Nice Christmas item
Fun to build.
fun build
This is a really nice set and was easy to build. The only feature I found strange was that my Mrs. Claus had an angry face. However, I took the head off later to add the cape and discovered it had two faces on the same head (a happy face on one side and the angry on the other).
Very fast delivery
This item was delivered very quickly, we are very satisfied with the product and service!!! 5 stars.
Merry Christmas
LEGO is always fun and suitable for all ages.
Nice Christmas addition for your LEGO city.
Super fun workshop from Santa's workshop with sleigh, reindeer, and much more.
Excellent for Christmas.
Very fun to put next to the Christmas tree.
The children were very happy.
I chose this as a Christmas gift for my child. The children were very happy.
Love it!
Building it definitely makes me feel Christmas. It was very fun and cute. The detail is amazing. I put the sleigh on the roof, so it looks like flying!
Magical Christmas Build
I really enjoyed this set. I spent some time building alone and some time building with my 7 year old nephew who LOVED the magical elements such as the small reindeer and the sleigh. I found this build easier than an expert build, but for children this set would be difficult (although with a bit of help my 7 year old nephew was fine). I think the Mrs Claus cookie tray and string of lights were nice touches. Thought this would be better value than the Winter Toy Shop set. Overall was lovely to build and get into the Christmas spirit.
Successful gift
Very nice LEGO box. With many special details. Guaranteed hours of play and also very fun for adults to build. This set is put together around Christmas every year. Extra fun next to the Christmas tree.
It didn't disappoint me.
The service was good. The set met expectations. My son was missing Rudolf, which was quickly resolved by replacing the nose of a kingdom with a red ball.
Santa's Workshop
Very fun and definitely perfect for the holidays. We had never seen this before. We had a lot of fun putting it together. Even the rest of the family enjoyed it. I would definitely recommend it.
Great Christmas Scene
I enjoyed putting this entire set together, and like it much better than the old Christmas Village pieces we had. Fun to make and easy to store for next year, don't have to worry about breaking anything, since it can be fixed easily. Very clever pieces in this set. Love it!
A perfect Christmas gift
Leaves you wanting more reindeer. A perfect Christmas gift. My 9-year-old absolutely loved it.
Santa's Workshop
I wanted to start a tradition of building a Lego winter village scene and I selected Santa's Workshop as part of the build. Since this was one of my first expert level builds, I did find the build challenging but still a fun experience overall.
The set itself...
Pros:
- The detail level is beautiful. The look of the building itself is what I would imagine Santa's workshop to be. Quaint with a little bit of whimsy with the candy cane posts. From the chimney to the step stone front porch, the look is awesome.
- The minifigs are great. Santa is an obvious get but the addition of Mrs. Claus is good and the helper elves is just pretty much necessary if you want to label this as a workshop.
- The sleigh design and reindeer is nice where you can have a setting of getting ready to ship off for the Christmas deliveries.
Con:
- The building itself is a little smaller than what I would prefer. Not so much that it needs to be taller but perhaps wider. There seems to be more space dedicated to Santa's office or living area than the actual workshop itself. Maybe it would have been nice to have an area like a stable for the reindeer.
- The workshop build for the elves is good and nice to look at, but could be better. Would be nice if the conveyor would have a moving element or something. Also, since the floor space of the workshop is small, having the conveyor build on the outside seems awkward.
- The connection between the two main parts of the building seem a little tough to keep together. There are clip elements on the sides but they just do not hold too well. I found this to be a bit of a struggle when moving the build around.
Overall, I really like this set and for the cost I think it puts it at a great value. My village is small because I only have a few sets but I think this is a great addition.
Love the Workshop
I bought two of these so I could have extra parts, more elves and all eight reindeer. I modified it some so it would be the biggest build in my Santa Christmas Village. I still plan to modify it a little more next season.
Absolutely adorable!
We bought this as a Christmas gift for the whole family to enjoy, and boy, did we ever! It was challenging, but still a lot of fun to assemble. The detail is astounding, from the baby reindeer (we used the extra red ball to make him Rudolph) to the string of Christmas lights - Santa's chair even swivels and reclines - how cool is that?! My husband, six-year old son, and I all had a great time putting this together, and we're all looking forward to next year. I would highly recommend this set.
Really well done
My wife and I love how organised all of the Lego sets are. We have bought a few sets this year & put them together so it's like a little Christmas Village. This is the only set we have received where a few of the pieces were not in a bag, specifically the rails for the reindeer's. It wasn't hard for us to work out what they were for.
There was delayed shipping because there was none ready to ship but it did ship a few days earlier than expected which was great.
Sometimes it's hard to tell what colors some of the pieces are or if they're meant to be transparent or not, but when you look at what you've got and what you've got to build it's not hard to work out. We love the little extra pieces, we made a few extra flowers, presents & gave another figurine a beard etc.
Because we want to have these as a display & not just to play with and pack up we bought the grey boards to set them on. Some of the pieces that are not completely square do not line up 100% (like the toy maker machine) but in most cases we can lock down one part & that works fine.
New LEGO Winter collection
Just received the new LEGO Winter Village set. Elves building toys, reindeer, Santa Claus with his magical sleigh, Mrs. Claus with cookies, and the clock tower! The set includes 6 minifigures: Santa Claus with the red gift bag, "Mrs. Claus" with the cookie tray, and 4 elves with pointed ears and hats, for a total of 883 pieces. A must-have for anyone who wants to add a festive touch to their home with a LEGO Creator!
Makes Christmas Fun
I bought this set for myself because my son was losing interest in LEGO building. I found that I rather enjoy building expert level items when I built the Death Star in 3 days. I love love Christmas themed LEGO sets. I have other Christmas sets that I add to when I set up my display for Christmas.
