LEGO Icons 10306 Atari 2600: what you need to know

LEGO today unveils the Icons set 10306 Atari 2600, a large box of 2532 pieces which will be available from August 1, 2022 at the retail price of €239.99. After that of the LEGO Super Mario set 71374 Nintendo Entertainment System Marketed since 2020, this reproduction of the Atari VCS is therefore the second vintage game console to integrate the LEGO catalog.

The manufacturer chose to reproduce the version with four switches launched in 1980 rather than the original version marketed in 1977 which had six. The set intends in passing to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Atari, a brand which today has very little to do with what it offered fifty years ago despite the launch last June of a new version of the VCS in the form of a mini-pc carrying a hundred games.

LEGO not only reproduces the console and its controller, the product also makes it possible to assemble three game cartridges (Asteroids, Adventure and Centipede), a storage unit and three mini-scenes from the games concerned presented on their respective bases . The opening of the console cover reveals a staging with a minifig whose torso is flanked by a brand logo.

We will very quickly talk about this box in more detail on the occasion of a "Review ".
