LEGO Creates a Build-Your-Own Toy Iteration of the Leica M Camera

Chris McVeigh is a Canadian LEGO builder and designer and he recently unveiled a special kit that allows photography fans to re-create a 'Leica M' camera. Leica is a photography label that delivers retro-style cameras and the toy kits highlight the signature 'M' camera in two colorway options.

The LEGO kit comes in either a black set or a brown set, comprised of over 110 LEGO pieces to put together. When the LEGO Leica M camera is complete built, the toy structure stands at 2 inches tall and 3 x 1.25 inches wide, weighing two ounces. The special camera kits are now available for preorder online at Leica Store Miami for the price of $45 USD.
