Hi all,

I was just wondering what the deal is with adding a new set to the catalog.

After visiting a Lego certified store today I received the 40450 Amelia Earhart
tribute set, which will be available from February 22 until stocks last. As far
as I can tell, this set has not been submitted to the catalog and no pending
details are available.

Can I add this set to the catalog?

Thanks,

Steve

One of the reasons I would want to keep this set is the really intriguing story
behind Amelia Earhart.

Of course in Star Trek Voyager we saw what happened to her but nowadays it still
is a mystery.

Just saw this one popping up in the catalog.
I'm one of the many people eagerly awaiting arrival of this set but AFAIK
no date was published on when this was going to be a GWP.

So imagine my surprise reading that this set was a GWP when there's absolute
radio silence over here in Europe (again: AFAIK).
Is Lego starting with GWP's reserved for certain areas? Or does anyone have
info on when this set will be a GWP over here in Europe?

Not Europe, Erikk, but can't be far behind:

https://www.brickfanatics.com/lego-40450-amelia-earhart-tribute-is-already-available-in-australia/

https://www.brothers-brick.com/2021/02/21/lego-40450-amelia-earheart-tribute-gift-with-purchase-set-revealed-news/

Which is somehow as it should be, considering where she was last seen in life

What I don't see on the box-art and would like to know, is what's the
piece count? Anyone?

Piece count is 203.

And yes the set will be available as a GWP online and in stores (where open)
both in the USA and in Europe next month.

I love this GWP set. I pulled the trigger, ordered the Porsche 911, cashed out
some of my VIP points and I look forward to both of them. I rarely build sets
and display them, but these 2 will be nice. I may be tempted to build an upscaled
version of the Vega 5B "Red Bus" in scale to the Sopwith Camel that I have built
and have on display.

Please, be tempted. We all know if someone could do it, it is you.
I am already looking forward to see it!

She is a beautiful bird!

I think (if I recall correctly) it was among Lockheed's first aircraft designs
produced, going above and beyond as fledgling manufacture/engineering companies
often do.

An aircraft design worthy of your creative efforts, Miro!

btw, where can your Sopwith Camel build be seen?

Okay, I misunderstood. It's the Sopwith Camel normal scale Lego set your
talking about, not an upscale version of it. Got it.
