Yes! The Christmas House is pretty fun to do. :s12::s12:
Did u get the LED plate base too?

I previously did my Christmas House on the given plate and stacked it on top of the LED. The light did not come out nicely, so I removed it and re-did it using the LED base itself.

Share your pics! =D

I think for me...the only problem I have is I don't trust SAL lol.
Always go for EMS that's why shipping damn ex. Is there registered SAL?

Anyway I'm intending to pre-order some of the new designs that are coming in Feb. Anyone keen? :D

if I use SAL and have bulk orders, I can almost guarantee that the price will be cheaper than if they are sold in SG. Not a lot cheaper, but still slightly cheaper. I think it's just a matter of wanting to get it fast for me.

The SG supplier is (SUPER) slow in bringing in new stuff. In any case I am biased against them due to some incident which I shall not mention here (least they claim I am defaming them)

While they do bring in most of the designs, they usually don't bring in the Deluxe sets and some of the mid-range ($20+) series.

The Deluxe sets aside, they did not bring in the Daschund and the Tokyo Sky Tree mini. No LED plate. Not to mention selling 2010's Christmas range in 2011 (not totally a bad thing though...since you couldn't get it elsewhere...)

Yes there's registered SAL.. Pay a few $$ more for the tracking.
Actually so far, I have no incidents with SAL at all. In fact I can receive SAL packages in around 1 week time if it's fast. Slowest, maximum 4 weeks. Maybe Japanese I trust more.. =:p

I was intending to pre-order the new designs too, but no pics leh.. :look: Plus I noticed they're not all releasing at the same time. feb, mar, apr, may all also have.. very bad cannot combine shipping at all.. :s13:

haha...i'm interested to get ALL of them except the collection case (which I'm considering based on what I am seeing in the pictures) and the DJ set. I generally don't like most of the sight-to-see structures, but both Big Ben and LT of Pisa intrigues me.

Actually...I noticed there are 2 items that was there previously but now removed. I recall seeing a French Bulldog (a different one from the black one that was released in 2010) that is made up of both black and white parts and another piece named "White Electric Bass" - I'm presuming is the bass guitar.

anyway GPGT!
