City Advent Calendar - Day 16
Posted by CapnRex101,
I am expecting a fourth and perhaps last space-related item today, based on the pattern of this City Advent Calendar so far and the past several days.
Hopefully the space theme concludes well...
Robots are found in several City Space sets and this one seems at home in the group, featuring the same rounded shape and single eye. Like the spacecraft from a couple of days ago, its colour scheme is familiar and I like the articulated arms. However, unlike the previous robots, I think this one is a toy because of the clockwork key on its back.
Overall - This is another nice model and I appreciate the consistent theming over a few days.

An, a clockwork probulator. How Futurama.
Beep boop,
This one’s cute!
Hey, it's the Intelligence Core!
You'd think that after a while the word 'rhubarb' would stop being funny, but you'd be wrong. You monster.

Cyborg snail with robot arms on the side and a cyclops eye? I like it!
Also, more space stuff is always appreciated

Really cute little build.

I like the use of the https://brickset.com/parts/6398391/plate-1x1-w-2-shafts-dia-3-2 as treads.
This guy reminds me of the Holocron Droid from The Yoda Chronicles:

I could get behind a Space-themed calendar… (as well as a Castle and Pirates).
Hey TLG - just call it an “Icons” Calendar - it would sell like hotcakes!
cool build, but I think its kind of weird and I was hoping for more pieces

AFOLs would buy a bunch, certainly, but how well would it do with the general public? That's the real question. Although I do wonder how well a more expensive Advent calendar with polybags for each day would do, whether they were a series of homages to past Lego lines or not.
