Build NASA History with the LEGO Technic Mars Rover Perseverance
Build a piece of history with LEGO as they take collector to Mars with the NASA Rover Perseverance construction set
Bring home space history with LEGO and their latest LEGO Technic Set. The NASA Mars Rover Perseverance comes to life with a brand new set that comes in at 1,132 pieces. The rover will measure 12.5" long, 9" high, and 9" wide, and fearfully recreates the NASA Mars Rover Perseverance in brick form. The Mars Rover Perseverance launched on July 30, 2020, with the goal to seek signs of ancient life and collect samples. LEGO made sure to stay true to its designs with 360° steering as well as its movable arm for collecting samples.
On top of that, the Mars rover has a fully articulated suspension keeping it stabilized on uneven surfaces. Just like in its original mission, NASA's Ingenuity helicopter has also tagged along! The LEGO Technic NASA Mars Rover Perseverance is priced a $99.99 and set for an August 2023 release. Pre-orders are not live, but fans can find the rover right here, as well as more LEGO space fun like Darth Vader's Mech set seen here.
