lego inside tour 2019 1

If you want to know everything about the contents of the Lego inside tour, I suggest you read the very detailed report that Jean-Baptiste kindly sent me aka Kasparov, who attended the first session of this year.

Then it's up to you to form an opinion on this (paid) three-day experience in the heart of the LEGO universe which allows you to meet designers, visit some emblematic places, discover the brick-making process and to leave with some nice memories including an exclusive set.

I've been wanting to take part in the LEGO Inside Tour for years, but obviously the price has always been a drag. Until my wife and friends gave me this gift for my 40th birthday last summer.

I did not have much hope of being selected on the first attempt, and I did receive an email in mid-November telling me that it would not be for this time. But at the end of February I received another email telling me that it was actually ok for the first session of this year.

So: * \ o / *

Anyway, I arrived in Billund on Tuesday evening and while accommodation was arranged at the historic LEGOLAND Hotel, I found out that we were actually in the new Castle Hotel.

Just the hotel and the room were already "Wow".

The rooms in this hotel have a safe with a 4-digit padlock, and for a puzzle to be solved, you get 2 polybags once the safe is opened.

Composition of the group (34 participants, 1 person did not come):

20 Americans, 6 English, 2 Germans, 2 Canadians, 2 Dutch, 1 Norwegian and 1 French * \ o / *

4000034 The LEGO System House

Set instructions 4000034 The LEGO System House offered to the participants of the different sessions of the LEGO Inside Tour 2019 are now online at LEGO and we therefore discover the contents of this exclusive box: it is a reproduction of the System House, a Billund building inaugurated in 1958 and then modified in 1961 with the addition of a floor.

These premises served as a rear base for the various employees in charge of the group's international commercial activities and during the inauguration of the premises, the sales representatives from the different geographical areas were on the roof alongside the flag of the country they represented.

In the box, ten minifigs and enough to assemble the building with an interior composed of a few offices. As a bonus, a unique 3D printed part bearing the reference 6286866 which is used on the drawing board, which can be replaced by a set of more classic parts as indicated in the instructions (see below).

As usual, if you haven't taken part in the LEGO Inside Tour and you absolutely want to add this box to your collection, you will need to skip by eBay ou bricklink and prepare to shell out a few hundred dollars.

4000025 LEGO Ferguson Tractor

And not just any tractor since it is a reproduction of the LEGO model dating from 1952 (below) then sold more than 75000 copies in the first year of its marketing.

Legend has it that it was the profits from the sale of this toy that allowed LEGO to invest in the development of the bricks we still use today.

The very exclusive set 4000025 was offered to each of the participants of the LEGO Inside Tour 2018. If this box interests you, it is now on eBay or Bricklink that it is happening, knowing that 80 copies are offered for each session (each participant and speaker receives a copy) and that three sessions were organized this year, for a total of at least 240 copies distributed.

Participants in the two sessions scheduled for next September will receive a different set.
