The other DLCs that are included in the Season Pass are the Arrow Pack, the Bizarro World Pack, and The Squad Pack. There will also be a free Heroines & Villainesses Pack that will also be available in the future.
BrickLink has launched another platform for users to submit and share their MOCs that aren’t commercialized, CUUSOO BRICK. From what I’m reading, it is similar to what LEGO Ideas is about except for some little differences.
Users submit their MOCs and other users vote on it and if it gets 100 votes, a CUUSOO BRICK Award is given and it goes under review. Then CUUSOO BRICK will contact the original creator and asks if they would like the project to be distributed or provide building instructions. If the original creator approves, the project can be purchased on the BrickLink MOC Shop with building instructions and parts. Both the original creator and the user who recommended the MOC will get royalties based on the sales of the project. Read the official press release below:

The collaboration to launch will lower the threshold for MOC production in efforts to increase user-generated LEGO creations available for consumers. Users will be able to discover new MOC projects on CUUSOO collected from anywhere on the Internet
We are now down to the single digits in the LEGO Star Wars 2014 Advent Calendar (75056). Will we still see the same trend that’s been happening throughout the calendar of a famous vehicle followed by their respective pilots?
We’re getting to the nitty gritty now on the LEGO Star Wars 2014 Advent Calendar (75056). Let’s see what we get today.
For Day 15, we’ve moved on from the Tatooine themed builds to Hoth with a Snowspeeder. This mini model has the distinct look with the shape, color, and laser cannons but there could also be some improvements on it. If you look at it from the back, you’ll definitely know what it is. However, the cockpit area looks a little off to me. Overall, the Snowspeeder is a good attempt as a mini model but could be improved on. I like it and hopefully we see more Hoth themed builds in the next few days as the trend seems to show.
