LEGO Ideas – The Ultimate Tour Contest!

There must be a street, or place you’ve dreamed of riding an awesome Ducati through? To celebrate the upcoming release of the #42107 LEGO Technic Ducati Panigale V4 R superbike (see press-release here: LEGO Technic Ducati Panigale V4 R Superbike Coming!), the LEGO Ideas team wants to see where you would take your bike. It could be a real location, or somewhere you make up, and you don’t have to be on your own! As the set is not yet available, you can build your own bike from LEGO Technic elements and/or LEGO bricks and your scenery can be built out of LEGO bricks and/or Technic elements. Details below.

The contest will consist of three phases: 1.) Submission Phase – Build and submit your entry before July 13th, 2020 at 6:00 a.m. EST. 2.) Judging Phase – Judges from the LEGO Technic team and Ducati treview the entries and choose the winners by July 27th, 2020. 3.) Winners Announcement – The grand prize winner and two runner up winners will be announced on LEGO Ideas no later than August 4th, 2020.

You can enter the contest by building your submission using LEGO bricks or a digital building tool like LEGO Digital Designer. Take up to five photos of your creation and submit them to the contest. (Make sure to show off all angles and any features or functions of your creation.) Add a title and short description, and upload your entry to the contest using the blue Submit Your Entry button on the contest entry page.

The usual contest rules apply, like you must be 13-years to enter the contest, the submission must be your own creations, and that only official LEGO elements can be used. Also, entries should not contain copies or references to any other existing third-party work or creation or infringements of any third-party intellectual property rights. The only intellectual property that your creation may be linked to for this contest is Ducati. You’re welcome to use minifigures in your entry, as long as they’re not licensed to a third party. You can read the rest of the rules and fine print at the contest entry page.

The first place winner will receive the following prizes: #42107 LEGO Technic Ducati Panigale signed by the designer, #42099 LEGO Technic 4X4 X-treme Off-Roader, #42108 LEGO Technic Mobile Crane, #42105 LEGO Technic Catamaran, a Ducati backpack, and a $150 spending spree at the Online LEGO Shop. The second place winner will receive the following: #42107 LEGO Technic Ducati Panigale signed by the designer, #42108 LEGO Technic Mobile Crane, a Ducati watch, and a $150 spending spree at the Online LEGO Shop. The third place winner will receive the following: #42107 LEGO Technic Ducati Panigale signed by the designer, a Ducati waist bag, and a $150 spending spree at the Online LEGO Shop.

If you are interested to enter this contest, visit the contest entry page to read all the details and begin designing and building! LEGO Technic bikes has quite a fan base, so I expect some great entries. If you haven’t seen the bike yet, you can read the press-release, or visit the LEGO Technic section of the Online LEGO Shop.

    There is no size limit?

      I don’t see a limit. And it seems most people are using the standard bike for their entries.

    Haha! I like some of the entries! I don’t know if I’m creative enough to build something that has a chance in this contest.
