Disney Advent Calendar - Day 14

Posted by ,

I'm enjoying the exercise in this calendar of finding what scene in the movie is represented by each build. What I am puzzled about, though, is why LEGO did not include in the set description (or anywhere else, for that matter) that these builds are based on Olaf's Frozen Adventure. If you're not familiar with the film, some of these builds might be a little confusing!

Let's see what the next reference is....

This one is pretty straightforward (at least part of it is) - it's the Yule Bell! Anna and Elsa ring the Yule bell to start the holiday season in Arendelle. I'm not sure why a letter is included (I don't remember one in the scenes with the bell), but I'm never going to complain about an extra piece.

Again, the LEGO set description refers to this build as a "micro bell", which I think is clearly a Yule Bell. I'm wondering if this is a result of a breakdown in communication between the designers and the marketing team.

Yule or micro, I feel like, any advent calendar day that requires some actual building is an automatic win. Maybe Schrodinger's cat and Churro depressed me too much.

Just watched it, and I think the letter's supposed to be the list of Christmas traditions that Olaf compiles.

For whom does the bell toll....?

It's a pretty cute bell. The letter is a bit random though

Certainly not for the fruitcake. That thing was indestructible.

I’m gonna guess Kristoff, as the only character who hasn’t shown up yet

Depending on the actions we do or don't take, it might well be Churro. Much like the Grinch, I fear Churro might have a heart that's three sizes too large.

Time to ring the bell.

Yes, it will be done with the fruitcake. Always an excellent weapon of choice.

Deep-fried sugar is no one's friend. :(

You don't deep-fry the sugar. You sprinkle it on after it's done.

I love churros, but there's not one single ingredient that is good for you. White flour metabolizes very similarly to sugar.

Also, there's usually sugar in the dough, and the Spanish don't sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar, they dip in chocolate.
