The Aston Martin DB5 driven by James Bond in Goldfinger was refitted by Lego.
The classic sports car, which hit stores yesterday, is about one-eighth the size of the original and is made up of 1,290 pieces, reports Evo.
Lego recreated the sculpted body of the sports car, including the chrome bumpers at the front and rear of the vehicle, using a curvy brick board and arches. There's even a Lego version of the four-liter six-cylinder in-line DB5 engine under the hood, the magazine adds.
The mini-model, which costs £ 129.99, is not just a reduced version of a standard DB5. Like the 1964 James Bond movie car, which featured Sean Connery, the Lego versions feature the gadgets created by the special armament expert of the 007 Q. franchise.
The Danish Toy Company has "faithfully" recreated the "cannanto hubs", the rear-mounted bullet-proof screen and even the passenger ejection seat, says Top Gear.
There are also "false tires mounted on the axle" coming out of the center of the wheels, two machine guns mounted on the front bumper and a phone in the cockpit, says the site of the car.
The Aston Martin DB5 is the latest model to join the growing list of Lego scale models.
Last month, the company unveiled a Bugatti Chiron to build. The reduced version of the French hypercar includes 3,599 pieces and costs £ 329.99, which is significantly lower than the price of 2.1 million pounds of the actual model.
