LEGO Technic You Design It, We Make It Winner Visits LEGO HQ

July 26, 2013 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

LEGO has recently released a video of Egor Karshiev (rm8), the winner of the “You Design It, We Make It” Co-Creation Technic Challenge, visiting the LEGO headquarters in Billund, Denmark and seeing the new LEGO Technic 4×4 Crawler Exclusive Edition (41999) in production. In the video, Egor meets with all the members of the Technic team that was involved with the creation of the new 4×4 Crawler. He also got to discuss with members the new design of the set and seeing his competition’s models. After that, Egor got to go in the LEGO factory and got to see how the set was assembled and packaged up for shipment. It is a once in a lifetime experience and it was great that Egor got to take part in it. You can read his review of the set here. The set will be available in LEGO stores as well as on Shop@Home on August 1st and will retail for $199.99 for 1585 pieces.

LEGO Technic 41999 4x4 Crawler Exclusive Edition

Flickr user Ryan Smith, aka The Scooter Guy, has posted images of the new LEGO Technic 4×4 Crawler Exclusive Edition (41999). The images are originally from Egor Karshiev (rm8) who was the winner of the “You Design It, We Make It” Co-Creation Technic Challenge from a few months back. Egor went to Denmark for vacation and got to see the set being produced. As the winner, he has received the very first copy of the set off the production line and has done a very in-depth review of the 4×4 Crawler. I highly recommend you read it to see all the little details about the set.

The set contains 1585 pieces and retails for $199.99. It will be available for pre-order at Shop@Home on August 1st. There will only be 20,000 sets being produced. After reading Egor’s review and seeing images of it, will you be picking up the Crawler as well?

Jeppe Juul Jensen from the official Technic: Designers blog has posted a sneak peak of what the winning 4×4 Crawler will look like from the “You Design It, We Make It” Technic Challenge. The model was created by Egor Karshiev (rm88) which took him about 7 weeks of designing and building.
