    Unimog U400 Lego Found

    I found the limited Lego for sale in JHB today... and baught one

    Lillyput Toystore in Rosebank Mall. Ground Floor.

    There are still 5 in stock (or was at 16h00 today 31/08).

    Going price R2 400-00.

    This Lego is not for sissies, but boy it is going to be nice. to build and play with.

    Congratulations, it will probably become a collectors Lego item.

    One can never be to old for a good piece of Lego.

    I suppose you will not let your grand children play with your lego.....

    Ok just to let you know that i will be building mine this weekend.
    We are a bunch of guys going hunting and i am planning to take that along for a team building exercise while the other guys hunt.
    If on Monday the thing looks like a rooibok, then hey they gave me the wrong lego.

    RAT is you said at the Club meeting "one should not open all the bags at once"

    True stuff - 5 Books and about 10000000000000000 little parts.

    4 Hours and we are halfway into book 1 - but all the gears are working

    But hey yours can attract a great name - "Die Rooibok Mok"

    Are you sure it is limited production? If so, how many will be made? Both MB and Lego website just said that it will be produced from August on.

    Ok so you got me - I might be wrong on the limited production - this is what I was told, but I did not check the facts passed to me with either MB AG or Lego.

    Lesson ... do not lend your ears out and pass the word around.

    Either way, it is very very nice and great to have and will be a star addition to my Mog models.

    MBSA bringing in 10 - so maybe Ferdi knows what is the way forward re production.

    Mogster,
    Now if you take the word Limited in the dictionary it has the following: restricted in size, amount, or extent.
    Restricted in Size: I guess the size is fixed so it is restricted in size,
    Amount: Now this is where I have a problem, mine was also bought for R2400 when I collected parts from MB Boksburg they had already created a stock number for this. Their price R2850.
    Extent: I guess to what extent one will go to get your hands on one of these toys.
    So all in all I guess I have a limited mog.



    Have fun

    Rooibok Mog (RAT)

    All interested in a Lego-mog can also try their luck at the below mentioned competition as sent to me by popular mechanics.... But I must say it sounds great owning and building your own min-Mog!!!

    Download "PM's Daily Buzz" desktop RSS reader and stand to win a Unimog U 400 Lego set worth R2 650, courtesy of Mercedes-Benz. |more|
