Seasonal

We are starting to hear about the upcoming annual Halloween set. It sure looks better than last year's Vampire setswhich can still be found in some Lego stores at 50% off. LegoLeroy from eurobricks posted a pic of a recent Halloween set which was taken from the backs of the Seasonal 2017 Easter Egg Hunt's (40237) instruction. Set name and # will be announced soon. Allen from thebrickfan wrote up a nice little summary, "From the looks of it, the set shows off a large gate and in the background, there’s presumably a haunted house with an orange sky backdrop. There’s also a cauldron with some food stuff in it. The minifigures include a man and a skeleton"

Sounds like the next Winter Village set is going to be a Market. No other information as yet, but the source is never wrong.

First look at what is probably a holiday set that will be sold but possibly a GWP.

This is now available at Shop@Home. https://shop.lego.com/en-US/Christmas-Train-Ride-40262 Tis the season! Choo-choo!

I bought 5 or 6 of the Holiday Bauble 853345 (gold bricks) on clearance a few months back... can't recall what I paid... $2 or $3 each? Have had them on Amazon FBM ever since at the lowest price ($11.90 shipped) and have not sold a single one (despite this being the cheapest Lego ornament I found in a quick search). I was just thinking about opening them up and parting out the bricks. Interesting... the tag says "43 pcs"... I now learned that means 40 bricks + 2 ornament halves + 1 gold ribbon. Doing a little more research, I see that a few are selling on eBay around $10 each... maybe I'll just do that. One other idea... part out the bricks, and sell the empty bauble…

In the back of the instructions for the Valentine's Day Dinner set, there was this picture showing the next possible small seasonal set of a diorama. No official name just yet same as the other for a few days but it appears to be another couple this time decorating the eggs for Easter. Just noticed this will have some dark red masonry bricks which is fantastic in my opinion.

Picture comes from the 40236 Romantic Valentine Picnic instructions.

For sale in a Lego shop in Koln, Germany: RRP 9.99 euro.

Here is the next "Year of" set with a Brickset review already done.

Found this on Brickset: Looks to be a GWP in December.

Pretty cool of Lego to do this. Wonder how many will be made/value will be on secondary market. This special set celebrates the six decades of classic LEGO trains since the first one rolled down the tracks in 1966.

sorry if already posted.

New hi-res pic of the offer from the October 2016 LEGO Store Calendar: I had speculated previously that it might be one of the regular advent calendars, but clearly, this is not. Set number 40222. It's a different set than any of the advents. As the image says, it will be free with purchases of $99 or more from October 1-25, 2016.

We don't have a Seasonal 2016 so... These are listed as seasonal. I can guess the 1st 2 but what holiday is the monkey...? 40201, 40202 & 40207

Saw the new Holiday Train coming out in October. Definitely want that one for my collection. Included with any $99 purchase from 10/13 - 11/13.

I'm not sure what the number is yet, but here is the rumored Halloween Set for 2016. http://www.lcc.builders/2016/02/26/nieuwe-halloween-set-2016-eerste-beelden/
