May 13, 20214 yr There was also a T2 in LOST I sorta regret not keeping one of the T1s just cause we’ve always been a VW family (various buses and bugs growing up, wife and I are on our third bug now). Do a T2 in blue like this and I’m gonna just be shut up and take my money
July 13, 20214 yr T2 is out https://www.brickfanatics.com/lego-for-adults-10279-volkswagen-t2-camper-van-officially-revealed/ a little too rectangular. me no like color either. shoulda kept more T1s

July 13, 20214 yr Great news for T1 holders. Its getting bad reviews in comments and YT vids. It's super blocky and lacks charm of the T1. Plus, the release all but guarantees no re-releases of the T1 for next 2-3 years. Best possible outcome IMO.

The front windshield's upper angle should be steeper and the bottom base around said windshield going into the sides more rounded but far as LEGO models goes they managed to make something similar without simply repeating themselves. Roughly a thousand more pieces yet the build seems slimmer than the former vehicle by using a lot of various tiling across the sides smoothing it all out. The more I look at the finished product, the more I like it. And the blue (could be medium azure) is a nice calming contrast to the T1's vibrant red.
November 10, 20214 yr so i got a return from amazon. came with no box, just the inner bags, 15 in total. 13 sealed 2 though look like theyre open and put in a different type of bag. is this how it comes from Lego?

You’ll be spending more time camping at charging stations than in the woods. Edited December 11, 20214 yr by Mathew

How are people who live in apartment complexes and commute to low paying retail jobs going to manage EVs? They are not feasible until the infrastructure is in place where efficient (Fast as in under 10 minutes) charging stations are as ubiquitous as gas stations are today.
