If you're one of the three-or-so billion of us that has been placed in lockdown, you will no doubt be looking for things - other than Netflix - to keep you occupied.

Well, for those among you who are fans of the Fast and Furious franchise, we might have just the thing.

That's because LEGO is set to release a 1,077-piece replica of Dominic Toretto's black 1970 Dodge Charger R/T. Wowzers, right?

It's the first time LEGO has dipped its toe into the world of illegal drag-racing and it looks pretty impressive.

Speaking about the announcement, Samuel Tacchi, who designed the set for Lego Technic, said it was a collaboration with the studio.

He said: "We worked really closely with the Universal team to bring Dom's Dodge Charger to life in the most minute detail to inspire 'Fast & Furious' fans and Lego Technic builders around the world."

Dom's iconic charger will be available from next month.

Priced at $99.99 (£80), the charger opens up its bonnet to reveal its V8 engine, while the trunk holds nitro bottles in the back and there are also mini fire extinguisher at the front.

And while it's not available right now, you can pre-order the model here.

However, maybe you're not a Fast and Furious fan, in which case this is of no use at all.

But hold on there, LEGO still has plenty in the locker to keep you ticking along during this bout of isolation.

Last Christmas, the toy giant released something that will no doubt spark nostalgia and excitement for people who love the old-school Batman.

We are, of course, talking about the 3,306 piece set of Michael Keaton's Batmobile.

That's right, you could spend hours or even days getting every tiny little brick together to create one of cinema's most iconic cars.

In the set, you'll also receive three figurines, Batman, the Joker and Vicki Vale; all characters from the 1989 movie starring Michael Keaton, Jack Nicholson and Kim Basinger.

It was to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the incredible film. The only snag is that, like Dom's whip, it doesn't come cheap and will set you back a hefty $399.99 AUS (£199).

Dominic Toretto's black 1970 Dodge Charger is available worldwide from 27 April.

Let's all bring some positivity, support and fun to anyone who might find themselves in isolation as a result of the coronavirus spread. Need some entertainment? Join Isolation Nation: https://www.facebook.com/groups/coronasupport/
