Craig Callum is a known gearhead. If you haven't heard of him, we should warn you now: he may be living your dream.
 

Callum is the design manager of Lego's Speed Champions sets. He went to university for automotive design, and has said that working at Lego has essentially just put him full circle, as Lego toys helped him decide as a child that car design was for him.
 

We think Callum has done a fantastic job translating the sleek, perfectly-proportioned Mercedes-AMG GT into the boxy, interlocking vernacular of Lego design. We love the interchangeable front ends!
 

As far as we can tell, these Lego kits are still available for sale. Even if the real-life Mercedes-AMG GT is out of reach or impractical to keep in your garage, you can add the model to your Lego fleet. There are some other awesome cars in the Speed Champions lineup, and you can even get a Mercedes-AMG Petronas Formula One Team kit.
