Set No: 40512  Name: Fun and Funky VIP Add On Pack polybag

40512-1 (Inv) Fun and Funky VIP Add On Pack polybag
148 Parts, 2021
Sets: LEGO Brand

Could anyone confirm whether this catalog addition means this will become a "regular"
set to buy? Or perhaps something one could buy with VIP points?

I seem to remember these were "tested" in the UK not long ago but since then
I haven't heard any news on these, hence my surprise seeing it pop up in
our BL catalog.

They have been doing the trials in the UK but no word yet whether this one or
others will be more widespread.

Even if it remains as a UK only trial, it is a valid LEGO product (like any regional
item such as bricktober or comic con) so not surprising it is in the catalogue.

From what I know nothing has changed in regards to the availability of this set
(and the following VIP "Add On" sets). So it is still a test product only available
to selected VIP members in the UK. But it does exist and many are for sale on
Ebay, so there is no reason why it should not have an entry on BL.

I think its being trialled but I dont know if its as a set or a purchasable thing
with VIP points.
