Nothing more exciting than when you find out they are going to make something you have always wanted. On the flip side it does come with a certain amount of trepidation as you worry if they will screw it up.

I have never commented on a KZfaq video before but I feel compelled to share with you how much I honestly enjoy your channel. Your sense of humor, creativity, whit, surgical delivery of dad jokes, and love for LEGO come through in every video. As a fellow AFOL and father of two (8 and 5), you’re love for your family comes through in your work too. Looking forward to the next video!

Id love a large-scale Nautilus submarine. They could make it like the one from the movie and tie into Disney lovers too.

GWP sets are the biggest scam Lego ever envisioned. Instead of a product that exists to be bought, you need to pay a large sum for something else, and then get told that it is a gift. Why not put them on store shelves? Because that way they don't have to pay the stores. Why not sell them online exclusively? Because they know full well that people won't want to miss out on it. Consider: you don't want a specific Lego set right now, have just purchased, I don't know, maybe another large set, and then boom. A GWP that you love. Now you gotta pay 250+ for something you didn't really want. The GIFT is not given, it is sold by proxy. And if you really wanted that and missed out? No problem, just buy the set from bricklink...which is owned by... Lego. Um. Hmm.

I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again. Jules Verne saw or had visions of the future and just tried to describe it in his novels within the confines of the technology they had at the time. Space rockets, submarines, ease of global travel, Nemo.

Maybe the train homage is to 'the Jules Verne', an express train that linked Paris and Nantes in France. I looked on the Lego site. I am a huge Jules Verne fan. I'm afraid I am underwhelmed with the set. Maybe Lego will make some sets based on some of the fantastic fan built sets on Lego Ideas.

Also, if you click on the popular tab of your videos page, this video has the second highest views. Just think what the actual video review of the set could do. Think of the Jules Verne jokes you could make. Think of the costumes you could wear. It's really a win win win all around.

I think any promos will show up in your cart at the time of purchase, backorder or not. However, I've also heard of GWPs selling out before the backordered item ships, so it's usually safer to add at least one thing to your purchase that is in stock.

Wait. Did I hear you promise to make a video of this set when it's released? Still patiently (sort-of) waiting. If there's one thing I've learned from my husband over the years it's that if you just casually bring something up over and over and over again you'll eventually get what you want because your spouse is sick of hearing about it. This is why he has two motorcycles. Anyway, let's see if it works here.

I was very pleased with this post. Jules Verne fans play Lego. It somehow seems to go together that young Jules Verne readers will later become adult fans of Lego. My personal dream would of course also be the Nautilus. In two versions: a small, really affordable one for young fans who might come to Jules Verne via the cool Lego model and a large version for the AfoLs. Of course, I'm also a fan of Jules Verne's books and not the kitschy films. But I wouldn't be so strict if Lego followed the Holywood versions. For me, the essence of Jules Verne is not the technical details in his novellas, but his way of dreaming the future and taking us there. By the way, my favorite book is not science fiction by him, but "The survivors of the Jonathan". Many greetings from Germany!
