Most people in the US do not know where London is located (or what the word London means)   Probably should have called the set "That red bus for sightseeing" to make it popular in the US

1000% "NYC sightseeing bus" with diff stickers and woulda sold 3x in the USA

I thought it was well known that the majority of Americans are clueless about geography?  This is why we have an event called the World Series that only involves baseball teams from the US

Or just put this on wheels, include a helicopter, and we'd be good 🙂

Great set.

One of the few TLM2 sets also doing well is 70842 (triple decker). Right now goes for 2xRRP on eBay UK. Was expecting better but TLM2 sets in general not doing that well, I had high hopes for sewer babies and sparkle baby sets.

Idk, there's a lot of choices.  Would you rather have a Mustang, Porsche or a bus?

Bus, says my toddler.

Yay LEGO!

mmmmm, I think you're toddler is just responding with the choice they can pronounce . . .

BUS!

[redghostx]

My two year old can actually talk (and has been able to clearly for a long time), it's both good and bad, depending on when he shuts up.

Yay LEGO!

Sorry guys, I will do better in the future but finding the right english name for the sets when you only know the german designation is not that easy.
