Multipass, please. A brand-new The Fifth Element : Korben Dallas Taxi project has landed on LEGO® Ideas, and it captures the flying yellow cab that zipped through the neon canyons of Luc Besson's 1997 cult classic. Builder Micka Mcbrick designed the whole thing as a love letter to one of their favourite films, and it already has 1,477 supporters cheering it on.

The taxi arrives in Speed Champions format, which means it sits at that lovely sweet spot between display piece and playable model. Measuring 22cm long, 15.4cm wide, and 11cm tall, the cab has enough room inside to seat its two minifigures. And what a pair they are: Korben Dallas himself, plus Leeloo (whose full name, Leeloo Minai Lekatariba Lamina-Tchai Ekbat De Sebat, is a mouthful even the movie couldn't resist saying out loud).


Look closer and the little touches start to shine. Micka Mcbrick packed detail into the bodywork and the cabin interior, so the taxi reads as instantly recognisable from every angle. Ever tried building a movie vehicle at this scale and keeping it both sturdy and screen-accurate? It is a genuinely tricky balancing act, and this design pulls it off with the confidence of a cabbie dodging skyscraper traffic.



The set also comes with its own display base, giving Korben and Leeloo a proper stage to strike a pose. If you have ever wanted a slice of retro-future The Fifth Element sci-fi on your shelf, this is the ticket, and building it yourself would be half the fun.




Micka Mcbrick has already tackled several movie-license models and wants to keep the momentum going with even more legendary vehicles. Every fresh vote nudges this taxi closer to the 10,000-supporter goal that sends a project into the official review stage. So who is ready to hail this cab? Head to LEGO® Ideas, give The Fifth Element : Korben Dallas Taxi your support, and help this flying yellow legend reach the finish line. As Korben would say... green light.
