Seasonal

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.

Merry Christmas 2016, everybody! http://brickset.com/sets/40223-1/Christmas-Ornament

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

40235 - Year Of The Dog (promo)

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

Picture comes from the 40236 Romantic Valentine Picnic instructions.

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"

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

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

40271 - Bunny (Easter 2018)

Promobricks.de has their review online: https://www.promobricks.de/lego-40291-creative-storybook-hans-christian-andersen-im-review/61256 The booklet includes suggestions for additional fairy tales displays, though those pieces nor instructions are not included: I think this is a brilliant absolutely MUST HAVE promo and I am guessing it will 'sell out' very quickly!

The Brick Show released pictures of this year's free Xmas gift

the return of the gingerbread house...

First look at what I’m guessing is the promo. Sent from my iPhone using Brickpicker Forum

Real?

I was scrolling through ebay and happened to look up the upcoming charles dickens promo, I did find a seller who happened to have 10 of them. Anyway I had a look through some of the items this person was selling and came across this Lego 40416 Ice Skating promo which I haven't seen before. Correct me if I'm wrong but is this a new promo that hasn't been announced yet? Could it be free with purchases alongside the Charles Dickens Promo. Here's a link to the item. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/LEGO-40416-Ice-Skating-Rink-2020-Christmas-Brand-New-Sealed/114499606264?hash=item1aa8b556f8:g:~q0AAOSwiEFfov2b

These sets are only available in the US at the moment, does anyone know if it will come to Europe?

From r/lego:

WTF, is that really supposed to be a bunny?

Anybody got info on these sets? They done? Never come in stock anymore and showing "Out of Stock".
