I’ve literally just signed up for a LUGNET membership just to post here because...

I WANT THIS SET! (Or at least a generic one, not necessarily Vestas- branded)

If I could only buy one more Lego set ever, this would be the set, as it is the neatest new concept I’ve seen in a long time.

If that doesn’t convince TLG to release it, I don’t know what will.

Perhaps a claim that someone might buy two, and an assurance that it would save LEGO from financial ruin?

Cheers

I claim that I might buy two, and I assure you that it would save my LEGO (Port
Block, critically affected by the rising sea levels resulting from global
warming) from financial ruin.

You could buy 4, and put Port Block up on legs.

I really cannot see how LEGO can ethically release this kit since it was created
as an exclusive for the employees of Vesta. I would be sorely disappointed in
TLG if they did such a thing. "Limited ediition" and "exclusive" mean something.
As "The most trusted corporation in the world" or something like that--breaking
their agreement would be a violation of trust--even if Vesta said it was OK.
