Agree with many comments here, It does look a bit like a facade due to the depth. I know it's 8 wide, but that translates to 7 inside and tbh it's not easy to fit a whole lot of good detail in such a narrow building. The Chimney? Well thats almost a direct copy of the Santa visit one and I'd rather hope that Lego designers could be a bit more original. There are loads of other techniques for building a lovely chimney. I don't care for the ice rink(?) either, just seems like a waste of parts that could otherwise have gone into the building. The rest look lovely and I really like the outhouse.

Isn't a Lodge the same as a holiday home? Not a pub or hotel.. Like it from the image - just happy its not more of the narrow facade buildings from last year.. Look similar to Santa's Visit/ WV Cottage to me.. I'm OK with it.

Hi, I expect the first thing people will say is, just use PF, which i fully understand, but I was hoping a cheaper and more widely available, PU option existed. The Powered Up M Motor lookalike I can find is even rarer than the PF one? What is the story with lego not making a like for like M Motor (for more than a year) in the PU range? Makes no sense given the large number of earlier models that rely on the PF M Motor. Anyway back to my original question, has anyone been able to build Powered Up into an Emerald night and if so could they be kind enough to share the method and motor used? The only M Motor I can find is 88008 which appears to have a footprint too large, and an axle drive that is higher than the PF.. :( Many thanks

Speed Champions: Which has the best building experience?
stebai replied to HenryD's topic in LEGO Town
The 1970 Ferrari 512. I too just started on the SC range and have bought 9 or so models in the last half year - and the Ferrari 512 (or the Lambo Countach) are the best I've built, just so clever.. -
Hmm - Why would you want to?

Also don't forget the GWP large spinning tree from a couple of years ago.

Thanks - I would upload others but i can't seem to find an easy way to upload pics here larger than 0.1mb. If you check out the fb winter village homepage you'll find more info/pics. Plans are also on ebay, as always, with bigger pics & renders. Just search Lego Reindeer Barn, Lego Sleigh Ride & Lego Santa Observatory. Keep safe Lou and see you at a Brickvention - with all of my creations - sometime soon (I hope).. Oh there is a small vid with footage of two of them moving:

Hi all, Been a while since i posted any new builds, but I have been busy. Here are three new models that I have slaved over during lockdowns. I hope you like them. My WV Reindeer Barn, WV Santa Observatory & WV Sleigh Ride. Both the Santa Observatory and the Sleigh Ride are "moving" models! You may have to right click the image to view the full picture (I am sorry although I'm Ok with Lego, I'm not so good with technology :) ) Thanks all and keep safe

Excellent job - Loved the tutorial build too.. Shame about the team!!

Not as difficult to "de-sugar" is i feared it might be. In fact I see quite a good building here that will sit nicely alongside the WV Cottage. The Gingerbread figs tho will have to stay in the box..

All this really tells us is - well - nothing - It's still just speculation and contains no info that has not been aired before in this forum. Fingers crossed for something else - but i'm sure. with a bit of thought it can turned into a candy store or some-such.

Just wanted to let u know that the model instructions do appear to be available on ebay, Dan. The seller does have some other instructions that appear to be copies of Lego instructions, maybe has used your video to engineer some slightly different instructions? If they are yours my apologies and great work - the model captures the building beautifully.

Light brick on roof... see the small box and arrow in top right of pic. Set looks OK, building looks very shallow, but will buy :)

A blatant copy/cash-in would annoy most of the long time WV community. I honestly thought that Lego had listened to the backlash after the Toy Shop. Maybe not.. I too would skip it this year unless different colours are used. I mean seriously how difficult would it be to substitute the blue for a sand green or something akin. Lazy & disrespectful if its visually the same.
