The trailer is a frame-by-frame recreation of the original Cars 2 trailer and took thousands of LEGO bricks to finish! Opening in theaters in 3D on June 24 (sadly not in LEGO version) Cars 2 is packed with loads of racing action and excitement or kids and adults alike! [Disney Consumer Products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tribute-camera) says that "the LEGO Group’s first full line of Cars toys consists of 20 versatile and action-packed play sets recreating key scenes from the film — play sets so detailed that some come with as many as 800 pieces."
