LEGO set 10258, “London Bus”, depicts a London bus in the Creator Expert range. Released in 2017, it contains 1686 pieces and belongs to the Creator root theme, with the emphasis on a detailed buildable vehicle model.

“London Bus” focuses on an urban vehicle closely associated with London, presented as a stand-alone model rather than as part of a story setting. Within Creator, and specifically Creator Expert, it fits among sets built around a recognizable subject and a display-oriented construction style.
