Your Lego minifigures have a slick new ride.
Lego shrunk the Mini Cooper Mk VII into an even tinier model that's fit for a whole minifigure family. The brick version of the auto industry's cutest little car reflects the original's character with a British racing green exterior, white roof, racing stripes and white wing mirrors.
The tiny car also features neat hidden details, like a brick replica of the car's engine under the hood, a spare tire compartment and a picnic basket and blanket set.
In recent years, members of the Lego fan community have called for a brick version of the Mini Cooper, even submitting homemade set concepts on Lego's Ideas website. This isn't Lego's first forray into classic car territory -- the toy company released a brick Volkswagen T1 Camper Van in 2011.
To announce this tiny addition to the Lego family, the Lego Group created a short tongue-in-cheek preview video reminiscent of cheesy car commercials.
