siddji Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 I like the bus. But will be saving some cash for the winter promo's. I do believe this will hold its value as it could be paired with Tower Bridge and Big Ben. One should at least get 2 of these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaylay Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 People say about pairing this with TB and BB but in fact it's not to scale with the two giants. London bus is only a stand alone set or nicely displayed with the other mini poly vehicles from the past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcandre Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 Wish it were minifigure scale. As is I don't care much for it. Won't work in a city scene, not scale to the big ben. It is very nice for a freebie but overall pretty meh. It might not be hard to moc a minifigure one with two sets and a few extra pieces. hmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaylay Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 Plus shipping that incorrectly with any of the two British giants will either cause a dent in the big heavy box or a pancaked London bus, or both! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All they will see is there is a London Bus that will be a nice display to go a long with their TB or BB set and will want it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bricker123 Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 Stickers according to Jangs video review that is posted above. Thank you! If it's all stickers not sure if that'll affect the value. Those bricks itself doesn't seems to be rare at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deanfjr Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 (edited) I am not sure there is much long term value here, other than the stickers, I'm sure you can Pick a Brick the bus nothing unique or rare as far as I see....

Xmas set promo time. But I will accept if they give both Xmas and bus together for purchases over EUR 55 :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post cubfan78 Posted October 1, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted October 1, 2016 Funny story. A couple weeks ago when I saw the London Bus promo come up in a thread, I cursed myself for missing that promo. When I want to the garage tonight to look for the Mystery Mansion to build, I realized that I had three sets of the London Bus. I was very happy with this discovery but also very troubled that I had forgotten that I ordered the VW, T1, and Mini Cooper during that promotion. My Lego addiction maybe getting out of hand. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Briggs Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Today I received my order from the last day of the London Bus promo. They included a sticker sheet in the shipping box which also includes alternative advertisements for the bus. Did anyone else receive one of these? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
