This had so much potential...this will probably behave the same as the Delorean, as hideous as I think it is, people don't care & will scoop it up...

      I also read a lot of comments that describe it as "the poster I had when I was a kid" so I think LEGO, to a degree, is banking on the popularity of Ferrari to make this set popular despite it's shortc

      Well, I guess we'll keep hoarding those VW Campers.

    My guess is their target market is not Ferrari aficionados or AFOLs, its the 30-60 year old, middle income men who go into the store to buy legos for their kids or grand kids.  They obviously did not want to gamble big on this, which is why we get a lot of stickers on a set built with mostly generic pieces.  I cant help but think the F40 was a bad choice for this.  I mean the F40 is iconic but not recognizable by anywhere near as broad an audience as the T1 or the mini.  Its a different class of iconic that just seems like it would be suited to a higher price point. But im sure they have some market studies that say otherwise....

    I work for a car rental company, so this is finally my excuse to display a LEGO set in my office that matches the theme of my occupation. Will be the first Creator vehicle i purchase :)

    It seems that the f40 and enzo are similar scale at 10" long each from my web searches despite the very different piece count. I was previously worried that the f40 would dwarf the enzo! Excited to build it!

    It seems reviews are rather favourable so far. Might not be as bad as we think. Might have been better, however it doesn't mean it stinks.

    I just dropped some VIP points on one. After looking again, it's starting to grow on me. I'm building it the day it arrives just in case it's the gem I hope it is.

    Will the Technic Mercedes-Benz Arocs 3245 Truck be available to VIP members before 1st August?

    bought a decent amount , seems to be selling well already with a lot being exported.

    might be interesting to watch if it OOS soon and if they have the ability to keep up with another big release

    Besides TabbyBoy above, how many of you took advantage of the VIP early access to this set?

     

    Ordered one for myself first thing this morning. The F40 is iconic and considering the medium and that this is an official set made with the practical limitations that come with that, very nicely done.

    At some point I will for sure buy a few of this set. I don't see how this will fail to be a winner in the long term.
