Angels and "Magic" stars are cool-no questions asked, but a big cookpot isn't?
Jezus Christ!!! (pun intended...)   :lol: ;)

:lmao: :lmao: :lmao:

I really wish they'd split the darn thing.. Though.. this time that wouldn't help. And I guess then people could just buy the "core" and leave the shepherd...

It's like someone once said about writing science fiction. You get ONE major violation of mundane reality, and everything else has to conform to that violation or to mundane reality. So, given the incarnation of a god, magic stars, angels, and wise men from the east all follow. But giant, EXPENSIVE cooking pots? No dice.

Similarly, the new Asian theme gets to have intelligent dragons, but gravity and everything else still works as it does in this world.

Speaking of Asia, maybe one day PM will do a Birth of Buddha set. Now that's a weird one! No shepherds though.

But the stable where Joseph and Mary were staying was not the shepherds' stable! They travelled to find it after being told about it by angels.

I know, but that's the best explanation I can come up with for a massive cast iron pot.

Angels and big stars are standard nativity items. They're practically required. Cast iron pots - not so much. I really wish they would give us a man angel though.

Iron cookpot mistery solved!!!
A few of my Roman legionaries just came forward and confessed to have discarded the old thing "in an old shed", apparently they found it to heavy to carry around anymore... ;D

"Yesterday,  after 218 years of intense debate, the United Council of Earthly Scientists & Archeologists finally agreed that the Holy Grail is in fact Mary's cooking pot, which she had used for many years and had passed on to Jesus on his 18th birthday."
