LEGO Seasonal Christmas Build Up (40253) – Day 24

LEGO Seasonal Christmas Build Up (40253)

For the final day of the LEGO Seasonal Christmas Build Up (40253), we have someone that is synonymous with the holiday but does it live up to expectations. The build is the jolly man himself but he looks very weird. I do like that the build uses a white croissant piece for the moustache but that’s about it. The face is able to swivel and he seems to be slumping over just a bit. It’s unfortunate that the last build for the set is somewhat of a letdown especially from yesterday’s build. It probably would’ve been better if they were switched.

I’ll have a wrap-up post about the LEGO Seasonal Christmas Build Up tomorrow to fully close out this set.

LEGO Seasonal Christmas Build Up (40253) – Day 23

LEGO Seasonal Christmas Build Up (40253)

In the second to last day of the LEGO Seasonal Christmas Build Up (40253), today’s model is probably the best one out of the set. For Day 23, we have a great looking Christmas tree. It’s a simple build that uses mostly slope pieces for the shape of the tree and it’s decorated with ornaments which are just a variety of translucent studs. The star also uses some trans-yellow studs as well. As I said earlier, this Christmas tree is the best build out of the set so far and it probably the best Christmas tree LEGO has released in general.

LEGO Seasonal Christmas Build Up (40253)

The LEGO Seasonal Christmas Build Up (40253) is slowly coming to an end and for today’s build, we have something that most people want to receive during the holidays. For the Day 22 build, we have a couple of colorfully wrapped presents. It may seem that the presents are separated but they are actually connected by a 2×4 plate.

LEGO Seasonal Christmas Build Up (40253) – Day 21

LEGO Seasonal Christmas Build Up (40253)

We’re down to the last five days of the LEGO Seasonal Christmas Build Up (40253) and if you’re someone who lives at a place that snows a lot, you may be familiar with this vehicle. For Day 21, we have a red and black snowplow that doesn’t look too bad. It uses some black cheese slopes for the plow and there’s even a bed on the back. There are some 1×2 plate withe bars that could be sed for treads.

LEGO Seasonal Christmas Build Up (40253) – Day 20

LEGO Seasonal Christmas Build Up (40253)

After yesterday’s terrible looking model for the LEGO Seasonal Christmas Build Up (40253), today we have something more fitting for the holiday and refreshing and the same time. For Day 20, we have a cup of hot chocolate which uses a SNOT technique for the red cup and a red handle piece for the handle. The use of the white cupcake piece finishes off the build representing steam coming out of the cup.

LEGO Seasonal Christmas Build Up (40253) – Day 19

LEGO Seasonal Christmas Build Up (40253)

We had a server upgrade yesterday so I didn’t have a chance to post this but the build for the LEGO Seasonal Christmas Build Up (40253) was a bit of a doozy as it doesn’t seem to fit the holiday theme at all. For Day 19, we had a bat. I would’ve thought it was a penguin while building from the bottom up but as I got to the head, I saw the two fangs and got a bit confused until the end. It’s possible that LEGO is referencing the bats from The Nightmare Before Christmas but that seems like a stretch.

LEGO Seasonal Christmas Build Up (40253) – Day 18

LEGO Seasonal Christmas Build Up (40253)

As we wind down on the last few days of the LEGO Seasonal Christmas Build Up (40253), today we have another cute animal build. For the build for Day 18, we have a mystery animal that I think is a grizzly bear but it could be interpreted as another animal. It uses the SNOT technique that we’ve seen before in this set with the Ladybug (Day 6) and the Snowman (Day 13). i do like the use of the brown cupcake piece for the tail.
