    Oh, man - that is amazing !

    That looks like they've used a proper chassis, and substituted the carbon fibre body for a Lego body, so in theory, that bad boy could be driven (not too vigorously, it may fall apart). That is a piece of art!

    I've manage to get a 30192 Ferrari F40 from my brother who was in Hong Kong the other week. Its a nice poly tbh. They are pull and go cars as well. The poly has a nice official Ferrari product stamp on the back of the packet.

    I wish that I can just go to the gas station and buy it, there doesn't seem to be a little of people there I know who have cars. And I guess, those that do have cars are not interested in buy/sell these.
  • SiESiE Member Posts: 237
    you can get them on ebay for around £10 if you really want them. My brother only managed to get me one but I wouldnt mind the set.
  • bsiu922bsiu922 SF Bay Area, CAMember Posts: 439

    My pessimistic side still says this won't come to the U.S. It's not impossible, just doesn't seem likely. Think about how big of a distribution this would be in the U.S. compared to just H.K. or the U.K. I think it's why Shell/Lego promos are more rare in the U.S. My optimistic side says it would happen close to holidays, if it's going to happen.

    If they ever become available, there would be no better time than around the inaugural Formula 1 GP in Texas on November 18th...

  • jadedancjadedanc USAMember Posts: 1,303
    I would be extremely excited to get ANY of these sets, if anyone has one extra :) One would make me hapy but if you have more, I will give them a very loving home!!

    I'm from the Philippines and just picked up the minifig set. Surprised to see the torso printings are stickers :(

  • LegobrandonCPLegobrandonCP CanadaMember Posts: 1,910
    I hope this promo comes to NA soon. Gas prices in BC are starting to drop to about $1.19 per litre. :D
  • HuwHuw Brickset Towers, Hampshire, UKAdministrator Posts: 6,490
    ^ wow!! Jealous of that price! Its nearer $3 here!
  • CoolsplashCoolsplash Member Posts: 935
    I guess we from Pakistan will get this Shell promo in next 2 years :P But for that much money, the price of the poly will slip to around 20-30 bucks....I might be wrong...as in Hongkong you get it on purchase of 50 H$....right?
  • bsiu922bsiu922 SF Bay Area, CAMember Posts: 439
    i saw it at a local store sell each polybag between $130-$190 each. I think it cost $20 each when you got it at the gas station
  • CoolsplashCoolsplash Member Posts: 935
    Its better to make some with spare bricks from collection or get some from BL :P
  • CoolsplashCoolsplash Member Posts: 935
    Well, a good friend is based in Malaysia, and is trying to get hold of these....so I can help my brethren from Brickset if they need these. With reference to following post I made:

    Does anyone have definite info on when this promo will come to the US?
  • CoolsplashCoolsplash Member Posts: 935
    I have a few sets of the Ferrari polybags of 6 cars which I can ship anywhere in the world. If anyone is interested please feel free to send me a PM :)
  • icey117icey117 DenmarkMember Posts: 506
    Anyone got the dates for when this will hit each nation? Shell hp or so?
  • CoolsplashCoolsplash Member Posts: 935
    @icey117, we heard these will hit other nations in first quarter 2013 but its February now and no news of it yet. If you are interested I can sell you a set of 6 cars at a decent enough price and ship it anywhere in the world. Do let me know :)
  • BastaBasta Australia Member Posts: 1,259
    Just letting those that don’t know, the shell promo started today in Australia. Although there is no sign of the extra Minifigure poly if you collect the other six :(

    I got the first 3, Ferrari 150 Italia F1 Car, Scuderia Ferrari Truck and the 458 Italia, as the Shell I went to had the first 3 weeks sets for sale.
  • LegobrandonCPLegobrandonCP CanadaMember Posts: 1,910
    ^ For sale without purchase of gas?

    You have spend $40 on V-Power to get one at $6, or they are $8 without fuel purchase.

    I hate this thread, because I can't get them in the states yet :(

    I'm so hoping to do so this summer.

    ^ That's what eBay is for. I couldn't wait for them to come to the USA (if they ever do). I have two sets of cars and two of the pit crew. One set of cars came from a Brickset member. It was $70 including shipping for the six cars. I paid $49.99 plus $10 shipping on eBay for another set of six. I needed one set to open and another to keep sealed. The cars are excellent and if this promotion ever does come to the USA, I'll get at least one more F150 Italia so I can build two and use the #6 sticker and green helmet for Felipe Massa.

    In case you were wondering, yes, I like Formula 1 and Fernando Alonso and Ferrari!
  • HemelHemel Member Posts: 33
    Are these still available in HK?
  • ChanMcLChanMcL Member Posts: 1,224
    Surely if they are not available in HK, you can still find them in In's Point
  • HemelHemel Member Posts: 33
    Yeah, I'm heading over on Monday, so plan to hit In's Point and CTMA
  • bsiu922bsiu922 SF Bay Area, CAMember Posts: 439
    Good Luck!
  • ChanMcLChanMcL Member Posts: 1,224
    Here is a sneak picture in In's Point... (I'm not suppose to take pictures in there)

    The first 2 are in In's Point.

    Then these 2 are in Mong Kok, right next to the bridge walkway at Let's Go.

    $149 HKD for the whole set of Ferrari's? Not bad. Equals about $20 CDN.

    Been 4 or 5 years since I was at HK, only went to their TRU.
  • ChanMcLChanMcL Member Posts: 1,224
    For the base only ;) haha
