LEGO Creator Expert James Bond Aston Martin DB5 (10262) Official Reveal

After all the teasing via social media, and an unintentional reveal via a German automobile fan site, LEGO has now pulled back the veil from its next top secret set in tribute to the world’s classiest secret agent of all time. The LEGO Creator Expert James Bond Aston Martin DB5 (10262) set takes its cue from 007’s iconic 1960’s sports car that comes fully-loaded with all the accessories that a suave secret agent needs. This set comes in at a total of 1,290 pieces and is slated to be released on August 1 retailing for USD $150. For those who are anxiously waiting if the set will come with a LEGO James Bond minifigure, I’m sorry to say that it doesn’t. I’m not really sure about the reason behind it, but I guess this is somehow in line with LEGO Creator Expert’s long-standing tradition with its vehicles subtheme which does not include any relevant minifigures.

Check out this trove of official images of the LEGO Creator Expert James Bond Aston Martin DB5 (10262) set, followed by its special introductory video.
