wooster Posted October 1, 2018 Posted October 1, 2018 I just saw the new November 2018 calendar on the Lego website. I was very disappointed that there are no 'gifts with purchase' mentioned, or other seasonal sets aside from the Winter Village Fire Station. I was hoping to see some new polybags, or other small gifts that might be available this holiday season. Are my expectations wrong? Should we not be seeing new gifts with purchase and other seasonal sets in November? Quote
jpx Posted October 3, 2018 Posted October 3, 2018 I was hoping so too. But there must be something, why have they announced the Christmas Carousel if they will not give it away? Quote
MAB Posted October 4, 2018 Posted October 4, 2018 Maybe they have realised that if they advertise the giveaways this early, then fewer orders are placed in October, waiting for the free gifts with November orders. Quote
TeriXeri Posted October 8, 2018 Posted October 8, 2018 (edited) The minifigure frame promo is coming next week (15-31 October), maybe the Christmas Carousel is early December. Edited October 8, 2018 by TeriXeri Quote
Blackpool Posted October 9, 2018 Posted October 9, 2018 I was wondering the same thing myself. Usually we get 1 freebee announced for purchases in November and another in December. Seems like the rotate every other year with the type of set but its odd to see nothing presented on the Nov. calendar Quote
sunhuntin Posted October 18, 2018 Posted October 18, 2018 (edited) Brickfinder has revealed on Facebook a LEGO giftbox shown on the Chinese calendar. it opens out to show a scene inside and has two minifigs. I assume it is for November, but not sure how it is being marketed. Here it is on Bricksethttps://brickset.com/sets/40292-1/Christmas-Gift-Box Edited October 18, 2018 by sunhuntin add link Quote
kasmca Posted October 18, 2018 Posted October 18, 2018 Maybe 40292 and/or 40293 will be givaways for Brick Friday (Thanksgiving) with minimum purchase. I also noticed set 5005253 https://brickset.com/sets/5005253-1/Christmas-Ornament-2018-Reindeer-head Looks like one of the tree ornament series we has a few years back that came in the silk bags. There was 5004420: Toy Soldier in 2016, 5003083: Christmas Ornament in 2015 and 5002813: Christmas Train Ornament in 2014. I don't recall seeing one last year. Here is an in depth review in German: https://www.promobricks.de/lego-seasonal-5005253-christmas-ornament-2018-im-review/68821 Quote
