Review: 1854 VELUX Promotional: House with Windows

[kciR]

They sold out :(

I wonder, do you think they might do this again next year? It could be once a year thing

I wouldn't count on it, as the set dates from 1996.

well here is the reply I got from the Scotland branch of Velux

Many thanks for your email. I am very sorry to say that the VELUX Lego sets have now been discontinued and are no longer available.

Kind regards,

Greetings!

Nice review! I ended up buying this set on bricklink about 3 years ago for about $50 when it was all said and done. I felt at that time I got a deal considering that the set was mint in sealed box. I think it is a great set considering that lego is short on houses IMO. This set is a welcome addition to any town layout.

WOW! This thread blew up when i wasn't looking.....:o

To answer many of your questions...

1. I am currently in Scotland, and i went through the UK Website.

2. I never received any response back from VELUX, thus i was surprised when it arrived! I wasn't expecting it.

3. I guess i probably lucked out

4. I only asked VELUX if they knew of anywhere i could purchase this set, and if i could would they show me where on the website i could do so.

I guess it was my lucky day!!!

Funny, I went thru the UK part (I'm in the US) and was told the set has not been available for years.
