Whew, how do we improve on the
Reventon? More to the point, how did Lamborghini top the Reventon? The
Aventador. With a name that means "The Fighting Bull", the Aventador lives up to its name. Lamborghini took the Aventador to the next level with new side inlets, a new
taillight design that becomes brand identity, new aggressive body
treatments and all the fighter jet treatments in the interior. Add to this
list, a high production model that is still current and is the feature of many car
cultures including the underground LED styles in Japan. The Aventador packs a
V12 and has several models to give a potential buyer choices from mild to wild.
The Aventadors body features also mark a new styling vision for Lamborghini and
is now part of the brands identity. The “Y” design of the taillights is now a
trademark feature on most Lamborghini models including prototypes. The
Aventador also held the fastest lap at the Nürburgring for 2 years straight.
The Aventador is reaching the mark of the most produced model in Lamborghini
history and is a current model.
HW Lamborghini Aventador
The Aventador casting debuted in
2012 and remains a current casting. One of the latest releases is the Fast and
Furious Euro Fast series in matte black with real riders and proper decals. The
actual name of the casting is Aventador LP700-4. This casting has appeared in
the premium Batman series, the Fast and Furious and at least once every casting
year. The Avetador J which is a roadster model has also appeared frequently and
was debuted in 2013. Both models are popular, likely because Mattel really hit
a home run with the Aventador casting. Every odd angle and body line is crisp and
spot on. The side intakes are deep and look realistic. The paint schemes for
the Aventador have been real world liveries which adds to the collectability of
this casting. A super treasure hunt released in 2018 is highly sought after. Wheel
choices have also been spot on over the years.
My personal favorite release of this
casting is the 2018 Kmart exclusive releases that were named Aventador Miura
Homage. There is a red and a blue version and they can be tricky to find but
they are out there. Be on the lookout for the 2020 releases in the police
subset and the Aventador J in the Lamborghini 5 pack.
Thank you, Happy collecting!
