Friends Advent Calendar - Day 21
Posted by MeganL,
Day 21! The end of our third week of the calendar, and we're heading into the home stretch now. I would expect these last few builds be a little more festive, and being in the winter wonderland, there are plenty of possibilities we might see behind today's door.
Today's build is a sled, in very festive colours indeed. I rather like the use of red, green, and white for the sled. Sleds have been seen before in advent calendars, but I don't remember them coming in a combination of colours.
I also like we had something with more than five pieces to build - while this build wasn't as hefty as some of the workshop pieces, it's still a satisfying build for the day.
And there's another view of the sled, just because. I see there's the potential for something to be attached at the back of the sleigh, which may be an indication of another day's build.

Where is violet?
Am I the only one who interpreted the instructions a having the forward runners one stud back? I had to check the official images to see which one of us got it wrong.
Something is obviously meant to be carried on the double-jumper on back, while the mini doll is forced to stand. The skids indicate this is a gravity-powered vehicle, which seems like it would be prone to tipping if the rider is standing up. The tow bar is really low, so I’m guessing anything that’s supposed to attach to this will involve a robot or skeleton arm to keep the connection sturdy.

Could be the elf stands there?
When I first saw the build I didn't realize it was Friends. No pink, purple, light blue, magenta, nothing?
@SMClabby:
They might be able to stand there, but they can’t hold the handlebars even if they set their accessories down.
@The_Toniboeh:
No glitter...

The arrows point to the red brick, so today's images should be right.
But I think it's a snowmobile. A sled comes later.
