LEGO Set - 10265 - Creator Expert - Ford Mustang

RETIRED

I marked the damaged box (see photo 5). The sticker has caused a little damage, no crack or anything..

The Ford Mustang LEGO set 10265 from the 1960s consists of 1,470 pieces, comes with a 212-page building manual, and was released in 2019 as a Creator Expert set. Based on the license plate, this version of the Ford Mustang is modeled after the 1967 GT Fastback and features the same 4-speed manual transmission, four-wheel drive, and a 2.4-liter V8 engine. The set comprises the classic Ford Mustang GT350, affectionately called "Shelby," with five-spoke wheels, of which the first is the original front-wheel-drive design and four-speed manual transmission.


The LEGO Creator Ford Mustang has a dark blue body with white racing stripes, a hood, and a printed Mustang grille badge.
The kit includes optional modifications such as a supercharger, a rear ducktail spoiler, and a nitrous oxide tank.
The interior is accessible by removing the roof panel or opening the doors, making the seats, radio, steering wheel and gear lever visible.
It is a recreation of the GT Fastback from the 1967 model year, but LEGO does not specify the actual year of manufacture, only that it is a model from the 1960s.
The accompanying 200-page manual provides information about the development of the car, with facts about its venerable history.

The LEGO Creator Expert 10265 Ford Mustang is an excellent set. The color is phenomenal and the size of the completed model is perfect for display or play, and the building experience, although in some of the internal, complex parts only mildly labor-intensive, is overall an excellent balance between smart LEGO design and an authentic Ford Mustang experience.
