Brickset Reviews

Ecosystem

Winter Toy Shop (10249) — The girl's blue jacket is the same as in Winter Toy Shop, suggesting continuity in seasonal themes but not a direct comparison of set quality

40124 Halloween Seasonal Set — Similar level of quality and appeal; both are seasonal vignettes in doorway format; reviewer's reaction similar to both

Thanksgiving Seasonal Set — Disappointing in comparison; lacks the lovely detailing found in Thanksgiving set, particularly reverse side of doorway lacks detail

Other winter 2015 seasonal vignette set — These two winter seasonal sets do not integrate well to create a continuous outdoor scene due to mismatched wall colors and interior/outdoor mismatch, but work nicely displayed side-by-side in a collection row
