[UniqueBuilder]

Hi there, fellow AFOLs/TFOLs! :-P

In the next 24 days I will put up the suprises from the LEGO City advent calendar, one at a time! ;-) Let's start off with a general view of it: *wub*

The front

Some funny scenes depicted on the box. *sweet*

Sorry for the shine... :-(

December 1st coming up soon! ;-)

December 1st:

A firefighter! *wub* Suits well for me... ;-)

Not much more to say about this guy. I think there will be more accesories for him later, just like last year. :-)

Stay tuned for tomorrow's surprise! ;-)

Excellent UB ;-)

How did you manage to keep it MISB until now ? I opened and sorted mine more than 1 month ago X-D

Tsk. No self control some people. :-| ;-)

So, yeah, nothing too special today, but so what? It's an advent calendar, and it's Lego. I have to say, some of my (new) friends thought it was kind of sweet that I had a Lego advent calendar.

I've been very restrained and I'm opening mine day by day as well. Although as I said somewhere else, how the Tabletown budget is supposed to fund the MASSIVELY bloated fire service, I just don't know.

Well, thanks for spoiling the surprise. |-/ Please write "spoilers present" next time.

[jifel]

Oh yeah, it's December 1st

[SirNadroj]

Thanks, but when I opened mine this morning, the bag wasn't like that, it only had one small hole! 8-|

[Freddie]

I too didn't open mine until today. Altough, I didn't have much choice - it wasn't securely in my posession until late last night (30th nov.), so obviously I could wait a few hours.

There are lots of neat details on the front. I'm curious, which pieces are used for the scates? And the golden piece the thief holds in his hand? It's also neat to see TLC for once combine sets in ways that are unusual for them. For example 7239 w/o trailer parked in the station, with its boat being used by the police. Normal in every home, but not for TLC.

I thought that was kinda self explanatory.. :-/ Could a moderator add that in the sub-title anyways? 8-|

[Batbrick]

A great idea UniqueBuilder! *y*

Unfortunately for me, living in Tasmania, it is December SECOND! X-O

Ah, well, atleast we get Christmas first! :-P

[iamded]

Woo! Can't wait to see the rest! *sweet*

Ok,please forgive me if this has been answered before, but what exactly is the advent calender? Are you supposed to open only a pakage a day? Are the contents inside unknown when you buy it?

You don't know what an advent calendar is? *wacko* That's a new one.. :-P But yea, you are correct. You open one suprise each day from December 1st to December 24th (christmas). The contents are unknown, otherwise it wouldn't be a suprise.. :-P

[steelharbingerofdeath]

i could not believe how many spares when i opened mine. and whomever complained of spoilers, err the first 3 "surprises" are on the back of the box.

Ya, i know. I bit embarasing for a lego fan, but at least now i know. Are they numbered? Or are there just random packages? Are all advent calenders the same?

not embarrasing... yes they are numbered, 1-24 but some have extra to new year, not all are the same obviously lego advent calanders have lego, most others have chocolate. you can get many themed calanders such as simpsons, doctor who, disney.

[Derek]

Why are there so many spare parts in the calanders? It seems that 30-40% of the parts per day arent even used in the model.

[steelharbingerofdeath]

take it as a blessing not a curse.
