Lego Toyota FJ 40 Baja

Egor Karshiev‘s superb classic Toyota FJ40s have appeared here before in various guises and he’s recently added another version to his garage. This is an Icon FJ, built by the same Californian resto-mod company responsible for the mighty Icon Bronco. Egor wrote to Icon for information to help him build their FJ, and the CEO himself responded! Now that’s service!

Egor’s latest FJ is, like his previous iterations, fully remote controlled thanks to LEGO’s Power Functions components, with an XL Motor providing drive to all four wheels and and Servo controlling the steering. There’s live axle suspension front and rear, opening doors and hood, and an in-built LiPo battery and Smart Brick receiver.

Egor has produced an excellent video showing what his Icon FJ can do, cleverly using the audio from Fifth Gear’s televised road test of the real car, which you can watch below, and theres lots more to see at Egor’s MOCpage – click here to make the jump.

Lego Icon Ford Bronco

Newcomer Paul Kim makes his TLCB debut with his wonderful replica of Icon’s Ford Bronco. The geniuses at the Icon resto-modifying company take classic American 4x4s and refit them for the modern world, with the latest engines, suspension, brakes, electrics and interior components. Classic looks + modern engineering = win.

Paul’s Lego version is built in the same spirit, with a gorgeous Model Team style body mounted over some proper Technic hardware. You can check out all the images of the Bronco on both MOCpages and Flickr.
