Mine arrived yesterday having been a back order. No keyring and no sticker, but I'm just happy to have the car!

^ I know some people really hate them, but I can't imagine going to that amount of trouble then not putting the stickers on!

And I can't fathom Lego designing such beautiful sets and then slapping stickers on them that cheapen the whole experience.

I avoid stickers like the plague.

Wife ordered mine on March 8th. Came today and got the Mustang, marvel figs, key chain and the bumper sticker!

Ordered my Mustang - with free keychain and Marvel minifigures pack -  through Lego Shop and received today.  I became a bit suspicious when I noticed that it was sent in a FedEx marked box with a FedEx generated label.  I opened the box and immediately noticed the set wrapped in bubble wrap........not how I normally receive from Lego . Also, I smelled a strong cleaning solution.  After unwrapping the bubble wrap, it was obvious that my original order from Lego experienced damage along the way and FedEx decided to repackage the items.

As you can see, the Mustang set suffered damage which was not only crushing but a bit soaked with some kind of cleaning solution.  The keychain survived and the minifigures pack had a bit of a smell but luckily didn't get damaged by the cleaning solution since Lego has no more in stock to replace.  I called Customer Service (CS) and explained the situation and they are sending me a new Mustang set along with a return shipping package label to send back the damaged set.  I told them the set is in the garage drying out - still a little damp and smells - and will send back once dried and will wrap in plastic.  CS said they will ship out the replacement set right-a-way before receipt of the damaged set.......oh, how nice of them :). 

Lego has done everything right, which we all know that Lego CS is one of the best out there.  I'm just disappointed in FedEx to allow the delivery of the package like nothing was out of the ordinary.

That damage is so bad I laughed aloud! At least Lego was good enough to replace it for you.

Received the 2nd one yesterday.

Geez, you should see the other guy.  I'd probably complain to Fedex as well.  That is completely unacceptable!

Hi can anyone advise as to whether or not the mustang fits in a glass Detolf cabinet? Measurements suggest it should but that doesn't always translate in to reality! Thanks.

Wow, this has really brought me out of my mini dark age (Oct 2018 - March 2019). What an amazing set! I loved every minute of the build (which I somehow managed to make last 3 weeks). If Lego ever did an even larger version with remote controlled hidden motor / steering, lights and sound, I would remortgage to get it!

Went to the Leicester Square store today and they had so many mustang bumper stickers behind the counter. Managed to get one even though I didn’t buy a Mustang.

The store in Sheffield had a lot of bumper stickers also as well as the keychain.
