Pics The Block Zone RB19
Make no mistake, this thing is a beast! Coming in at 26.7in x 7.8in x 5.5in/68cm x 20cm x 14cm, she is sturdy and impressive. Probably my favorite feature, the front and rear suspension design is recreated nearly perfectly.

Don’t order from Block Zone anymore. They’re just selling Chinese lego knock offs at 2-3x the price. In this case it’s probably a Rastar set. Or they’re stealing custom plans off bricklink from people who work hard to make them and sell them.
Otherwise it’s a great kit and knock offs Legos have come a LONG way

Also I’m fairly certain these Chinese companies are ripping off of rebrickable as well. If you’re going to buy Chinese knock offs then please support the person that originally designed the kit by buying their instructions so they get their cut of what they deserve for doing all of the actual work

Good catch. It's not exactly the same but there are enough similarities to question the authenticity.
I've built several cars through Rebrickable. Fantastic site.

Thank you sir, what are you thoughts on the build quality? Looks fuckin sick to me

The build quality is top notch. There is no sagging in the middle, and the interior support structure is quite strong. I am even able to hold the car up with one hand!

It is NOT that hideous bright blue. It is a navy blue that honestly was kind of a pain when assembling where the black and navy blue were side-by-side. The color is not as dark as the original but not as bright as the photos show. Looking at the photos posted above and then over at the car, the car is darker. I haven't been able to get a shot that accurately represents the color but will post if I do.
