The event countdown...

... has to wait for just one more day! :tongue:
Can't you count at all?

It's fantastic to see the bright light at the end of the tunnel already.
One more sleep and then 10 days to go. Yahooo! :cry_happy:

Holy cow!
Now I'm envious.

But, without further ado:
Ladies and gentlemen, I'm proud to start the 2012 event countdown!

This year we have a brand new experience: It's a quiz! :oh:

I haven't built anything this time, but have taken some closeups from sets with numbers.
It may be taken from decals, printed parts, may be the set number, but not necessarily... :devil:
Your task is to guess what set was used on the photo.

We'll start with a very easy one:

The one with the most right answers after ten days of guessing will win

- nothing but my sincerest respect! :grin:

If it's not I'd be amazed, seeing as it's completely identical to one of the stickers in 10219. :wink:

And Holodoc, this was a very cool idea for this year's countdown, it's going to be fun to see what you'll come up with! :thumbup:

No wonder!

Look at the colors and the details that appear at the edges.
It's a small number, btw.

No ideas?

Okay, more hints:
- The number shown is (obviously) NOT part of the set number.
- the number is ca. 1,5 mm high. Okay- it's not small, it's very small! :blush:
- and located on a decal that sticks on part x143, which is dark bluish gray.
