Earlier today, Brickset uploaded an image of a new LEGO Creator London Bus (40220) polybag which features a double decker bus. There’s no word on how to obtain the polybag at this point as there is nothing listed on the LEGO Store calendar for July. We’ll have to wait and see if it is part of an August promo or not since the it goes great with the upcoming LEGO Creator Big Ben (10253) which will be releasing mid-June for VIPs and to the general public on July 1.
We’ll also have to see if this is a regional set or not as it does feature something prominent from the UK and we usually don’t get stuff like that here in the US. If it is, you can always build your own with the instructions but you’ll be missing the stickers for the advertisements on the sides of the bus.

That’ll be Sherlock Holmes’ house so it might have international appeal.
Nah, its a classic London bus not a London sight seeing bus.
Sorry, just refering to ‘now’s the time to visit’ on the side… You could just take the top off to make it a sight seer though!
Nice mini model
if anything this could lightly suggest the possibility of Sherlock in Demensions considering sherlock’s address is 221b Baker’s street, even though the bus says 211b Westminster.
I haven’t really thought of Sherlock being in Lego dimensions, hat would be incredible though
a modest amount of research reveals that London bus route 211 runs right by Big Ben.
Promo for purchasing Big Ben, perhaps?
I wonder if the background suggests lego are going to do the London eye next
I think you will find it will be given away to those who purchase sets in the new LEGO store that is being built in Leicester Square and is rumoured to open in July/August. This is similar to the ones they gave away when they opened the LEGO stores in London Westfield and Stratfield Westfield.
Here’s an update for anyone that hasn’t seen. This is the giveaway for spending $75 or more at the Lego store for August. I’m going to break down and get the Mini Cooper and snag this at the same time.
