As we approach the end of our journey, I thought I’d take a look at one of this year’s Seasonal Gift’s With Purchase: the 40292: The Christmas Gift Box.

Cunningly disguised as a present wrapped in sand green and dark red ( special treats in themselves), when you remove the lid from this set, you reveal a Christmas living room vignette inside. With two minifigures and three hundred and one pieces, this model certainly looks to be inspired by Christmas.

The build is simple and satisfying, and I have to admit that I love the use of the pearl gold elements to complete the box on top of the present.

But it’s the little details that really make this set: the blinds, the presents under the tree, the toy train and armchair – they all add up to make this a very special living room at Christmas.

I love this set ( happy to give it four arbitrary praise units out of five), and it has gone straight to the mantle piece for display over the Christmas break.

A mixture of white plates, bricks and the like today, as well as different shades of purple….

And we put together a number of Christmas Presents. They have a small loop which you can use to hang them in your tree, or perhaps on a set of earrings. What will you do with them? Why not leave your comments below, and until tomorrow… Play Well!
