In an unexpected surprise, the LEGO Star Wars UCS Millennium Falcon (75192) is now available again on Shop@Home in Europe and Australia for VIPs. As of this writing, it is still available for purchase but you have to be signed in to your account. This is probably the last chance to get it this year and also score the exclusive black VIP card. There’s still no word on when the US will have it available again.
Can you believe we’re already on double digits on the LEGO Seasonal Christmas Build Up (40253)? For today build, it can be interpreted in two different ways. The obvious one is that it is a little stand that sells snacks like hot chocolate and pastries.
The other thing that the build can represent is a small fireplace with treats for Santa when he comes down the chimmney. Either way, it’s a cute little build.

For today, we get a really good looking steam tractor. We can see that with the ice cream piece that’s on top of it. On the back of it, there’s also a rake on the back that uses some teeth pieces. I really do this this build and hopefully we’ll have more of them for the rest of the set.
Onwards to Day 8 of the LEGO Seasonal Christmas Build Up (40253) and today we have something that fits the winter theme pretty well.

The only strange thing is that the igloo is on blue plates so it may seem that it is floating on water.
