If you didn’t see our post of the November 2016 LEGO Store Calendar, there are some pretty cool promotional gift with purchases during the month including the exclusive limited edition Snowglobe (40223). The Snowglobe was actually revealed way back in January and even the instuctions were available for a short time before being taken down.
The Snowglobe (40223) has the same aesthetics as a normal snowglobe with Santa and a Christmas tree being the centerpiece. The bottom area is actually a storage area that you can pull out using white plates with handle to put your keepsakes in.
The Snowglobe will only be available during Brick/Black Friday/Cyber Monday, November 25-28 with purchases of $99 or more, while supplies last. I have a feeling that it won’t last all four days at LEGO Stores and on Shop@Home so if you plan on making a purchase, do it early during the promotional timeframe. Also, this if for North America and I’m not sure when Europe will have their turn.

Is this the ONLY Limited set this year? Usually there are two. Are they counting the Advent calendar that is free with $99 purchase in Oct as the other “limited” set this year? Also, they usually have two small $10 sets for Christmas – I’ve only seen the elf set so far. Anyone know any more on these questions?
Might have to wait until the December calendar comes out before those questions are answered.
That would be a bit odd, only in that usually the first limited edition set comes out in Oct and then the second on Black Friday weekend, so that’s why I was thinking that maybe the Advent calendar that is free on Oct w/the $99 or more purchase maybe is in its place this year. Hope they’re not changing things up now or releasing fewer sets now.
But the Advent Calendar IS an exclusive set.
I like the idealized floating “snow”, as if Lego pieces could emulate tiny glitter suspended in water.
But seriously, this thing looks very pretty.
