That headline made me think Lego made a Concorde model capable of supersonic flight. As if Lego Technic had really upped their game. Needless to say, I am disappointed.
LEGOs are public domain by the way, their patents expired and there’s a fair few similar quality brick manufacturers, such as Sembo. So unless you really want to avoid Chinese manufacturers (which I don’t believe LEGO uses) it’s a viable option and a lot cheaper for little quality loss. Many have very interesting kits, especially for licenses LEGO has not touched yet.
