a lonely cabin in the woods.. including an axe, chopping block and bag..

Somehow I get the feeling that some kids might be getting some rather creative ideas with this set.  ;)

Here is the house all set up and in place.


its a very cute little set and it fit just right on the kids piano


some one got into the spiked egg nog and decided to be a youtube star




There were quite a lot of toys, to many to fit in the house so we dumped them on the porch along with a few other ones lying about. Little visitors came to grab some of Mrs. Santa's cookies while the big man is either on his chopper or drinking more egg nog. 


Now I was able to pick up one more set seeing as it was on sale for $25. I really am not at all thrilled that Geobra is continuing and increasing the use of the clip or modular system (thara's system why). I would have been very willing to buy many more to create a much larger lodge if it was at least system X. I know having it made out of stecks is the longest shot but at this point even system x would make me happier. I will see what is possible for the kids to customize the building with out cutting. Oh if only playmobil was still a "system" and they continued incorporating the educational aspect of building in their quality product.

It's a cute set, despite the darker possibilities.

Thanks for the review ;)

It looks really cute (the shed is adorable), but.. it's HALF a house (at best), and the system Y thing kinda defeats the purpose, IMO.

Btw, "system y" ss not originally mine, though I can't remember who called it that - it IS fitting :( .

Nice review!

The cabin is a bit too green-and-red to use for something other than a Santa's house, so I'm not tempted.

It is indeed a real shame that there are no possibilities for extension.
The only thing I managed to do with the older version of this cabin, is to extend the floor (eliminating the front terrace) and to add some sidewalls.

It is rather a small set but, it does look good and clearly the guys are having lots of fun with it  :rudy: :snowman:  I really like the Elf getting a hug of Mrs Santa  :love: :elf: <*):cracker: :xholly:
