Well it is still technically Christmas until January 6th, so I suppose this is a timely choice.
You're 6 days too late, Huwbot
Seriously Huwbot? Christmas isn't even close, it's an entire year away, it's not even this year!
love this one, part of our decorations
have in in a cadburys heroes tub from back in the day...
Just a little late
I don't think this tree stand is going to hold my Christmas tree, going to need a whole lot more bricks and minifigs to hold even a modest 5' tree.
Well, sorry, folks but Christmas for us is through January 6. I grew up in a family that celebrated it though that date. For me, this set is still timely. I don’t recall this one and I like it.
Is it sad that I thought it was cute and I don't remember getting this one only to find out I do own one?
poignant. poignset- no thats nothing.
Yes, Christmas was a few days ago. But the final Advent Countdown articles are still showing on the homepage, so maybe Huwbot just got confused?
I love these little sets. They're so cute, plus they make great extra-scenery-packs for your Winter Village.
I prefer the one I made in 2004:

What am I even looking at here? It looks like an art-installation portraying the housing crisis, featuring Super Maruigi and Fashion Hatecrime. Is this AI? Have you chosen today for the uprising, Huwbot?

Depending on your tradition, this is either the sixth or seventh day of Christmas (like the song). Certain traditions count Christmas as the first day of Christmas, while others start counting on the 26th. And I have a coworker who starts whistling one stanza of one Christmas song on the 7th. No, seriously, that was the first day I heard him do it in 2025.
Only three left? Looks like they made good sales this year!
Looks like the fence has broken and the 3 trees have escaped.
GWP 2013
It must have been seeing reviews for Aug 1st sets that got Huwbot confused about the season!

Time keeps on tickin'....
Matched perfectly with the GWP for the following month: 40083: Christmas Tree Truck. I still have both in my Xmas Village.

It coincided with the release of the Winter Village Market set, I think; essentially it was a free extra stall for that scene. Turns out the whole GWP controversy really has been around for a while.

And they both work with the Winter. Village theme, which is the best type of Holiday GWP.
Currently have this one set out as part of my Christmas village scene.
Happy New Year!!!
Wow, someone actually beat Hobby Lobby in prepping for the next Christmas season! Nice work Huwbot, lol. Good thing those trees are plastic.

We're talking about the same Huwbot that had to have the naked dolls taken away?

So was the late Eddie the otter. You know what? Maybe don't look that one up. Definitely don't look it up on YouTube.
