LEGO has partnered with Polaroid for a new LEGO IDEAS: Polaroid OneStep SX-70 Camera set.
The model is made up of 516 pieces and the camera features a working viewfinder, the iconic Color Spectrum, exposure compensation dial and a shutter button to load and eject three illustrated ‘photos’. Alongside the camera and photos, the set also includes a buildable Polaroid Time-Zero Land Film pack.
Available now, the set was originally conceived by LEGO fan Marc a.k.a. Minibrick Productions. He said: “The OneStep took a little over a month from design to completion. I actually started designing it while on vacation in France since I couldn’t wait to build it!
“I’ve always loved the design of the Polaroid OneStep. It’s incredibly iconic and shows up everywhere!”
