My first lego since I was a child. Super fun build. I love all of the functionality of the bus.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Terrible Quality
on February 2, 2022
Posted by: Edwin7194
What a rip off! This set looks cute at first glance but the quality of the pieces is beyond awful. The plates are extremely fragile making the set extremely difficult to construct, and the set did not stay together easily. This is something I’d expect from a knock off brand, not lego.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Oh no! That’s really unusual, and we're sorry your build isn’t going as planned. We'd love to help and set up replacement pieces where necessary. Give us a call or chat https://bit.ly/3rVn8Te.

Love this Build… with a little tweaking
on February 1, 2022
Posted by: Ziggityfertel
I was really excited when this set showed up earlier than expected! It was such a fun and involved build. I’m an avid tent camper and I was at a gathering last year where a few folks were actually driving these vans. I always appreciate when LEGO showcases the outdoor community!
Things I loved:
1. Attention to detail of a Camper Van experience: the fridge; propane cupboard; engine housing… building that blew my mind!
2. Aesthetic was perfect! That “Taking-it-easy” Sky Blue really drew me to this product along with the sleek look of the Studs on the Outside style.
3. I love the juxtaposition of tech and creative building (this is my first build like this). I liked the “form and function” approach of this build.

Where some tweaks could happen:
1. I was surprised that the driver and passenger doors didn’t have and anchoring at the top hinge. They open and close beautifully, but it seems in any, as a builder, there would be something securing the top hinge.

2. The trunk (boot) is really hard to open. I rebuilt it twice to ensure I had all the bricks in place. Just seems clunky.
3. The sliding door is a bit clunky, as it doesn’t close cleanly. Once it’s in its bay, it’s flush, but it seems there could’ve been one more reinforcement to remedy this.
Again, thanks for this iconic build! I am no engineer, nor do I plan to be! Just wanted give my feedback on a fun and worthwhile build! Enjoy 2022, Everyone!

Great VW Van
on January 27, 2022
Posted by: Ground Control
This was a very good build. I liked it a lot. the front end was a little loose but I figured a way to get everything connected.
to those having the roof gap issue look at step 496 where you are installing the roof especially the two green arrows at the front of the top. These two gray connectors have to pushed in all the way at the top of the cab to get the top to install all the way and not leave a gap. Once again a great build that I recommend.

Loved this set!

Loved the set- had a blast putting it together. All pieces fit together fine, not sure why other reviewers mentioned the roof not being flush as it fits fine. Highly recommend!

Unstable
on January 21, 2022
Posted by: Emersonthedog
Worst Lego set ever. Designed for someone with 4 hands. Unstable. Even when instructions are followed, roof doesn't close correctly.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
