Every experienced LEGO MOC'er knows thats it gets harder to achieve the correct shape and details with small scale models.

If you take a look at the original vehichle you will see how greatly this MOC is shaped for its size.

This awesome 7-studs wide Bugatti Chiron model was built and shared by flickr.com user and MOC'er Gerald Cacas. Every LEGO fan knows how hard it is to built realistic models in small scales and Gerald Cacas did a wonderful job on this one. The usage of flexible hose pieces connecting with lever pieces a very creative idea. this car even has two seats like the real cars unlike the official set version 75878 which has only one seat. The MOC has openable doors, hood and even a detailed engine inside.

I think the back of a Porsche 911 RSR couldn't be built better for this scale.  the curvature achieved on top of the car is amazing as well.

Andrea: First of all thanks for considering me as one of the best MOC’ers in the world… My name is Andrea Lattanzio also known as Norton74 in the international LEGO community. I’m Italian and I live in Milan with my Spanish wife and two children. I work in the communication department of an Italian non profit organization. I’m a petrolhead and I like especially classic cars, motorcycles and in general vintage stuff, toys and style. I also love design and graphic design.


K: Do you remember the day when you got your first LEGO set? Which set was it? And How old were you when you started playing with LEGO bricks?

A: Honestly I don’t remember when I got my first LEGO set, I remember playing with my older brother’s seventies LEGO City and Technic sets. I started playing with LEGO bricks when I was four or five years old. My very first memories were also linked to Fabuland theme that I really was fond of (I still own a lot of characters).

Mercedes-Benz SLR Mclaren 722 Edition by Alexander Paschoaletto

LEGO fan and MOCpages user Alexander Paschoaletto who is known for his great brick-built car models shared this beautiful Mercedes-Benz model in his page. The car is smaller than the Technic scale cars and larger than the usual creator size cars. It is approximately at the same scale with the official Ferrari F40 set and the builder used the windshield piece from that set. The detailing both for interior and exterior is amazing. There are lots of features on this car. The hood, the trunk and the doors can be opened. Even the seats are adjustable. I also liked that the Mercedes-Benz sign in front of the car was made with a steering wheel piece instead of a sticker. The look of the car is very detailed and resembles the real car very much with all the signature textures and curvature.
