Today, we managed to open (and build) today's Advent Calendar prize before I sent my son off to school, so you get the post nice and early as well!
In the end, I think I liked this little blue snowplow more than my son, which kind of surprised me. No matter, I'm the one handing out grades for this year's Advent Calendar, and I give this one a 4/5. It could have been a perfect 5/5 if only it had a seat or something else on the back of the vehicle.
Our LEGO City Advent Calendar produced the third vehicle of the month, though this is the first one that I think is meant to be a "real" vehicle rather than a toy for the child.
My son decided that this is a 4-wheeler with a snowplow, and I can't disagree with him. That said, I think the back of the 4-wheeler could have used something (maybe even a standard seat piece). Still, I like the blue, and it's nice to have something to zoom around with wheels that actually turn.
Running Total Score: 32/40
This is a really cool build, but that wasn't my first impression. Without the minifigure it looked a wee bit bland. But once you put the dad on it, it really shined. I totally agree that a seat would have made it better.
