Recommendation: meh 8.3 / 10 by WhiteFang

I prefer this year's City Advent Calendar series compared to previous years, mainly because it provides some new additions of minifigures such as the child and 2 generic city minifigures. There are some nice printed parts that are used in this set, plus some great assortment for town enhancement such as the fountain, lamp post, traffic light and bench. More importantly, this is the first City Advent Calendar series that comes with a small vehicle.

I purchased this for my son and he went crazy over it when I gave it to him on Dec 1st. He had a blast each morning opening that little door and discovering what mini lego kit there was to build. He had no trouble following directions...however he is a big fan of Lego and is always building building building. Each day he would set up the new creation on the fold-out cardboard base, and each day he was delighted to see how his mini city was building up. Even now...February...he still has it all laid out. Initially I thought it was on the expensive side, but it works out to about $1 per day...and that is worth it to see the excitement in him each morning. A great Lego product that Lego should NEVER stop making.
