After a one day hiatus, the vehicle streak returns!
That's 186 pieces? From 2014? Those tires must have cost a premium.
I don't see any nitrogen-infused racing snails,do you?
Interesting alternate models on this one. Sort of makes me wish I'd picked this one up.
Join the Quad Sqaud and Max Out your Turbo!
Well it certainly is a quad... and one of the alt builds is certainly turbo!

It has quite large pieces too.

There's four of them. They're inside the tires.

I saw that as “estrogen” at first.
I’m also seeing that a shocking number of sets are ones I've never seen in my life. Especially pre-2015 stuff.

Nor any 8-bit racers trying to take over another video game
My experience with this one is that I once bought one from a flea market. Boxed. I had no intention of opening it, so I eventually sold it. I have more experience with this set's box than with this set itself.
Looks decent I guess.
A great little Mike Psiaki set... if not quite as memorable as some of his others!
'I'm going Turbo!'
(I'm still angry we didn't get any Wreck-It Ralph sets for either film)
I remember seeing this in the catalogs and I still want it to this day. Lol

To be fair, it would have been a licensing nightmare. They could just go with the original cast and locations but there would definitely be a certain sense of presence absent from the sets.
Or maybe they could just do a one-off set that's just the Fix-it Felix Jr. building, idk.

There was one on Ideas, but I don't know how far it got. If it had made it all the way, I'd definitely have gotten it, unless it was just too expensive or big.
Anyone know if one of the old Technic figures would fit on this correctly? Or is the scale off?
