LEGO 10279 Volkswagen T2 Camper Van designer video revealed

The designer video for the new LEGO for Adults 10279 Volkswagen T2 Camper Van has now been released, taking the set on a road trip touring every detail of the vehicular model.

A trip to the beach is what’s in store for the next LEGO designer video as the official YouTube channel is now home to the usual creator commentary for 10279 Volkswagen T2 Camper Van.

Sven Franic helms this latest recording, with plenty of comparisons drawn to the real-life camper van, on an actual beach no less. The presence of a Volkswagen T2 Camper Van alongside the set helps to showcase the finer details dotted throughout the construction.

Sven points out that one of the more challenging phases of the build came from the steering function, with the interior wheel not having any sway over the feature at all. In fact, any and all steering is operated by the spare tyre on the front of the van. This is explained to be a direct reference to a LEGO Model Team set.

“There is just so much positivity behind the huge community behind the aircool Volkswagens and are always there to enhance on the road and I wanted other people to have a piece of that.” commented the LEGO designer on his inspiration for the set.

The LEGO for Adults 10279 Volkswagen T2 Camper Van is available now worldwide for £149.99 / $179.99 / €159.99 and we’ve got an in-depth review to take you on another road trip for this nostalgic model.

LEGO has been a part of my life ever since I was young. It all started when my brother passed down 7657 AT-ST to me. It’s guided me through my early years, through school and eventually through my degree in journalism. I still have all my collection proudly on display, including my many NINJAGO sets, my favourite of all the LEGO Group’s themes. Outside of Brick Fanatics I am an avid gamer and enjoy a good game of Dungeons & Dragons.
