The Brick Fan

Recommendation: meh 4.5 / 5 by Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

It was very nicely designed and it also makes a nice display piece right next to the 10220 version.

this is a very small version of the VW van it come is a little bag not a box. I didn't want to buy the full size but I didn't realize just how small this would be. bought it as a gift for my VW loving husband who likes to build lego with our 3 sons. He still loved it even though it was a small project.

This is an excellent small-scale rendition of a classic vehicle that's immediately recognisable.

This polybag is a great little model and was quite simple to build, taking just a few minutes. It has a surprisingly good resemblance to the full size T1 Camper Van, for such a small build.
