Pomodoro Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 Autobild.de just posted an unboxing of 42056: http://www.autobild.de/videos/video-lego-porsche-911-gt3-rs-2016-9157773.html The packaging seems very close to the one we saw in the designer video. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pomodoro Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 16 minutes ago, rcdb1984 said: and we know the 10k are going to go asap TLG would definitely not put three years of development and cooperation with Porsche to sell a measly 10,000 copies of the set and not say anything about it prior to launch. This rumor started with the similarities one can draw with 41999, except that 41999 was a crowd-sourced design based on a existing chassis, and it was 20,000 copies total. Let's all take a step back and stop talking about a supposed limited run like it's a fact. It most definitely is not, all evidence points towards the set being some sort of Technic UCS. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Val-E Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 Packaging has been well over designed in my opinion. Looks more challenging opening the thing tha actually building it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever that means My preorder shows an optomistic delivery window of 13th June - Mid July. Unless amazon are going to place an order at LEGO Shop at Home on my behalf i think it's unlikely.

thegooch49 Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 I wonder if they will ship these in the LEGO carton, or re-pack for shipping. If they don't re-pack, they'll have to send the fountain promo separately? This would be good, so nothing is crushed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My small sets from LEGO Shop at Home have been arriving mangled by having too much packing in the box. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they are smart and don't want thousands of people calling and complaining about damaged 911's they will ship the Porsche in its original Lego box. I may actually call instead of ordering online to make sure they do this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
