Final Celebration Series set revealed
Posted by Huw,
The fourth and final of the celebration series of gifts with purchase has been revealed at LEGO.com.
40777 Celebration Series: Gingerbread Train Ornament will be a GWP at LEGO.com, probably next week once the current offer has ended. The spend threshold is likely to be AU$195 / US$120 / £110 / €120, the same as the others.

Looks tasty!
Oh, dang! I didn't know the winter gazebo GWP was live already - I was thinking about getting that. $150 is what I expected, but it's a bit steep for me right now.
Now I kinda like this train more, it's easily the best of this whole "Celebration series," and the threshold is (presumably) lower... I wish they'd overlap these GWPs for at least one day, but I don't expect that kind of thing to happen anymore, tbh.
Also, not seeing how this set is an "ornament" - unless they mean a table decoration, because it ain't gonna stay in the tree when there's no way to hang it....
This was a series?
disappointed it's an ornament
i want a larger version of it
Sweet
So even though apparently we will never have any further cause for celebration, this is still pretty good-looking. The various members of Clan Gingerbread will gladly, if not happily, drive this thing into the bleak distance as the Final Celebration heralds the death of all festivities.
Next up: Lego's Grim Lamentations! Bring the family!

Yeah, there’s no obvious through-line here in terms of actual set design. The models we have gotten are very nice, though.
The Final Celebration is at hand. Hold your gingerbread close, and your family closer.
(Also: if this is an ornament, where's the hanger at?)
I would have bought that; nice little set as a decoration
Tasty, and cute.

I bought the Red Bull F1 car 42206 yesterday, and received not only the Gazebo GWP 40778 , but also the Magic Maze 40596 and microscale Ninjago City Workshop 40706 .
Now is a good time to get GWPs....Lego is feeling generous!
Dear wallet I know you filed restraining order but can we have a talk?
Quite excellent. Hoping that pre-orders will still apply for the threshold and aren't just a one-off for the Winter Gazebo.
Here is my idea of a nice Christmas GWP (in no particular order): 40082, 40083, 40489, 40565, 40416, 40125, 40603, 3300014-1, 40809, 40701, 40484, 40564 . (see a trend?)
I like the current GWP available at Lego but, to me, it is still not desirable enough to pay at full retail from Lego (besides, most of the good stuff is either backorder or out of stock - not a surprise, It's like that every year).

You can display this ornament on a shelf.
We're leavin' together
But still it's farewell
And maybe we'll come back
To Earth, who can tell?
I guess there is no one to blame
We're leaving ground (leaving ground)
Will things ever be the same again?
It's the final celebration
The final celebration
Looks small for $120.
Might be 75 USD / 60 GBP
If so, seems worthwhile.
