Description

Twenty-four small builds

Opening a door each December day reveals a small build, ranging from mini vehicles and street furniture to winter touches such as a snowman or a small skating rink. Rather than one large model, this calendar spreads a whole miniature world across four weeks, growing a little further with every door. Light bluish grey, black, white and red recur across many of the daily builds, tying the separate pieces together into one coherent scene by the time the last door opens.

Figures and small scenes

Six minifigures are spread across the calendar, gradually populating the growing city scene as pedestrians, shopkeepers or children playing in the snow. Combined with the small vehicles and structures from the other doors, they let familiar LEGO® City everyday scenes play out, just dressed for winter with snow, lights and decoration. That mix of figures and small builds gives the calendar more staying power than a simple treat box, even though it contains no sweets.

Parts and reuse

At 313 pieces across 169 unique parts, the calendar packs an unusually wide variety of components into a compact format spread over 24 small stages. Many of the plates, tiles and small elements suit larger LEGO® City street scenes or winter dioramas that stay on display beyond December. The full parts list on this page shows every element with its colour, handy for anyone hunting a specific piece once the final door has been opened.

A calendar built for collectors

Unlike a single large set, this calendar can't be finished in an afternoon, and that's rather the point: it turns building into a daily December ritual instead of a one-off project. Collectors tend to find it interesting because each year brings new mini builds and figure variants, so a run of several calendars gradually adds up to a growing collection of small LEGO® City winter scenes. Anyone who keeps the finished daily builds can fold them into larger city layouts once the holidays are over.
