As some of you all have already got your hands on the LEGO London Bus (10258) with the exclusive LEGO London Bus license from the LEGO Brand Stores in the London, LEGO Singapore is launching their own exclusive gift with purchase when you buy the highly popular set.
The interesting thing is that there are TWO different sets of gift with purchase this time which will be exclusive to each of the two operators of the LEGO Certified Stores here in Singapore.
LEGO Certified Store (LCS) are managed slightly different from the LEGO Brand Stores (LBR) around the world which the main difference being that they are not directly owned by the LEGO brand but actually third party licensees. We also don’t get the same perks like the LEGO VIP program like some of our counter parts around the world.
The Brick Shop LEGO Certified Store is giving away an exclusive London Bus EZ-Link card with every purchase of the LEGO London Bus (10258). The EZ-link card is a stored value card that allows us to utilise Singapore’s public transportation system.
The other promotion from the Bricksworld LEGO Certified Stores would be an exclusive limited edition LEGO London Hackney Cab.
While I can understand the need to differentiate their two companies, it does look like the EZ-link card might be the one to go for as the LEGO London Hackney Cab looks easy enough to replicate once the instructions are released.
The LEGO London Bus (10258) will retail on August 1st for SGD$199.90 at all LEGO Certified Stores in Singapore.
