Lego has unveiled its latest creation, the Lego Polaroid OneStep SX-70 Camera set. This set consists of 516 pieces and is a replica of the iconic Polaroid camera. It will surely bring joy to both Lego fans and photography enthusiasts.
The Lego Polaroid camera features the same vibrant spectrum of colors on the front as the original. It also includes an exposure compensation dial and a functioning viewfinder. But this Lego version offers much more than just a nostalgic display piece – it provides a fully immersive building experience and is a great conversation starter.
One of the main highlights of this set is the inclusion of the ability to build a Lego Polaroid Time-Zero Supercolor SX-70 Land Film pack, as well as three illustrated Polaroid photos featuring the inventor of Polaroid, Edwin H. Land. These photos can be placed in the Lego camera through hinged film doors and taken out using the red button on the shutter, adding a touch of magic to the whole experience.
While one could argue that a vintage Polaroid camera could be obtained for a lower price, the charm of this Lego version lies in its intriguing design and the joy of building it. Lego fan and the original concept creator, Marc Corfmat (Minibrick Productions), shared his excitement about bringing his idea to life. The Lego designers paid attention to the smallest details, including the iconic Polaroid rainbow arrow, which is created using a stack of 1×6 side plates and inverted colorful 1×3 tiles held together by thin Lego tubes.
The Lego Polaroid OneStep SX-70 camera set is available for pre-order at $79.99 USD/£69.99 GBP. Shipping is set to begin on January 1, 2024. So, if you are a photography enthusiast or a Lego lover, don’t miss out on this joyful combination of nostalgia and creativity.
