Take a look around. These days, we see people on smartphones. Faces glued to small screens. Parents on laptops. Kids on phones. Babies on iPads. We’re living in a connected world, yet we couldn’t be more disconnected. We talk, but with our fingers. We look with our eyes, but we see only pixels. It’s a little sad, to be honest, but that’s the reality now. Having said that, there’s hope yet! Shell hopes to change that with the much-anticipated Shell V-Power LEGO Collection, now in Malaysia. A way to spend quality time with our friends and family again. To build together, one block at a time.
Blocks of inspiration
LEGO collectibles need no introduction. Since 1932, the iconic LEGO brick has played a key part in children’s growth and development, through creative play and imagination.
There’s no denying, LEGO blocks have played a big part of my growing years too. The awesome thing is, I have so many friends, now adults, who are still avid LEGO builders and fans today. Shows how impactful LEGO collectibles are on our lives.
Let’s go!
So talking about LEGO collectibles, the exclusive new Shell V-Power LEGO Collection is here in Malaysia, finally. The much-anticipated collection features a range of Ferrari collectibles, made out of… you guessed it, LEGO bricks.
The collection is a collaboration between Ferrari and the LEGO Group – introducing six new models including four iconic Ferrari cars and other minifigures:
- Ferrari F12berlinetta
- Ferrari 512 S
- Ferrari F138
- Ferrari 250 GTO
- Shell Station with Shell Scientist LEGO minifigure
- Finish Line and Podium with Scuderia Ferrari Engineer LEGO minifigure
Just so you know, the Shell Station is modelled after the one at Fiorano Circuit, Scuderia Ferrari’s private racetrack in Maranello.
If that isn’t enough, two special-edition collectibles are being thrown into the mix as well – a Shell Tanker built entirely out of LEGO bricks, and a special Collector’s Case.
Pull it back, watch it fly
The collectible range is a perfect showcase of Shell’s 60-year Technical Partnership with Ferrari, a relationship that is deeply ingrained in motor racing.
Like the previous Shell V-Power LEGO Collection, the Ferrari models feature a special micro-propulsion mechanism. Shell and LEGO Group collaborated on the unique mechanism that took more than 18 months to develop.

It remains the smallest pull-back motor ever produced by the LEGO Group, making the Shell V-Power LEGO Collection extra unique.
