Why We Love This Deal
There’s a lot of excitement happening around McLaren right now. The Formula 1 team celebrated a massive constructors’ championship repeat earlier this month, and drivers Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri—neck and neck in the standings right now—are favorites for the drivers’ championship. On a much smaller scale, fans are turning their attention to Lego’s detailed McLaren replica kit.
The 1,400-plus-piece Lego Technic McLaren F1 set just went on sale at Walmart for $131, which is 35% off its usual $200 price. This isn’t just your average Lego set, either—it’s a true model that’s highly detailed and, though the 2022 model, still dons the iconic orange you see Norris and Piastri driving.

For those unfamiliar with Lego’s Technic lineup, it’s a collection of builds (usually vehicles) that prioritize realism, functioning parts, and challenge. This 1,434-piece McLaren build is no exception, equipped with a V6 engine that has moving pistons, suspension, and steering.
Lego’s design team also worked closely with the actual McLaren racing team to get as close to the real thing as possible, which is apparent in the small details like the sponsor stickers. Keep in mind that this kit is recommended for ages 18 and up, so it may be a little difficult for younger or inexperienced builders. After the build is complete, it makes for a great model that you can display around the house or the office as well.

What Shoppers Are Saying
With a near-perfect 4.7-star rating, shoppers are saying it’s “super easy and a real beauty to build,” “intricate,” and “perfect for F1 & Lego enthusiasts.” If you’re worried about the build being too complicated, one reviewer commented on the difficulty saying it’s “one of the best sets I’ve ever built, and as this is my first ever technic set it’s not too advanced.”
You can get the Lego Technic McLaren F1 set for $131 through Walmart right now. This deal event won’t last for long, though, so you may want to grab this set while it’s still on sale.
