LEGO reveals Volkswagen T2 Camper Van set

LEGO has unveiled its new Volkswagen T2 Camper Van set.

Based on its namesake of the late 1960s and 1970s, the new set succeeds the much-loved previous LEGO Creator Expert Volkswagen T1 Camper Van while adding many new features in the process.

The new 2207-piece set is larger than before and distinguished by a new paint colour, a sliding door, as well as the trademark T2 wraparound Baywindow front windscreen and a new yet instantly recognisable 'face'.

The LEGO Volkswagen T2 Camper Van also comes with a detailed camping interior, fully equipped for the open road with opening cabinets, fridge, sink and a gas stove with a teapot. And days at the beach also catered for with a set of folding chairs and a surfboard, while a folding rear bench seat provides a comfortable place to stay under starry skies.

Each set will come with a sticker set including retro decals and a choice of German or U.S.A number plates. The LEGO Volkswagen T2 Camper Van goes on sale on 1 August 2021.
