In a sponsored Facebook ad from South African LEGO Certified Store, Yellow Brick Company, we got our first look at the LEGO Amelia Earhart Tribute (40450) set. It features the red Lockheed 5B Vega which she used to fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean in 1932. The ad shows that you have to spend R2500 or more on any LEGO product to get it.
