Description

A wrapped gift made of bricks

The model shows a wrapped present, which fits the festive season well. It belongs to the Monthly Mini Model Build series, in which a different small model was offered each month. With 55 pieces it comes together quickly, so you do not need a long afternoon for it. That makes it a nice little project to share with children, or a decoration to put next to the tree or on the table in December.

Festive colours

Dark green, white and dark red form the base, with pearl gold used for the ribbon and accents. It is a classic Christmas mix that reads as a gift at once, without any fuss. One notable detail is that the 55 pieces come in only 9 different types. Many bricks therefore appear several times, which gives the model a calm, clear look with no extra detail or specialist elements. Together with the pearl gold it creates a warm contrast that also looks good under fairy lights.

Display it or give it away

Because the present is itself built from bricks, you can give it away or add it to a winter scene, perhaps beside a house or sleigh you have built yourself. Collectors like the series because it covers a whole year of small subjects. If you buy a second-hand copy, the parts list on this page lets you check the contents quickly, both before you pay and after you unpack it. It also makes a nice extra tucked in with a real gift, since it can stay on the shelf after unwrapping.

Reusing the pieces

Dark green and dark red are popular colours for buildings, vehicles and landscapes. The list shows every part type with its colour and quantity. With the “What can I build?” tool you can see which other models these 55 pieces and the rest of your collection could make, without buying anything extra. That way the gift is not only a decoration but, once the holidays are over, a handy source of parts.
