just2good Posted April 17, 2016 Posted April 17, 2016 Is there a mini bus with it? No. Isn't there a London Bus promo, maybe that's a GWP with it?
CM4Sci Posted April 17, 2016 Posted April 17, 2016 No. Isn't there a London Bus promo, maybe that's a GWP with it? Don't think so, I think the June GWP is that fountain.
legonerd54321 Posted April 17, 2016 Posted April 17, 2016 Yes, a lot. There's what seems to be Kylo Ren's blade in tan for the crosses but it looks smaller, so I think I'm wrong. AMA. Can you give us more details, i.e. the overall look? What details really stand out, does it look like Big Ben?
jake0324demo Posted April 17, 2016 Posted April 17, 2016 how many pieces Justin, I wonder if it has more than the Taj Mahal.
Jern92 Posted April 18, 2016 Posted April 18, 2016 Oh, gosh, you've got pictures already.. Uh.. any other interesting pieces in new colors? Is it the entire place or just the tower? Is it just me or does it feel like there's a missing post before this one?
CM4Sci Posted April 18, 2016 Posted April 18, 2016 (edited) Nope. J2G says he's seeeeeeen a picture, right above, AMA. Edited April 18, 2016 by CM4Sci
just2good Posted April 18, 2016 Posted April 18, 2016 Nope. J2G says he's got a picture, right above, AMA. Didn't say I have a picture. I have at least saw one. Can you give us more details, i.e. the overall look? What details really stand out, does it look like Big Ben? Yeah. There's part of the palace connecting to the tower. The bell is on the box, which is kinda funny. There's microfigures (board game figures) as the detailing for some of the walls. And, IIRC, the clock face is a radar dish flipped around.
Jobpiesaus Posted April 18, 2016 Posted April 18, 2016 hay J2G, where do you find this information, if you saw a picture can you send it? i hope for mor information about the big ben
CM4Sci Posted April 18, 2016 Posted April 18, 2016 ^ He doesn't have a picture. Do not ask if he doesn't have!
tsi Posted April 18, 2016 Posted April 18, 2016 unfortunately not a photo of the real original LEGO set ... But already available from an asian distributor:

Did the tower look good? Was it comparable to the other landmark sets in terms of complexity and ascetics? I mean, if one of the most potentially complex and beautiful parts of the tower really do consist of a reversed radar dish and what I assume to be a sticker, then I'm really not sure if to expect anything of outstanding quality. Also, was the bell 1 piece or brick built? And did you see the piece count? Thank you. Edited April 19, 2016 by someguy827

Stickers don't even work with the curvature of radar dishes anyway.

It is like architecture set or its like in Legoland Is there any interior, or tree or road?Also are on box model dimensions? Thanks for reply .

That LEGOLand one is so similar! It's a little smaller than that. Also, I think the clock-face is one piece, may be wrong. One radar dish inverted. Asking the dimensions, here it is: 19 cm / 7.4 in. wide 60 cm / 23.6 in. high

Well it comes with part of the palace, too. Actually, like the exact amount as the LEGOLand model. And yeah, there's a brick built Big Ben (the bell). I wrote that it's made up of a dish, circular 2x2 plate, 2x2 cicular jumper, then the rest was fuzzy. Edited April 20, 2016 by just2good

Would make no sense if that includes the rest as well. 60 cm high is pretty good, can't wait for images!

I probably pass this set, I dont have many room beetween cupboard and ceiling .No, I only joke but it is true.I hope that lego never do some skyscraper .

Well, my only concern about this set is that the build might be the most tedious one since ages ...

Well worst than Tower bridge it never will be ."Hurray page 300 Im finished !...Oh wait where is the second tower ?" But for me it will be great display model, because I have room in same tan colour as these London landmarks. Edited April 20, 2016 by Ondra

But for me it will be great display model, because I have room in same tan colour as these London landmarks. That's what D2C sets for me have to be ... great display models. However Creator Expert D2C sets also have to be great builds, using clever building technices, etc. I'm sure Big Ben will have this as well. Can't wait for the Volkswagen Beetle, Big Ben and Technic Porsche 911 GT3 RS. The only Lego sets I'll buy this year.
legonerd54321 Posted April 22, 2016 Posted April 22, 2016 Any news about the release date? I heard it was going to be around June, but apparently thats for the village?
L@go Posted April 22, 2016 Posted April 22, 2016 There's already one in the Vault in Billund... We were there for the EB Event and somebody spotted this on a shelf. Only the side of the box was visible though, so not much to see. But at least it's ready for sale :)
