Cue the saxophone and slide on those sunglasses, because the Bluesmobile just parked itself on LEGO® Ideas. Designed by vintagelover, The Blues Brothers and Bluesmobile packs 442 pieces into a tribute to one of the coolest cars ever to jump a drawbridge. Elwood and Jake are here too, ready to reunite the band one brick at a time.
The star of the show is that battered ex-police cruiser, reborn as a legend on four wheels. This version rolls as a working push car (go on, give it a gentle shove across the coffee table), seats four minifigures, and hides a genuinely clever secret. Tucked behind the seats sits a storage compartment for accessories, which is a lovely bit of building that keeps the model looking clean while sneaking in extra play. Nineteen printed elements handle the details, so no stickers wobble your groove.
Then there are the two exclusive minifigures. Elwood and Jake Blues arrive in their black suits, hats, and shades, complete with a display stand so the brothers can strike a pose beside their beloved ride. Want to line them up next to your other LEGO® vehicle sets? That works. Fancy building a whole diorama of downtown chaos around them? Also works. There is no single right way to display these two.
The designer, vintagelover, has wanted an official The Blues Brothers set for years and finally decided to build the dream personally. Published on January 12, 2026, the project has already gathered 1,814 supporters and 52 comments from fans who clearly share the mission. It needs 10,000 supporters to reach the review stage.
So if you love a good car, a great movie, or a soulful tune (or all three at once, you overachiever), why not head to LEGO® Ideas and back the Bluesmobile? It's 106 miles to Chicago, but only a few clicks to add your support.
