This well-crafted Lego car rendering deserves attention. Adding a historic rally winner with authentic markings plus the famous driver elevates it further. The concept comes from TOMOELL and was entered for review recently. It currently exceeds 2400 backers and aims for the 10,000 threshold. Success at that level could lead to an official set after review, though licensing factors remain.

Key elements stand out clearly: gold wheels, World Rally Blue finish, era-appropriate graphics, and a detailed roll cage. It incorporates the yellow sponsor markings from team backer 555 without the tobacco brand reference. The Subaru World Rally Team would approve.

McRae secured the 1995 WRC title as the first British winner, yet this model draws from his 1998 Impreza variant during his final Subaru season. The earlier car was a four-door with number 4, while this version shows the two-door WRC98 with large spoiler and fog light covers. The choice works well as the coupe offers better proportions. Door markings reference the 1998 Rallye Monte Carlo entry where McRae placed third with co-driver Nicky Grist.

The set includes an accurate McRae Subaru replica and driver minifigure plus extra play features. Beyond rolling wheels and opening panels, it functions as a flexible diorama. Rock formations and sand effects rearrange into three scenes: a drifting slide, an airborne jump, and a service area with jack, stands, and tool cart holding a laptop.

Lego Ideas allows anyone to submit designs for community voting. Designs hitting 10,000 votes enter review for possible production. Potential hurdles include licensing and estate approvals, yet prospects look positive here. Lego dark royal blue closely matches Subaru World Rally Blue.

Success would place it alongside prior Ideas releases like the Caterham 620R, Back to the Future DeLorean, and Ghostbusters Ecto-1. Share this project widely to gather more votes.
