Whether you’re reliving past adventures, planning future travels or simply want to celebrate your passion for camper vans, you’ll love LEGO’s rendition of the classic Volkswagen T2 Camper Van. Take your time building the van, then explore its detailed interior before placing it on display to remind you that there’s a world of adventure just around the corner. We made a little film of the unboxing and building of the VW bus. The actual unboxing took quite some time…. ie TOO LONG!!! Contains 2207 pieces and includes authentic design details like the iconic large front windscreen and the sliding door

When I was asked to review the Playmobil VW Camper Van recently, I jumped at the chance — obviously it’s really for the boys, but I feel like my childhood dream has finally come true. It’s a 74 piece set, that — as well as the vehicle — includes two little Playmobil people, and everything they need for a mini adventure. Photo Credit: The Listed Home. Photo Credit: The Listed Home.

Playmobil currently offers a nice selection of fully-licensed Porsches and two classic VWs, the Beetle, and the very cool T1 Camping Bus you can see now. For more on Playmobil’s ranges for 2021, see the in depth interview which ran in the March edition of Toy World. Playmobil has announced two special edition Volkswagen additions to its range for 2021. The limited edition 70826 Volkswagen T1 Camping Bus and 70827 Volkswagen Beetle will come with a fresh new look and extra features.This mini VW Tent comes with side and rear doors just like the real thing! It even has an opening safari window. Providing UPF50+ protection, this is a great choice for parents looking to protect their kids from the sun during a day at the beach, park or even festival. Playmobil has worked with VW to create a perfect scaled down version of the Volkswagen T1 Camping Bus — it’s an official, licensed product and if — like me — you’ve always wanted a VW split screen camper, this is the perfect alternative to the real thing! The two special edition Volkswagen vehicles will include an individual serial number from a limited production run. When it comes to putting the tent up it takes a matter of seconds thanks to its pop-up construction. Taking down is just as easy and the included carry bag makes transporting and storing this unique kid’s tent easy. Too cool for school, the Official Volkswagen Kids Camper Van Tent is based on the original T1 camper van, the most iconic van of all time. Perfect for indoors and outdoors, this mini version of the 1965 classic split-screen classic is able to accommodate up to three children.

And these toys are no good for children to play with, either. They're too heavy and delicate to be safe and aren't much fun to play with compared to a tiny toy car. And while there's nothing wrong with these small cars, they aren't the most detailed models. Surely, there must be something accurate enough for a petrolhead to enjoy, but robust enough for a child to play with? And, as well as the VW vamper van itself, you’ll also find lots of dinky little accessories. Photo Credit: The Listed Home. Photo Credit: The Listed Home.
