Actor Builder Posted December 29, 2015 (edited) Many felt that LEGO let us down with the most recent Winter Village set, which was just a remake of The Toy Shop. To capitalize upon that feeling, I have created a Winter Village set with the sole purpose of being let down. Down six feet, that is. Introducing: The Winter Village Undertakers! Winter Village Undertakers by Actor Builder, on Flickr -Say goodbye to your loved ones this holiday season with the NEW Winter Village Undertakers! -Loosely inspired by Vincent Price's "A Comedy of Terrors" , this lively and colorful set will be a wonderful addition to your Winter Village Collection! -This set includes The Undertaker's office and Funeral Home, Coffin-Makers Workshop, Hearse, Graveyard and an Open Casket Ceremony! -Minifigures include: Undertaker, Coffin Maker/Grave Digger, Sad Man, Sad Woman, Sad Boy, Sad Girl, Corpse, and Reverend B. Brickley! Dig a hole in the graveyard! The Graveyard by Actor Builder, on Flickr Take a ride in the hearse! Hearse by Actor Builder, on Flickr Help make coffins in the shed! Grave Digger's Shed by Actor Builder, on Flickr Make funeral arrangements in the main building! Undertaker's Office Interior by Actor Builder, on Flickr There are more pictures on my "flickR" page. I think this link shall work. Not the best quality, but holiday travels do what they do. Thanks for viewing! Comments and criticisms, puns and witticisms are welcome!

Bryboy747 Posted December 29, 2015 (edited) Wow! Nice build! Awesome coffin design. very creative! Edited December 29, 2015 by Bryboy747 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KlodsBrik Posted December 29, 2015 Great build. It somehow manages to give one the comfy christmas feeling even though its a funeral building. The horse carriage is looking great as well !! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Withacee Posted December 30, 2015 Great idea. We've been toying with the idea of a graveyard in our WV for some time. The hearse and the "coffin shed" are terrific. Love the "respectful, placid smiles" on the minifigs Best of luck, and keep clicking those bricks together. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
New_guy Posted December 30, 2015 Excellent looking hearse! Very impactful and unique choice of subject. I won't forget this build anytime soon! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Emma Posted December 30, 2015 What a unique concept, and well done The hearse is really nicely crafted - it it my favorite part of this build. I feel a bit sorry for the fellow who has to dig the grave in the frozen ground. The only thing that I'm too fond of is the large black chimney, it seems almost too prominent and very ominous...

Actor Builder Posted December 31, 2015 what, no skeletons? Nope! They were all busy playing poker. It somehow manages to give one the comfy christmas feeling even though its a funeral building. That was the idea! Glad to hear it worked out! Love the "respectful, placid smiles" on the minifigs Ha! Only the workers are smiling, because they get work every time someone dies. The other minifigures are all sad. Or dead. I won't forget this build anytime soon! Wow! Thanks for the Super-Compliment! I'm glad I could carve something into your long-term memory! The only thing that I'm too fond of is the large black chimney, it seems almost too prominent and very ominous... Yes, I can understand how it would be seen that way. The Large Black Chimney actually represents death, which is all too prominently and ominously looming over us all. Thanks for the kind words, all! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scottwb2010 Posted January 3, 2016 Great detail in your entry Actor Builder. I love the horse drawn Hearse. Like the city not having enough medical facilities for the many minifigs esdin here, it needs a place to rest the dearly departed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mpyromaxos Posted January 3, 2016 Very nice idea and construction! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Actor Builder Posted January 5, 2016 Great detail in your entry Actor Builder. I love the horse drawn Hearse. Like the city not having enough medical facilities for the many minifigs esdin here, it needs a place to rest the dearly departed. Yes, the lack of hospitals is somewhat concerning. especially with Killer Super-Jumpers on the loose. Very nice idea and construction! Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
