Christmas Build-Up: Day 11

Day 11 of the Christmas Build-Up gives us no reason to worry about what a model is supposed to be or what it is doing in the set, as we are presented with this superb Christmas tree.

The construction is similar to a lot of other ones at this scale (full of SNOT) and it works well; all starting on a white base. Circular trans-blue, red and yellow 1x1 tiles are used for lights which creates great visual appeal. A yellow gem is used to represent a star and I can't think of any better part to do so - except for maybe a magic wand! This caps off one brilliant creation on the part of LEGO designers.

Overall - 5.0 - I have no complaints. This tree fits the theme and is wonderfully constructed. We're back on the right track!

Wow, this one is great. The rest "ehh" but that's a nice tree. My only complaint is there should be 1x1 plates on the bottom section of the tree.

That is one weird looking monkey.

I think it's supposed to be a crocodile.
