@MikeTwo9398. I do believe you're the first top 100 to post to this thread (aside from rm8, of course). Might I ask what place you finished?

A strange numberplate indeed...

And lucky for you all german, JunkstyleGio have no real car and no caravan :laugh::wink:

I don't know! I had 111 point.

I believe even more points than others in the top 10, but the Lego team chose the last 10.

I don't understand how that works

I think Lego chose ten entries from the top 100 for the top 10 according to their own rules (i.e. financial possible, according to lego building rules etc.). From this ten the lego users chose the no. 1.

Unfortunately not. The good old times of preview windows are long gone :(

Maybe it is possible by only cutting the seal on one side. But completely without cutting will not be possible.

You can remove the seal in a way, that one does not notice. But it is recommended that you sell it as "opened once" anyway, because it'd be fraud to state something other.

I received my copy from USA S@H yesterday and it looks like someone had already opened the set. The box flaps were cut on one side and you could easily reach in. I haven't inventoried the set yet, but the bag with the license plate is there. I don't plan on ever selling the set, and the box wasn't damaged beyond the side flaps being cut. The cuts were right along the corners, and neatly done. My only concern is missing parts, which I'll find out soon enough.

2/20000 :wink: even though they're special numbers, just as much chance of getting them as any other

Wrong I'm afraid, the probability would be (1/20000)*(1/20000)= 1/400000000 assuming that the numbers are chosen randomly and independently of one another

You can check the completeness of the bags included by comparing yours to the picture in this link:

Actually, which has already been said, it's (2/20000)*(1/19999) = 1/199990000. First pick, you have two "right choices". After you've picked one right, there's only one right choice and 19999 wrong choices left.

Those are cool but I prefer not turning numbers upside down because of how the plate displays "xxxxx of 20000".

I think the best number is 13055 for BOSS. I wonder if anyone here got it?

03055 also makes "boss", so there's 2 sets with that.
