Lego Volkswagen Beetle

Fans of the iconic 1960s Volkswagen Beetle are going to love this deluxe Lego kit. The box says it’s for ages 16 and up but there are definitely adults who are going to want this kit as well.

I say it’s deluxe because it has fabulous detailing. Inside the trunk is a detailed 4-cylinder, air-cooled engine. Open up the hood and you’ll see a spare tire. Remember, on the Volkswagen the hood and trunk are reversed from what we’re used to.

The doors and the roof can both be removed to reveal a beige interior with dashboard, steering wheel and tiltable front and back seats. The vehicle is surfer themed and has a detachable surf board and cooler that go on the top of the car. There’s also a beach towel and it has numbered plates, round headlights, white rims, and distinctive hub caps.
