
Click on the link above to take a look through all of the sufficiently-built car companies to appear here so far, from Alfa Romeo to Volvo. Which admittedly doesn’t quite get the list to Z yet, but a few more Zastavas and we’ll be there.
Find My Car in Lego | S to Z
It’s the final chapter of the Find My Car in Lego series, as Part 4 takes us from the letter S to the end of the alphabet. As with Parts 1 to 3, we’re focussing on the most frequently featured car brands, which admittedly omits most of the Soviet and Chinese weirdness that monopolises the final few letters of the alphabet. You guys aren’t building many Xpengs, Zotyes or Zeekrs yet…
However fear not, because there are some great manufacturers in the final quarter of the alphabet. And UAZ. Take a look…
…
S to Z
Skoda
Once-derided marque from behind the Iron Curtain, now a competent mainstream arm of the Volkswagen empire. Which means today it’s exceptionally boring. Fortunately Lego builders seem to prefer making the rubbish but interesting cars of Skoda-past.
Subaru
Kei-trucks, rear-wheel-drive sports cars, and – of course – all-wheel-drive performance saloons. Find WRXs galore (plus the rest) by clicking these words.
Suzuki
Suzuki have made all sorts of vehicles, but it’s their pint-sized 4x4s that seem to have captured Lego builders’ imaginations most frequently. Find all the brick-built Samurais, Jimnys, and Vitaras here.
Tatra
Today famed for their off-road trucks, Czech manufacturer Tatra also once made truly ground-breaking cars. Find them (in a sea of their awesome heavy-duty trucks) by clicking here.
Tesla
The brand that brought EVs to the masses, and the one with the most insane fans of any manufacturer. Ludicrous speed, appalling quality, and a share price more volatile than Kanye West, click here to find every brick-built Tesla to appear. All have better panel gaps than the real thing.
Toyota
From one end of the quality scale to the other, almost 170 Toyota images have appeared to date. Sedans, 4x4s, racing cars, pick-up trucks, sports cars, vans, and a certain ’10-second’ orange Supra…
UAZ
Soviet 4x4s, vans, and small trucks. All are very ugly, many are very capable, and there are some excellent Lego versions to be found in the Archive.
Volkswagen
Humungous global conglomerate responsible for tens of millions of fantastically dull hatchbacks, crossovers and SUVs. Which is perhaps why it’s VW’s Beetles, buses and beach buggies that populate the Archives. Find them all, including official LEGO sets, by clicking here.
Volvo
Glorious slabs of rectangular Swedish magnificence, there’s probably no car more suited to LEGO than an ’80s Volvo. Over a hundred, including the trucks, buses and pieces of construction equipment that have also worn the Volvo logo, can be found here.
…
That wraps up Part 4 of Find My Car in Lego, and with it the series, much to the relief of our researchers. We’ve covered every manufacturer whose models have been recreated in brick form in sufficient numbers, and you can find Parts 1 (A to F), 2 (G to L), and 3 (M to R) via these links.
Some surprisingly well-known brands didn’t make the cut, including Saturn, Seat, Talbot, and Vauxhall in this final part alone, each with just a single entry in the Archives at the time of publication. Of course there are loads of other oddities in the Archives too, and you can find them all plus much more besides via the Search box on every page.
And if you don’t manage to find your car, we’d love to see you build it.
Find My Car in Lego | M to R
A catacomb of tenuous links, pointless vehicular facts, and wildly inappropriate Your Mom jokes, The Lego Car Blog Archives can be a forbidding place. Fortunately we have a succession of interns here at TLCB Towers, who – unable to decline our research requests – are routinely sent into the labyrinth to retrieve past posts. And only some of whom are now in counselling.
Today we can share Part 3 of the fruits of their endeavours, Find My Car in Lego, with the most frequently appearing car brands from M to R sorted into the neat list below. If you’ve ever wondered what your car looks like in Lego form, now you can find out!
…
M to R
Mazda
Japan’s left-field choice has appeared here a number of times over the years. Almost all of those times were RX-7s. Find them all by clicking here.
McLaren
Nearly one hundred McLaren images have appeared here to date, from home built F1s and F1 racing cars, to official LEGO sets, and even a couple of 1:1 life-size replicas of McLaren’s newest supercars.
