Great end to the series, lots of fun minifigures and presenting them as an advent calendar was a really good idea!

W-what? What do you mean Santa at the mall ISN'T REAL???

:wink:

Awesome series @Robert8! (But you probably knew I'd think so.) I've wondered for years whether it would be possible to do a regular CMF series with a winter holiday theme (like Series 14 was Halloween-themed), and it's clear from this that the answer is a big overstuffed YES. That said, here are some characters I would love to see in a hypothetical future series:

St. Lucia--a character celebrated mostly in Sweden, depicted as a girl in a white robe with a red sash, wearing a crown of lit candles

"Santa's Helper"--to go with the Mall Santa, a person in a chintzy elf costume

Baby New Year

Sugar Plum Fairy

Ugly Sweater Guy

Nutcracker

What better way to end this Advent Calendar than with the real reason for Christmas... COMMERCIALIZATION!!! :head_back: :sarcasm_smug:

In all seriousness though, I love the upset baby you've paired with this one, and giving him the Expectant Mother's torso is a really clever touch! :thumbup: :grin:

I love this Advent Calender Robert8! Thank you for continuing to share your minifigure drawings. Every morning I looked forward to seeing them, and I think it actually helped make me more excited for the holidays. My favorites were Krampus (duh) but also the Confectioner, Santa Girl, Tin Soldier, and Caroling Girl.

Mall Santa with the crying baby is pure perfection. I have played Santa at the learning center where my significant other works, and I can tell you that many times those babies sure don't know what to make of the guy in the red suit. Although my beard is much better than this guy's LOL. I would love to have this figure.

Another epic series, Robert. Thank you for all you do to breathe creative and fresh life into our interest in minifigures.

Nope, they're from LEGO Brand Stores' Build-A-Minifigure stations... :wink: ...follow this post for further discussion (click the arrow in the upper right-hand corner of the quote box)...

There‘s a pic on IG showing even more new parts: the Flitwick hair in nougat, a purple laptop (which might not be new actually), and a white santa hat :thumbup: Glad to see this trend continue, even though it‘s a pain in the butt to acquire these when does live in a country that doesn‘t have LEGO stores :snicker:

It hasn’t been as long this time because the whole series reveal was on the 24th rather than the first. 
 

looking forward as always!
