About this deal

The only hire vehicle is in LEGO Indiana Jones 2 game in Bangkok, but this simple brown and green vehicle from 2009 never appeared in any sets or films. I haven’t purchased many small or mid-sized Creator sets recently, as my regular LEGO diet has consisted of a main course of Star Wars with sides of City and Collectible Minifigures, with a variety of sets from other themes tossed in there for good measure.

Really fun to make and has song lovely details, like the pink seats and the tassels dangling from the roof. I specialize in seeking out the latest LEGO news and products, as well as being an expert on all things LEGO gaming.There isn’t much to dislike about this vehicle, except maybe the fact that I don’t actually have a Ninjago city to put it in.

I think it's a great model of a Tuk Tuk, but I think it would be better as a smaller vehicle for minifigures, maybe with a little market stall or street scene. There are some relatively new pieces included in this set, including the 2x4 angled plates in dark azur. Brickset, the Brickset logo and all content not covered by The LEGO Group's copyright is, unless otherwise stated, ©1997-2024 Brickset ltd. Unlike 40468 Yellow Taxi, this vehicle does look like it accommodates passengers, and is also strikingly colourful with some relatively new pieces.It features a host of realistic details including front and back seats, hanging decorations, a fire extinguisher and Indian-style lunchboxes in a pallet on the roof, so kids have all they need to create fantastic stories.

The set is based on the auto rickshaws, commonly known as Three-wheelers or tuk-tuks used in India and Sri Lanka. The exposure time of about 15 to 20 seconds shows the movement of the trains due to motion blur and a stationary taxi. LEGO® fans aged 7 and up who love building and playing with car toys can use the Tuk Tuk to stage stories on their own or add it to other LEGO playsets in their collections for more fun. Most purchases from business sellers are protected by the Consumer Contract Regulations 2013 which give you the right to cancel the purchase within 14 days after the day you receive the item.Just like the 8-wide Speed Champions it would look ridiculously oversized next to typical City vehicles and buildings. Certainly looks a lot better than the Taxi, which looks like a cut 'n' shut of two different size and age vehicles! This is a beautiful representation of a TukTuk, with some lovely decorative detail that sets it apart from anything I'd have scratch built, and to the amused delight of a younger family member, is exactly the right scale for Lego Friends minifigs to use.