Mercedes-Benz
The world’s first motorcar, supercars, trucks, Unimogs, SUVs, Formula 1 racers, Unimogs, vans, sedans, and Unimogs… over 170 images have appeared to date. Almost half are Unimogs.
Mini
First a model and now a marque, Minis of all shapes and sizes have appeared over the years, more recently including official LEGO sets. A few have even been driven via an armchair, string, and mop arrangement…
Mitsubishi
Boring trucks and boring cars… and a few rather more interesting ones. Plus Mitsubishi didn’t just build things with four wheels; several models in the Mitsubishi archive are rather more airborne than a Canter box truck.
Nissan
…and its forebear Datsun, have appeared here countless times over the years. Pick-ups, sedans, sports cars, and – of course – a whole host of GT-Rs.
Pagani
There are probably as many Lego Paganis as there are the real thing. Those to appear here include huge Technic Supercars, beautifully detailed Model Team replicas, and even an official LEGO set.
Peugeot
Fire-spitting rally cars, Dakar-conquering buggies, Le Mans racers, and… ugly grey sedans. Peugeot have made them all, and you can find every Lego version in the archive by clicking here.
Plymouth
Long-dead American car maker. The archive is packed with muscle cars, cop cars, and a car with a taste for human blood. Find them all via the link above.
Pontiac
Long-dead American car maker. On-screen highlights include Breaking Bad, Knight Rider, and Smokey and the Bandit, whilst more than a few models in the archive feature a certain signature giant flaming bird motif.
Porsche
Hundreds of Porsche models have featured here to date, including supercars, racing cars, official LEGO sets, tractors, and over two hundred 911 images alone. See them all via the link above.
Renault
Historic French vehicle manufacturer, with trucks, tractors, vans, Formula 1 winners, hot hatchbacks, tanks, and sedans all appearing in Lego form. Click here to take a look at everything to wear the Renault badge.
Rolls Royce
The best cars in the world, and their engines have powered a few iconic machines too. Find them all – including our pink six-wheeled favourite – in the Rolls-Royce archive here.
…
That concludes Part 3 of the Find My Car in Lego series, taking us from Mazda to Rolls-Royce. You can revisit prior instillments Part 1 (A to F) and Part 2 (G to L) via the links in this paragraph, plus of course you can be as specific as you like by typing your desired make or model into the Search box available on every page. If you can think of it, it’s probably been built from Lego. Next time, S…
Find My Car in Lego | G to L
Have you ever wondered what your car would look like in Lego form? Well you might just be able to find it, with a little help from The Lego Car Blog Archives.
We’re back with Part 2 of the Find My Car in Lego series, this time looking at the most frequently built brands from G to L.
If your car (or one you’re interested in seeing Legoifiyed – What? It is a word) wears a brand from G to L, there’s a good chance you’ll be able to find it below!
…
G to L
GAZ
These Soviet era trucks and cars have appeared far more frequently than you might think. We also earned our record for the most negative comments received due one GAZ post in particular. Find it and the rest here.
Honda
Sports cars, economy cars, kei cars, Formula 1 cars, and humble mopeds, they’ve all appeared here by the dozen. Click here see everything we’ve published to wear the famous ‘H’.
Hummer
We hate Hummer. But that hasn’t stopped Lego versions from appearing here. Click these words and shout “U.S.A!” or “Freedom!” or some other nationalistic nonsense as you do.
Hyundai
Only a few Hyundais are in the archive so far, which is bit weird considering they’re one of the world’s largest manufacturers. With cars like the N Vision 74 pictured here, expect many more to come.
Isuzu
Trucks (mostly), and one of the most common vehicular sights across Asia. Find all the Lego versions to appear here by clicking these words.
Jaguar
An orderly queue of these British cars can be found in the archive, with even a few official LEGO sets now joining the fan-made models. Click here to join it.
Jeep
From wartime Willys to the latest Wrangler, around a hundred Jeep images are in the archive to date. Many of the models are motorised too, so you can recreate off-road adventures in miniature in your own back yard.
Koenigsegg
There are probably as many brick-built models of Sweden’s hypercar as there are the real thing. You can find those that have featured on this site by clicking here. There’s even an official LEGO set.
Lada
Russia’s most popular car brand has appeared here numerous times over the years. Resolutely rectangular LEGO bricks do seem to fit Lada’s aesthetic rather well…
Lamborghini
The products of Italy’s maddest supercar maker have been recreated countless times in brick form. One of the most popular brands in the archive, find all the Lego Lamborghinis to feature by clicking here.
