Advent day 18

    Day 18Day 18Both calendars are back on track today after the disappointment of yesterday. Here we have another instantly recognisable miniature marvel: a Y-Wing in 20 pieces. How did we ever manage without 1x1 cheese slopes, I wonder? They are great for adding details to small models.

    In the City calendar we have a minifig, our second criminal, this time in a standard issue prison stripy shirt. Like one of the cops, this is also a unique figure although none of his constituent parts are new. The crowbar is a nice piece and there's even a spare in the bag!

@MCLegoboy, Heck yeah! :P

@Jacob Wilson, it's practically an in-joke now with the toilet rolls. Look for all the past articles concerning the Advent calenders, especially the first 8 or so.

@Jacob Wilson - The Y-wing is a bomber used by the Rebel Alliance, it is in the attack on the first Death Star most notably. And surely the whole point of an advent calendar is that it is a surprise each day? If you do want to know however, just look for a review on here which tells you, I have seen a couple. Also Alemas has a good point, try not to put signatures or repeat comments as it basically just wastes space on the page.

I love the design of the Y-wing, it is very hard to nail the shape in such a small scale, but they pulled it off here.

@Jacob Wilson - Please put all of your comments on a thread in one comment, not repeats.

The crowbar makes a good brick seperator.

@ Juno
Ah, that makes sense. That semi lethal crowbar will get him fatal toilet rolls!
