Thank you for the heads up on that free set. 👍🏼

The form says no longer valid and code doesn't work as of about 6 hours ago.  Did I miss it or are some able to get it to work?

WOW!  The quality, the positive review, well thought out wiring and wire management, electric contacts between floors and the price.  As a big fan of Lego, this scares me.  Yes, I know the Lego name will likely always carry the perception of premium brand, but how long can you stay relevant in the non-licensed space with this sort of stuff?  The non Lego brands are blowing Lego out of the water with all printed bricks, advanced design and well integrated lighting options.  It really brings the set to life.

Why does this scare you?  If anything, all the competition from these brands gives me hope that Lego may have to step up their game.

I guess I just don't see Lego stepping up their game.  They've had plenty of opportunity to be the leaders in what I would consider "their" industry, but I'm just not seeing that innovation keep up with the pace.  Not that they'll go out of business, but these non-Lego offerings are going to continue to dilute the product leading to lower value across the board both new and old.  If non-Lego was on par with Lego prices, I wouldn't be concerned.

Oh sh~t, they're making Castle now? It's funny how that just changed my whole interest in Flego.

They’re filling some gaps in Lego’s portfolio. It will be interesting to see what else they expand into.

Received the free Chili Dog Stand (ordered 10/16) today in a paper mailer bag.  Box is totally crushed, but I guess you get what you pay for.  Hopefully the Holiday Newsstand will fare better in its transit.

I thought I read somewhere that they use Amazon for their US distribution?  If so, doesn't surprise me these days.  I'm regularly receiving Amazon deliveries of just single products with shipping label slapped right on the actual product (lego box).  The ones that allow me to ship in Amazon packaging get a bag at best.  CS is getting terrible there too.  Sad because I use to love Amazon.

I, and family members, received a total of three of these.  Mine and my father's came in a nice double-walled box.  My daughter's came in an envelope.

You have to remember when you order to check the box NOT to show contents or, state it is a gift.

Thanks for the tip, but unfortunately I regularly do that and still get lego boxes with labels or even clear bags.  Maybe I've overused the option.

Wow. That looks awesome! Really innovative design, and the lighting system is incredible. LEGO, who??

I don’t see the free set thing. Maybe it’s already gone?

If this thread is going to evolve into the FunWhole fanclub, can we move those conversations to a separate thread so we can revert this thread back to its original topic?

Clone and Competitor Brands: A Clone brand or competitor brand, is a product manufactured by a legitimate company. For Example Oxford,Mega Blocks. Kreo or Character Building. These are companies that do not infringe copyrights and provide a competitor product, such as licenses and themes LEGO do not produce. It is fair to discuss, compare and share these brands and their products in the Community section of the Forum. 

What about FunWhole Fandom is not inline with the "Original Topic"? Just because the sets aren't "Crap" anymore shouldn't preclude us from discussing them.

Per Jang he has reached out to them and they are working on a new name for the US. I am fine with a new thread but please not another site as I can barely keep up with this one.

You have to submit a copy of your Amazon invoice to their email.

It has evolved from discussing the brand to "FunWhole Daily Deals". I think that should go to a separate channel.