Lancia
The most interesting back-catalogue of any car maker, matched only by their dismalness today. Unsurprisingly, it’s old Lancias that have captured the imagination of builders. Find their classics here.
Land Rover
The Best 4x4xFar. Except the Evoque Convertible, obviously. Beautiful replicas mix it with official LEGO sets. Click here to find them all.
Lexus
‘The Japanese Mercedes’, as one famous fictional radio DJ put it. They’re better than that though, and you can find all the models from Toyota’s luxury brand that have appeared here to date by clicking these words.
Lotus
From sports cars to movie stars, with even an official LEGO set thrown in. Why you really should take a look in the Lotus archive however, is for the historic Formula 1 racers. They are magnificent.
…
That’s the most frequently built car brands* from G to L. If you’d like to check out the previous A to F list you can do so here, and of course you can use the Search box on every page to be as specific as you like. Next time, M…
*If you’re wondering why Kia isn’t on the list, us too. The Lego Community; get on it.
Find My Car in Lego | A to F
Have you ever wondered what your car (or a car you really like… or even dislike for that matter) would look like in Lego form? Well The Lego Car Blog is here to help!
Whilst our Archives, rumoured to be inhabited by a band of long-lost and now-ferrel Elves, are a dark and bewildering place, you can access them digitally via the search box on every page. And fortunately for us, we have an intern, who we can send into the archival catacombs to retrieve past vehicular curiosities. Thus one mildly-traumatised intern later we can today commence a brand new series; Find My Car in Lego!
With so many vehicle brands past and present, this would be a very long post if we highlighted them all, so instead we’re going to focus on the most popular brands, segmented alphabetically, beginning with A to F…
…
A to F
Alfa Romeo
Like that girl you dated in college, Alfas are interesting, beautiful, and will cost you dearly. Click here to take a look at everything to wear the famous shield, from racing cars to aircraft. There’s even a link to Kim Kardashian’s bottom.
Audi
Vorsprung Durch Technik. Alongside plenty of Technic Audis to peruse, the Audi archive includes a few official LEGO sets, and whole load of quattros. Click here to get three feet from the car in front.
Austin
They didn’t just make Minis. From black cabs to mid-engined rally cars, put on your best British accent and take a look at everything to wear the Austin badge here.
Bentley
Once maker of the ‘fastest lorries in the world’, and now cars for footballers, you can pretend you don’t have a mortgage by clicking these words.
BMW
Now known for making the ugliest cars in existence, our archives are packed with brick-built machines wearing the firm’s roundel. Sedans, racing cars, motorcycles, and even oddities like this, you can find them all here.
Bugatti
The world’s fastest cars have, somewhat unsurprisingly, been recreated countless times in Lego form. Official LEGO Bugatti sets, and even a drivable life-size replica join the fan-built models.
Buick
From land yachts to hot rods, there’s a wide variety of Buicks in the archive. One’s even pedal powered. Click here to find them all.
Cadillac
More land yachts. And more than a few movie cars, from Ecto-1 to Mad Max. You can check out everything in the archives to wear the Cadillac badge here.
Chevrolet
Pick-up trucks, day vans, taxi cabs, hot rods, and – naturally – several little red Corvettes. There are dozens of Chevys of all types in the archives and you can find them all here.
Citroen
Really very French indeed, older Citroens have captured the imagination of countless of Lego builders. Find their creations by the dozen by clicking here.
Daihatsu
It’s not just supercars, Americana and quirky European classics here at The Lego Car Blog. Nope, tiny Japanese boxes feature too, and you can find every time Daihatsu have appeared by clicking here.
Dodge
Dodge have made all sorts of boring cars over the years, but for some reason 90% of those in our archives seem to be of the muscle variety. Click these words to see them all.
Fiat
Objects of both joy and derision, not least due to all the terrible Eastern European cars they spawned, you can find every Fiat – from official LEGO sets to Abarth spin-offs – by clicking here.
Ferrari
Probably the most popular brand* in the archive, with over three-hundred images tagged. Official sets, Formula 1 cars, classics, and supercars have been built in their hundreds.
Ford
*If it wasn’t for Ford, with nearly one-hundred Mustang images alone. Which has allowed us to make countless jokes about Mustang owners, and for that we are grateful. Find them, and the hundreds of non-Mustangs also wearing the Ford oval, by clicking here.
