Gaze over a grey baseplate and you’ll notice the word “LEGO” is stamped on every single stud. Zoom in on the headlights of a LEGO Mini and you’ll be able to make out individual part numbers and copyright symbols. The softly-scratched surfaces of the LEGO bricks (particularly clear pieces like headlights and windscreens) are incredibly authentic close up it’s far more in line with the look of The LEGO Movie and its follow-ups than Traveller’s Tales’ more stylised LEGO-branded games over the years. The LEGO looks quite remarkable, too – especially under bright sunlight. LEGO Speed Champions remains in sync with Playground’s previous work with Hot Wheels – just like the enormous, highway-width orange tracks of Hot Wheels Island, the LEGO bricks here have been scaled up to suit the real world, as if some billionaire lost a bet to a 10-year-old in the toy aisle.
