The BAV Brick Devel Sixteen is a 4,016-piece, 1:8 scale building set that recreates the Devel Sixteen hypercar, officially licensed and priced from $236.89 to $267.79 depending on which remote-control and LED options you pick. Built by TGL Co., Ltd. and customized by BAV, the finished model measures 61cm long (24in), making it one of the larger builds in BAV Brick’s supercar lineup.
What You Actually Get in the Box
The Devel Sixteen isn’t a static display kit. According to BAV Brick’s own product listing, the set includes working mechanical parts alongside the usual brick construction:
- A functioning V16 engine with rotating pistons and a fully developed drivetrain
- Independent suspension, plus remote-controlled drive and steering on the RC versions
- Remote-controlled adjustable ride height, so you can switch between a lowered display stance and a taller driving stance
- Opening butterfly doors, an opening engine cover, and a detailed interior with a functioning steering wheel
- A front splitter, rear diffuser, and dual exhaust system for the aero-heavy rear end
- Custom wheels with low-profile rubber tires
- Real carbon fiber upgrade shafts you can swap in during the build for a stiffer, lighter structure
- A printed color instruction manual, with parts pre-sorted by build section
Pricing and Version Differences
BAV Brick sells the Devel Sixteen in four configurations, and the price gap between them comes down to two add-ons: remote control and the LED lighting kit.
| Version | Remote Control | LED Kit | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Non-Remote Controlled | No | No | $236.89 |
| Non-Remote Controlled + LED kit | No | Yes | $247.19 |
| Remote Controlled | Yes | No | $257.49 |
| Remote Controlled + LED kit | Yes | Yes | $267.79 |
The base version still includes the working V16 engine, opening doors, and functional steering wheel. What you’re paying extra for on the RC versions is driven steering and drive control plus the adjustable ride height feature, and separately, ambient lighting on the LED versions.
Is It Worth the Price?
If you’re building this as a static shelf piece and want the mechanical detail without the extra electronics, the base Non-Remote Controlled version covers the core selling points of this kit for the least money. The jump to Remote Controlled makes more sense if you actually want to drive the finished model or adjust its stance for photos, since that’s the one feature set you can’t add after the fact. The LED kit is the smallest functional upgrade of the three and is mostly a display preference rather than something that changes how the model works.
Where this kit is a weaker fit: builders who want a quick weekend project. At over 4,000 pieces with a fully worked drivetrain and suspension, this is a longer, more involved build than BAV Brick’s smaller 1:14 and 1:24 scale sets.
How to Get the Best Price
As of this writing, there’s no dedicated promo code listed for the Devel Sixteen on BAV Brick’s site, and it isn’t currently included in their Special Offer collection, which is capped at items under $180. For a set starting at $236.89, that markdown category doesn’t apply here.
That said, there are still real ways to control what you pay:
- Choosing the Non-Remote Controlled base version instead of Remote Controlled + LED kit saves about $31 without losing the engine, doors, or interior detail.
- Every version already clears BAV Brick’s $150 threshold for free international shipping, so the listed price is effectively the total price.
- BAV Brick’s VIP email signup is their stated channel for “VIP-only models, offers & discounts,” which is the most reliable way to hear about future markdowns on higher-priced sets like this one.
Shipping, Warranty, and Returns
- Orders typically ship within 1 business day of being packed, with delivery to the US and Europe running 7 to 12 business days through carriers like FedEx, UPS, and DHL
- Payments through PayPal or Shopify Payments carry 180-day buyer protection
- Electronic components, including the RC drivetrain and LED kit, carry a 1-year warranty
- Missing parts can be reported through BAV Brick’s missing parts form for a free replacement
- Returns are accepted within 30 days of the order date or 7 days after delivery, whichever is later
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Remote Controlled version worth paying extra for?
Only if you plan to actually drive it or use the adjustable ride height. If the model is going straight onto a shelf, the Non-Remote Controlled version has the same engine, doors, and interior detail for less money.
Does the listed price include shipping?
Yes. BAV Brick’s shipping policy states the price shown is the total price, and international orders qualify for free shipping once they pass $150, which every Devel Sixteen version does on its own.
What happens if a piece is missing from my set?
BAV Brick has a dedicated missing parts form on their site. Submitting it triggers a free replacement rather than a return of the whole kit.
How long is the return window?
30 days from your order date, or 7 days after the parcel arrives, whichever gives you more time.
Is the electronic hardware covered by warranty?
Yes, all electronic components, including the RC drive, steering, and LED kit, carry a 1-year warranty against defects.
The Devel Sixteen makes the most sense for someone who already builds large-scale brick supercars and wants a display piece with real mechanical function, not just a static shape. If that’s not the goal, or the budget doesn’t stretch past $200, one of BAV Brick’s smaller 1:14 scale sets in the Special Offer collection will get closer to the same hobby without the price jump. Prices and version availability are set by BAV Brick directly, so it’s worth double-checking the current listing before you check out, since kit lineups on sites like this do shift over time.
