Christmas Build-Up: Day 6
Posted by TheBrickPal,
You may want to build today's model right near your fireplace with stockings hung high. Why, you ask? Because that is what Day 6's model consists of... and it is fantastic! The Christmas Build-Up continues its winning streak, with a small flame inside, plants and decorations on top, and a single red and white stocking above.
Overall - 4.5 - This is one of the best models so far, with some useful parts and clearness in what it is trying to convey.

Best so far
I think im getting more disappointed with this set as the days go by. IF you can keep them all, or at least the last say 6 /12 without breaking this is a great set but breaking them up each day means surely each day should be bigger....... This is the best so far but its either 24 at once or 24 different models with MOST of the pieces .... like creators..... maybe start slow for beginners.... or even better have three levels each day....... then you can re-make next year a different set etc,.
@Lego34s - that's not a bad idea, bigger models and multiple difficulty levels.
As to building all the models at once - extra pieces needed for today's model:
1x Dark Stone Grey, plate 1x2 with 1 stud; 1x Brick-Yellow brick w. bow 1x4; 2x Medium Stone Grey, plate 1x2 with 1 stud; 1x MSG Plate 2x2; 1x Black brick 1x1 w. 1 knob; and 1x MSG roof tile 1x2x2/3.
This has been so far the best day and that is from a good run with no duds yet (even including puppy/monkey!). It is clear it's a 24 in 1 so in the same way as the Creator kits you don't get to build all of them at once but it is odd having so many bits left over every day. It's like having a Creator style kit with advent calendar size builds. Still I look forward to see what we get over the coming days.
I ended up with 3 of these 24 in 1 sets and have installed 2 of these fireplaces in my modulars. One of the better builds from this set IMO.
The best model so far in my opinion! Thanks again CoffeeBrickMan for the help in building every model of the Set! Regards!
Definitely better than the others. You can actually tell what this one is.
Had to steal the brick holding one of the monkey's ears on to get this built, even with two sets on the go. Nice little Christmas build so will probably be one of the handful that I try not to take apart.
This reminds me of the fireplace from Bilbo's Hobbit Hole (Bag End)!
Fun fact, don't flip the page after you build the chimney. Spoilers...
Nice fireplace! Good colors and some charming decor on the mantel. The little brick-built flame is appropriately sized for this model.
