That London bus looks really nice. I might go buy something for it.

Look up the instructions, no special parts there if you have enough red bricks you can make one for yourself.

It does look nice. I was curious if it used printed tiles or stickers. I just looked. It is stickers.

Here's a link to the instructions http://cache.lego.com/bigdownloads/buil ... 160834.pdf

Remember the LEGO 40079 VW bus polybag? I'm surprised that it sells for more than $25 usually on ebay. It also is mostly common parts with the exception of the sticker and the part used for the top http://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/cat ... =1#T=C&C=1 which is becoming less rare.

And it wasn't on the calendar...I guess Lego got smart so that people didn't wait to make their purchases until double points. It does come off as being kind of sneaky and penny pinching.
This is the first time I can remember of a 2x vip not being on the calendar. Has it happened that way before?

Yes. They do this kind of often.

When was the last time? There hasn't been one not on the calendar for the last few years at least that I recall.

I seem to remember them doing this several months ago...I think...my memory isn't what it used to be (work, grad school, kids...)
