LEGO Speed Champions 77256 Time Machine from Back to the Future Officially Revealed | January 2026

Great Scott! Another official reveal has taken place, and it's another 2026 presentation belonging to the LEGO Speed Champions theme. Following on from official images of 77255 Lightning McQueen last month, the homegrown LEGO theme has showcased another movie-inspired car, this time travelling all the way back to the 1980s with 77256 Time Machine from Back to the Future.

The 9+ model releases on the 1st of January 2026 alongside a further five brick-built high-speed cars. It retails for $27.99 / €27.99 / £22.99, includes 357, and is the first single-car LEGO Speed Champions set to include two LEGO Minifigures. These figures are unsurprisingly Doc Brown and Marty McFly, who both fit inside the cockpit of the eight-stud-wide time machine.

Just like 77255 Lightning McQueen, the DeLorean Time Machine has already appeared in brick-built LEGO form, most recently as a display-worthy LEGO Icons model of 10300 Back to the Future Time Machine. In 2026, however, this DeLorean is obviously completely Minifigure scale yet still captures the iconic time-travelling features of the vehicle in its light grey colour scheme, complete with various stickers for further details.

The set offers various customisation features allowing builders to switch between the version from the first movie with the long lightning rod and a California license plate, and the flying version, which appears in the second part. This more futuristic version is complete with sideways-titled wheels, Mr Fusion and an orange license plate.
