Shame I didn't read the rules a bit better. Had I known the top 100 would receive free LEGO, I would have tried to submit something.

Same here

Best RM8,

Is there some official list from the best top 100 votes, because me and Jaap Technic have not get any @mail from TLG and we can't contact them.

Maybe you ore somebody else can help us further.

Already thanks.

Guys, I dont have "instant online" contact with TLG, but I am sure you'll receive letter. May be they'll send it next days.

It will be a big mistake to leave your awesome work without prizes. Be patient, hope and believe!

I'm not sure about receiving the mail...

[Bzroom]

Congratulations everybody. I can't wait to get my hands on one of these too. I'll probably build it without the internals and leave it on the shelf because it's so beautiful. I'll bang up my mocs and leave this one pretty.

[Someonenamedjon]

if you had instant message with tlg they what would you do

[pint14]

One thumb question but are they going to sell the bodywork with chassis? :D

[efferman]

yes

The new info for you from Lego blog.

Exclusive Sneak Preview of the “You Design It – We Make It!” Winner!

Egor Karshiev, the creative mastermind behind the winning “You Design It – We Make It!” model, has been working closely together with LEGO Technic’s Markus Kossmann to get everything ready for production at the LEGO factory in Denmark.

Driven by our desire to bring you this limited edition model as quickly as possible, we have had to make a lot of very rapid design decisions … And we’re proud to say that this is what we’ve come up with:

Being an exclusive box and a model inspired by 60’s 70’s American muscle cars, we wanted to do something really special with the colour scheme. The design team and Egor discussed several different approaches, in the end settling on the dark blue used in LEGO Star Wars models for the main colour, and adding two classic race car styled white stripes as well as a number extra silver metallic elements. The dark blue colour is a LEGO Technic first – just one of the many innovations unique to this model! To complete the overall look, we’ve also added a thin white ring on the rims to provide just the right touch of extra styling.

Truly limited edition

With only 20,000 available worldwide and with every model featuring an individually numbered license plate, this is a fantastic chance to own something both exclusive and unique!

It took some effort, but we’re very pleased to say that we have managed to include Egor’s integration of Power Functions in the internal winch and in the front headlights! The final model features a motorized winch (using a medium motor) and light cable turned on and off by a switch – all adding up to a wealth of Power Functions elements!

So, finally, it’s time to press the big green ‘Go’ button in our factory and in a few weeks the first trucks will leave our warehouse in Billund carrying a very special cargo! Wherever you are in the world, we hope that this exclusive, limited edition model will give you as much pleasure as it has given us!

I look forward to getting my free copy....

[JaapTechnic]

can someone explain why i didn't got any email?

my entry got 310 votes....

[hrontos]

This individually numbered licence plate, motorized winch and working headlights make this model even more amazing. Good job.

[cgg199]

If people with over 300 votes didn't get an email, and I did, did TLG definitely give them out to people with the highest votes, or the ones they liked best? That's the only thing I can think of.

There clearly has been a mistake, your design was one of the best and I voted for it. I think that the only reason it did not reach the top 10 finalists was because of the Land Rover copyright issues but you should still get a prize especially as tracked entries got prizes. I think that Lego must no have your contact details correct and you should definitely try to phone customer support and explain if they do not reply to emails because the prize is very valuable and should be taken seriously.

VFracingteam got the same problem

if someone knows some ways to contact them tell them to me,

when i send a email it goes the customer support in my own country

and the couldn't send it for me directly to Denmark....

i really want the Boss Crawler, it's a very nice model.

[rm8]

Hope they just did not have time to send emails to all prizegetters, including Jaap and VFracing...

[Conchas]

Hey guys,

We will get an official explanation soon, by the Technic team, at the proper place.

Best!

@ rm8: Can we assume that there will be no 2-for-1 "B-Model" alternate for "The Boss" set, like there was for the 9398 4x4 Crawler set?

[Meatman]

Is this the first time that Lego has ever had individually numbered sets like this?

What do you mean "like this"?

It is not a Technic set, but TLG did number a limited edition of Santa Fe locomotive (10020-2).

10.000 units if I recall it right!

I think Meatman means the individual licence plates on each model which will give each one a high value for collectors. What would be really cool is if each prize winner had their Lego ID on the licence plate, especially rm8.
