Minecraft Advent Calendar - Day 11
Posted by TheBrickPal,
We're almost halfway through the calendar, crazily enough! There have been some great gifts so far, but also some just okay ones. I wonder which category the next one will end up in...
Fortunately, this is another great one! This microscale villager house is quite nice. I like the snow on top, and the pumpkin adds a dash of color.
We've had similar houses at this scale before in 21105 Micro World - The Village and 21265 The Crafting Table, which were better, but this is still a good approximation of one. Now the Iron Golem has something to protect!
Overall - 4.0 - Another Micro World environment, and I can't complain.

For me the images showed on the main page. Might be a spoiler risk if others have that too.
As for the build... it's fine. I'm not a fan of mixed scales though. But why is there lava right next to the house?
So… even though it has been a good few years since I played Minecraft, I do know this: that is not lava. It’s not even possible to be lava seeing as though it is placed up against a wood block. Those most certainly are depicting pumpkins commonly found in these biomes. Great little micro build too.

Geothermal heating. Apparently Minecraft takes place in Iceland.

Thanks - I don't know how I didn't think of that!
And people say the SWAC for this year is lame
21265 has several beautiful villager houses at micro scale. To me this looks like a missed opportunity.
Nevertheless: so far, the 2025 MC advent calendar really stands out compared to the other advent calendars with regard to the number of parts and the weight of the ABS you get.
I look forward to the next 13 days!
What a weirdly elongated crucifix. Certainly an odd interpretation of being seasonal
Man, Uncle Ben's tombstone has seen better days.
This was a house? I thought it was a bench.

I didn't know what it was when I built it, and I mistook the pumpkin for lava, too.
I think this one is the weakest build so far. The crafting table was at least iconic. This requires a bit of mental gymnastics.

Oh, all of the ACs have been a let down this year.
And, I'll die on that cross, or the pathetic brown one revealed today.
...still better than day two, so that's something.
