Val-E Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 Early access a whole month ahead? I´d sooner go for a switch in dates between that and the Disney castle - maybe some people got confused which is which! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HandyHand Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 10252 in August makes sense. Both the Mini Cooper (10242) and the Ferrari F40 (10248) were released in August (2014 and 2015 respectively). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asked him the current ETA on the 2016 exclusives and he said : 21128 - June 10253 - July 10252 - August 71040 - September 75159/10254 - October So this list does seem to be coming true with Big Ben confirmed and brickset reporting early access to 10252 in mid July.

gregpj Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 That looks really slick... Love the color choice. It'll look great with the T1! (Ya ya, maybe the T1 sticks around a bit longer...) **edit.. Those wheel wells look like new parts to me? ** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarleyMoose Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 Yeah, it's going to have to grow on me. Seems kind of small. I was hoping for something more I guess.. 2 minutes ago, Val-E said: Not my cup of tea, sorry. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ciglione Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 It is not bad. It is smaller than the classic set. Which I like better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably will have little effect on the older version, which is a pretty rare set and much larger in piece count. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ISO8T0 Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 (edited) It looks a little like a Citroen with that flat windshield even thought the vw had a flat windshield as well. I'll let my wife judge this new VW bug design since she grew up in a VW family and drove a '68 super beetle as her first car. Over all a nice design though.

Lordoflego Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 It has 1167 pieces, with Ferrari at 1158 pieces, this one should cost the same, but who knows with LEGO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
