10220 - Volkswagen T1 Camper Van

[mscheaf]

Order came in today. Mini T1 codes are 26M3

[No More Monkeys]

TRU has campers, but given LEGO Shop at Home promo, and the fact that codes on mini are 26M3, nobody would probably care about TRU. Unless you have some gift cards to burn, or over the limit at LEGO Shop at Home already

That is an old code (which is good).

the fact that these new miniT1s have a code ending in 3 indicates a lost pallet packaged in 2013.

 

seal codes correlate at least with the lego carton packaging date listed in year month day format on the side of the lego case they come in for every set i have cases of.

 

for example, the outside case of 8 exosuits has a label with a date code listed as 140519 - May 19 2014.

there is also a second production date code listed as YYMM - 1405 - this explicitly tells us that the date codes are YYMMDD.

this case was packaged at 6 am-ish on Monday May 19th.

 

 

 

the exosuits on the inside have case seals  20S4 - the 20th week of 2014 begins with - you guessed it Monday May 19.

 

 

this is counting the first complete week of 2014 beginning on monday january 6th as Week 1.

What country in CZE?

 

I'm guessing it is the Czech Republic.

How does an American get a case of 8 exosuits from Czech Rupublic?

There are no lego plants in US. Thankfully, the one in China is producing only limited set of lego products (though that will change). There is plant in Mexico, but certain sets are done only in Europe.

Is the space man promo over?

[tabc59]

The spaceman is still showing up for me.

Is the space man promo over?

As of yesterday it was still available at LEGO Shop at Home.

At our local b&ms both oakridge and guildford were sold out before the 2 week mark, unless they got more in.

I bought a T1 on September 1st, So Yesterday I called to see if lego would send me a free mini T1, the lady first said she couldn't because I didn't order the T1 while the mini promo was active. So told her I would like to return the one I purchased on the 1st and I would just reorder another one, She then replied that the mini T1 was a one day promotion because of limited stock and I couldn't reorder because the promotion had ended. I had my tablet in front of me and I was looking right at it sitting in my cart. I told her that it's still showing up on the site and she put me on hold, After a 30 min. Wait she came back and said she would send me one this time but she wasn't suppose to. Then she made the comment that she was writing notes in my member profile. What's this all about? Did anyone else purchase a T1 before the new mini T1 promo and call to get the mini. I was never rude to her and spoke politely the whole time but she acted like I was trying to get over on them. Am I wrong to think they would rather just send me the poly bag than me returning the T1 just to order a new one?

if i were you i would have just ordered another T1 camper and got the polybag. its not worth to get marked for it. apparently these days TLG is getting very tight. probably people are/have abused it to the limit and hence now its getting hard to get replacement part

[brickolodon]

Its happened before, i remember ARF Shadow Trooper as promo LEGO Shop at Home was avail couple times for next 6-8 months

[brickolodon]

Anyone outside BP even knows about mini camper promo??

No, talked to store lego employees no one even know about it....i mean no one

LEGO Shop at Home Out of stock, expected ship date 19 Sep 2014

[baldilocks]

That's tomorrow. Why even put that there?

10220 Volkswagen Camper is THE top seller on LEGO Shop at Home today (Sep 18).

 

But Winter Village Market is also one of the top sellers. This set has been a drag for months for Lego. "Coincidentally" there have been more talks of EOL here for the last few days.

IMO that means there are a lot of us brickulators out there, to the point that we make a significant impact to Lego's best seller list.

Sure starting to seem that way....

[asharerin]

I have a feeling this set and its good friend Mini will get to spend some quality time together on LBR shelves in 2015.

[emonster]

Ok, let's get back on target.  Everybody can put their tiny rulers away and quit comparing.

 

T1 Camper everybody.

Lol...so i guess you have a bigger ruler?

I wonder how many units it takes to become a top seller for lego?

I'm forced to use a yardstick.

Do you all think this set has VW Beetle 10187 type potential?

[chinothegeeko]

Do you all think this set has VW Beetle 10187 type potential?

 

No because it has been hoarded way too much. VW Beetle wasn't back then. I do like it 100 times better than the Beetle though.
