A crack team of TLCB Elves were recently fired – by way of the office catapult – over The LEGO Company’s perimeter wall. Their mission; to uncover the brand new LEGO Technic sets for 2026. And not get eaten by the guard dogs.

Two have already returned (and their ‘Fast & Furious’ finds can be seen in our set reveal here), and today we have another. And it’s even more modified than the ‘Fast & Furious’ pair. This is the LEGO Technic 42236 Custom Garage Ford Mustang GT.

Aimed at ages 10+ and constructed from just under 1,000 pieces, 42236 is an interesting idea (and possibly sub-brand*) that allows builders to modify their model with a range of styling components, including wider arches, a scooped hood, wings and splitters. Which explains the higher piece count and raised price (£80 / $100 / €90) than we’re used to with other sets of this scale.

It’s also the set for you if you like stickers, because 42236 is covered in them. Wheels, grille, body panels, rear lights… they’re all decals. And whilst that does create an interesting colour scheme, we’re kinda at the point where the base car could be anything and LEGO simply change the manufacturer it represents by altering the stickers that come with it.

Working steering and a V8 under the swappable hood do feature though, and you can get your hands on the new 42236 Custom Garage Ford Mustang GT when it arrives this summer.

*We’re eagerly anticipating further Custom Garage sets that represent the modifying scene here in TLCB’s home nation.
