lightningtiger Posted December 7, 2012 Neat little fire truck and remote control......I now wait for tomorrow.....Brick On in Advent 'WideWiiLover' ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ferrik Posted December 9, 2012 The firetruck is a simple toy to have but looks great. It even has a little ladder. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WideWiiLover Posted December 9, 2012 Day 8: Apologies for the late posting....:( College work sucks..... Today we were given a "second" utility wall, but this time with a little roof, ski poles and skis.... On a side note: This is the only day so far that the bag (shown behind) has been of the old kind i.e. perforated. I liked it when my Lego was sealed fresh......I wonder what provoked this... UPDATE: Apparently Brickshelf decided that my photo is upside down....If you click through it will be the right way up....I really don't know why it did that!

WideWiiLover Posted December 9, 2012 Day 9: Today we have a mechanic mini fig! Included are an extra wrench and new style black cap. FYI: Brickshelf seems to have problems when i upload photos now.....it flips them in the thumbnail, but when you click through to the actual link, it is the right way up....Anyone else having or had this problem before?

lightningtiger Posted December 9, 2012 Well, that's handy.....if he loses a hat or fancy screwdriver/spanner thingy he's got a spare ! I now wait again for tomorrow's reveal......Brick On in Advent 'WideWiiLover' ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ferrik Posted December 10, 2012 Well getting a second wall is kind of a shame as it would be great if there were no repeats, but oh well, at least it's a bit different. On a side note, the mechanic looks great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tomdobs55 Posted December 10, 2012 I love the mechanic, so simple and elegant. I gotta admit I'm having a really good time with this calendar, unfortunately (or fortunately depending on who you ask) my son got to it and opened all the doors yesterday so we just built it all at once. There's some pretty cool stuff in there bit I won't spoil it ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WideWiiLover Posted December 10, 2012 Day 10: Toady was another disappointment....ugh..... Yup, we got a red (couldn't the do one in another colour? I have 10 of these already...) dolly and 4 wheels with white rims.... I really don't get what this is for, if the theme is fire this year....... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightningtiger Posted December 10, 2012 Handy for some, overload for others......I always find a use for a spare stack of tyres and sack trolley..but yeah it's a little lame. Must go with yesterday's mechanic....oh, well on to tomorrow....Brick On in Advent 'WideWiiLover' ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ferrik Posted December 11, 2012 Yeah, I guess having a few extra wheels is handy at times but then again, it is a bit of a disappointment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tomdobs55 Posted December 11, 2012 I agree with this one especially when these "slick" tires are on PAB at my local stores, but the dolly is nice can't have too many but it would be nice to see it in another color Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WideWiiLover Posted December 11, 2012 Day 11: (WOO DOUBLE DIGITS)....I'm probably the only one that gets excited by that..... Today we get (what i initially thought was) a sort of ski thing? Interesting...huh.... Then i realized that maybe the slick tires from yesterday weren't pointless after all, and when combine with the mechanic.... It's snow cat! or whatever they are called. 4x4 thing. Opinions? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightningtiger Posted December 11, 2012 So that makes sense doesn't it......an ATV with slicks on snow ! I now wait for tomorrow.....Brick On in Advent 'WideWiiLover' ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ferrik Posted December 12, 2012 Oh, so that's what the wheels were for... Now we all get it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blondie-Wan Posted December 12, 2012 I got my first calendar this year. Love it. But I wonder, is this a boy or a girl? When comparing today's kid with the ones from set 10229, it has the torso of the boy and the head of the girl. I'm puzzled... You mean the Day 6 minifigure? I don't see why it can't be either one. I'd say it's whichever sex you want it to be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WideWiiLover Posted December 12, 2012 Day 12: We are Halfway there! It's another mini fig!!!! I named here Cheryl....I love the hair! You get 2 Walkie Talkies too....great for bus mirrors in my opinion... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightningtiger Posted December 12, 2012 You know I never thought of using those as mirrors on heavy vehicles before......I wonder what it would look like......ah, that's what LDD is for ! Cool a female fire fighter.......working overtime to afford implants if you know what I mean .......seriously if Lego gave us a female torso for the police chief in the forest police station then a female fire fighting torso would be a help......one day they'll learn !

WideWiiLover Posted December 13, 2012 Day 13: Today we got a nice little office desk, with obligatory coffee mug Different style of computer then i'm used too...good for my future airport MOC.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightningtiger Posted December 13, 2012 Ah, a replacement desk for the 2011 police station eh ? Keep the reveals coming 'WideWiiLover' and Brick On in Advent ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tomdobs55 Posted December 13, 2012 The amount of coffee mugs in this calendar is absolute insanity Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WideWiiLover Posted December 15, 2012 Day 14: Apologies for the late upload.....Had to take my MacBook Pro to the Bar of Geniuses.....apparently it needs a new battery! It is over 3 years old though so....:/ Back to LEGO!!! Today we got a brown crate, and some "portable" fire. The image on the door shows them inside, but they don't fit in well. I guess these might be for a minfig Hobo? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rick Posted December 15, 2012 Today we got a brown crate, and some "portable" fire. I was surprised to see a connection that TLG, if I remember correctly, officially considers "illegal" being used. Because of the material that transparent pieces are made of, the flames and the cones are very hard to separate again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightningtiger Posted December 15, 2012 A brown box with flames......okay, it's cold where it is I guess.....roll on the next reveal.....Brick On in Advent 'WideWii'Lover' ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WideWiiLover Posted December 15, 2012 Day 15: Today we were graced with our third storage wall. On an alternative note, you can connect all three walls together using the ski wall and connecting using the slopes. Just a little FYI! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightningtiger Posted December 15, 2012 Ah, yes connect them together.....anyway a better one than yesterday.....always handy to extra breathing apperatus around.......beans from the night before !
