Lego has offered plenty of building kits designed to look like classic cars, but its upcoming release goes back more than 100 years. Starting March 1, 2026, you can order the Lego Icons version of the 1913 Ford Model T.
The Ford Model T is an important part of American automotive history, responsible for making cars accessible to the masses. Efficient moving assembly line production drove the purchase price down over time, which only helped sales: Between 1908 and 1927, Ford sold more than 15 million “Tin Lizzies.” To do such a historically significant car justice, the Lego Icons team consulted Ted Ryan, Ford’s heritage brand manager and archivist.
According to Ryan, Senior Model Designer Ann Healy’s “research was very thorough, and her questions to us were very specific. Most of the changes we recommended were subtle, like a different angle to the fenders, confirming the Ford script was without quotes, and a single lantern on the back of the car.” Ryan went so far (literally) as to fly to Billund, Denmark to show the Icons crew 1913 Model T artifacts, photographs, and brochures that would better inform their build.
The end result of all that research, traveling, coordination, and refinement is a 1,060-piece set that forms a black Model T with gold accents, large wheels with white rubber tires, and a folding black fabric roof. The hood panels can be lifted up to reveal a Lego-fied 177ci I-4. The Model T even has functional steering and a gas tank under the seat’s removable bottom section.
If you can’t wait to add the Lego Icons Ford Model T to your desk or shelf of collectibles, don’t worry — Lego has made it available on its website by the time you read this. The price for all this Lego maniac and car nerd fun? $129.99.
