I really like this set and may consider it for purchase. It is like a townhouse but set to winter.

It continues to deliver technique such as roof SNOT which has been mainly seen in this series.

Dark tan elements and dark blue ones number well. If I get this one I will have quite a number of DkBlue 1x1 tiles. Brick bricks in DkTan also number well, laid out in the facade and chimney.

Playability does not disappoint, though I know I won't be playing ;) ... It comes with all that a house has be it kitchen, living room, bedroom. The fireplace will be light-able as happens in most of these sets. There are even accessories like gold sinks, toy planes, and bread.

The look is classic and it promises a nice holiday treat for any family. I think this large one is up there as a favorite from this series, even though I don't have any of the sets... Yet, I've seen the Post Office, the Bakery, and the Toy Shop.
