About this deal

LEGO ?…. You want your new year resolution to be that you get sidelined for sales ?… because it looks like you’re trying really hard to do so. A pot and cup of tea stand on a table by the front door, which is surrounded by a distinctive horseshoe arch typical of the region. Maximum outside temperature below 100°C, no flames or splinters escaping in the event of an accident. As I mentioned before, the design of this promotional set suggests that more of its kind might be released, that can be connected to this original build. And as it turned out, LEGO made it clear that it can be combined with three more sets of its kind which will all be available separately. All in all, there are 4 sets to collect under the LEGO Houses of the World collection, it’s pretty exciting to see what countries or regions will be represented next. To me that's a clear decline in quality again, and one that seems totally unnecessary since LEGO had already proven that they can do better.

First off, I LOVE Legos, doing with family or by myself, and I love getting all the great detail provided in your blogs. But I have to say am incredibly disappointed at some of Leif’s recent changes, especially all of these crazy price increase!! I understand that cost of production and inflation cause most of it, but the increases are not proportionally even. And then, the crazy high thresholds on the GWP is ridiculous!! It would be one thing if the GWP was worth it, extra special, unique, or exclusive… but they are not. And the fact this is just the 1st of the Houses of the World series/collections , I don’t see many people being able to afford and collect them all. And as cute as this 1st house looks, there is nothing special about it and if you are going to have houses from around the world, they should connected to its location and culture. This house could really be anywhere. Sorry, just a little frustrated and really disappointed in the GWP series.

And the sad part is that all of the quality issues point to cheaper manufacturing methods like those used by cheap alternative brands, while LEGO prices keep rising drastically. Voorhees Hall, which is the third oldest building on Hope campus, and I assume fairly traditional Dutch architecture from the time. The Service has been prepared by us solely for information purposes to Members and the Service is based on information we consider reliable and we obtain the contents of the Service from a number of different third party sources (including Contributions), but we do not endorse, support, represent, warrant or guarantee the completeness, truthfulness, accuracy, or reliability of the Services and any information therein.

We called yesterday again after the event and it turns out it was quite a different story. Not many people showed up, everyone got it signed and they were left with lots of unsold sets they said. In my opinion they messed up as I'm sure they scared off many customer with their predictions. Our Service is an online platform which provides Members with information (e.g. bottle facts, market-indices, market values and prices) on (mostly) whisky and allows Members to add information to the platform. We do not sell, nor does the Service provide any option to buy, any alcoholic products. It's an attractive and desirable little model which, presumably, is the first of what may well become a highly collectable and interesting series of sets. Absolutely true. Most buyers don't have easy access to a LEGO Store to begin with, and they won't reserve launch-day sets, so making a long drive is risky if there's a chance you'll show up and still be waiting in line when the last copy walks out the door. However, if the majority of LEGO Stores get hammered and sell out on launch day, it's a good indication that the set will be popular. And to top it off, it’s a “meh” set of a house anyway; not something I would put on the shelves with the other pieces I have.

We may, but are not under any obligation, to release new functionalities and tools or other features for the Service every now and then. Any new functionalities, tools and features shall be part of and governed by the Terms from the moment they are launched and/or available. Further, we reserve the right to modify, change, discontinue the Service, add or remove features, update the Service, change its appearance, temporarily and permanently, at any time, in whole or any part thereof. We may sell, license, transfer, assign or in any other way dispose of the Service (including Members) to any third party without any notification to you, e.g. (but without limitation) in connection with any reorganization, restructuring, merger or sale, or other transfer of assets. Although it's not unheard of for boxes to proclaim that the set is limited edition, it is not usual.

I was just saying white and blue because these houses are pretty 'big'(i.e. popular) as a souvenir from the Netherlands. (they are small: 3x5x2 inches - width*height*depth roughly!) That said – I don’t think this is a must-have, so don’t succumb to FOMO as we’re only one week into 2023, and I’m sure LEGO will have plenty of other delights and surprises in-store for us! 40584 Birthday Diorama Whiskybase B.V. (“Whiskybase”, “we” or “us”, company details below) offers a whisky enthusiasts online platform that provides its members access to the most comprehensive, transparent and trusted resource of whisky bottles and allows and stimulates its members to contribute information about whisky bottles to the platform (“Service”). Celebrate architecture from around the world – Build the first in a collection of LEGO® houses from around the globe with this South American-inspired building kit Birthday Diorama (40584):I would expect the third to pop up in the Rewards Center on the 1st, and the fourth to be tied to some other event date down the road (perhaps International LEGO Day?)."
