City Advent Calendar 2016

Description

One door, one small build

Instead of a single finished model, this calendar hands builders 24 separate mini-builds spread across December, ranging from small vehicles and snow-clearing equipment to festive props and winter accessories. Each door typically takes only a few minutes to assemble, which suits the daily countdown format far better than a long single session would. Seven minifigures appear across the 24 days, more than most sets this size include, so a small cast of City residents builds up alongside the scenery day by day.

141 unique parts across small builds

With 141 unique parts spread over just 290 pieces, very few doors repeat the same elements, so the daily reveal keeps offering something visually new rather than more of the same basic bricks. That variety is what makes the set worth keeping after December ends, since the small vehicles, sledges and accessories slot easily into an existing City collection instead of sitting unused once the calendar is finished and the last door is opened.

A white, red and rust colour scheme

White stands in for snow and ice throughout, paired with red for festive details, vehicles and clothing, while black and reddish brown cover structural parts, tyres and timber-style elements. Together they give even the smallest builds a recognisably wintery City look. The full parts list on this page covers all 141 unique elements, useful for tracking down small winter pieces or figure accessories for other builds already sitting in a collection at home.

Who this calendar suits

This set works well for children and collectors who enjoy short daily building sessions over December rather than one long project, and the seven minifigures plus varied small vehicles make it a useful top-up for an existing City collection once the countdown ends. Anyone planning their own winter City scene will find plenty of reusable snow and holiday-themed pieces here, from sledges to small seasonal props and figure accessories for a bigger winter display.
