The Brick Fan
“Overall, the Mini Volkswagen T1 Camper Van (40079) is a very nice free exclusive from LEGO. It was very nicely designed and it also makes a nice display piece right next to the 10220 version. The T1 Camper Van has the same red and white colors as the larger original 10220... More version. Although it is 4-stud wide and 10-stud long, LEGO has remarkably pulled it off the T1 Camper Van’s distinctive look including the Westfalia pop top roof.”

“This polybag is a great little model and was quite simple to build, taking just a few minutes. It has a surprisingly good resemblance to the full size T1 Camper Van, for such a small build.”

About Creator Promotional

The LEGO Creator theme consists of a variety of subthemes that revolve around sets that focus on buildings, creatures, vehicles, robots and recently more specialized sets such as botanical and even the Chinese New Year. Many of these sets have fallen under the 3-in-1 label which include instructions in a single set to provide multiple alternative models. Originally created in 2001 with a focus on larger bucket sets, the LEGO Creator theme has expanded outside just bricks to later include minifigures.

Promotional was introduced in 2001 and currently consists of 46 sets. As of today, 4278 Large Tub is the most valuable Promotional set with an estimated new/factory sealed value of $93.