FSO
Communist Poland’s answer to Lada. And if that sounds like a recipe for crap cars, you’d be right. Find them all here.
…
If your car’s make isn’t within this post and you don’t want to wait until we reach it alphabetically, you can of course find any vehicle that may have appeared here via the aforementioned search box. Simply input some words and see what’s returned! Next time, G…
How To Start a World-Famous Lego Site
Have you ever wondered how to start a world-famous Lego site? Well, us too. But we can tell you how we started this one, and that might set you on the path to something a whole lot bigger. Maybe even world-famous.
Some say it’s a desperately tenuous use of the word ‘professional’, others that we were simply light on content this week and needed something to post. We say, if you’re interested in learning how you could create a Lego site like this one (but probably better), then take a look at the sixth entry in the ‘Become a Lego Professional’ series. Because this time, it’s us!*

2023 | Year in Review
2024 is just around the corner, and The Lego Car Blog, lodged like a piece of fluff in the internet’s belly-button, has clung on for another year!
Sadly the Queen didn’t though, and thus 2023 saw the coronation of a new king in our home nation, alongside the official end of the COVID-19 pandemic, a titanic submarine implosion, and a Chinese balloon that was just monitoring the weather, honest.
It was also the year when President Putin was usurped as the World’s Biggest Dick (ironically) by Hamas (although Benjamin Netanyahu is surely challenging that now), and in which the head of a national oil company chaired the United Nations Climate Change Conference. Which means we’re still all going to cook or drown, to the surprise of absolutely no-one.
In fact 2023 was the hottest year ever recorded for the earth’s surface temperature, but was it hot for The Lego Car Blog too? Let’s find out…
Stats
After dropping back into six-figure views from our high of over a million a few years ago, we’re almost exactly level from 2022 to 2023. Our viewing figures are directly linked to the amount of content we publish, and we’ve realised that – impressive though seven-figures annually are – we’re much too lazy to keep that pace going. Hopefully we’re publishing enough to keep you all interested (337 posts in 2023), whilst ensuring there’s balance away from writing.
The Lego Car Blog’s readers came from almost every country on earth, led by the U.S, Germany, U.K, Netherlands and Canada, whilst fourteen countries supplied just a single visitor. The most popular post of the year was ‘That’ Toyota Supra, with the Review Library, our 2024 Speed Champions preview, and the Technic 42154 Ford GT set preview also pulling in big numbers.
What’s Next?
If the online Lego Community keeps creating amazing vehicles, then we’ll keep publicising them! We might also finally complete Master MOCers Series II, with just two spaces remaining after Thirdwigg joined the Hall of Fame in 2023, and we’ll probably try to review a few things too.
We continue to be amazed just how many of you want to read the nonsense we write, and if your views and clicks earn a little revenue that we can donate to those more deserving than we are, then that’s all the motivation we need.
Thank you for visiting, if you’d like to get in touch with us you can either leave a comment or send us a message via the Contact Page, and we’ll see you in 2024.
TLCB Team
Merry Christmas!
It’s the night before Christmas
And all through these pages
No Elves are stirring
‘Cos they’re shut in their cages
The Lego Car Blog Team
Will be off getting fatter
So spend some time off the ‘net
With the people that matter
We’ll be back in a few days, until then, we wish you all a very Happy Christmas : )

Mechanical Master MOCer
You thought we’d forgotten about the Master MOCers Series hadn’t you? Well, um… we had. But no longer! Because a builder who has appeared here so frequently over the years he’s got his own section in our Archives has become the latest builder to join the Master MOCers Series 2 Hall of Fame!
Kyle Wigboldy, better known as Thirdwigg, creates some of the best all-mechanical Technic models anywhere in the world right now, and they’re being built all around the world too, as he also produces top quality building instructions to accompany them. Best of all, many of these are downloadable for free (a hundred TLCB points to Thirdwigg!).
From supercars to off-road trucks, and everything in-between, Thirdwigg’s enormous back-catalogue is filled with superb mechanically-driven creations, and you can find out what makes him tick in our 9th Master MOCers interview of Series 2.
You can read Thirwigg’s LEGO-building story via the link below, where you might find a few models that you’d like to build for yourself at home!
Master MOCers [Series 2] | Thirdwigg
