Mrcool1804 Posted January 27, 2013 Posted January 27, 2013 As a firefighter I have always loved everything related to firefighting. After missing out on last years contest I knew I wanted to be sure to make one for this year. Introducing the Lego Winter Village Firehouse! I decided to put 2012 on the front to indicate the year I made the set. I thought about 1225 to symbolize Christmas but went with 2012. The set includes 2 firefighters, 1 santa, 1 adult male, 1 female child, and 1 dog. I wanted to include Santa because here in America there are many town traditions that include Santa riding in the town fire truck for the Christmas parade. You can google search it to see what I am talking about. Also after looking at all of the existing sets by TLG I thought the town needed a way to know what time it was, so what better way than a small clocktower? The Firehouse interior includes two beds, a fire pole, fire extinguisher, 2 gold fire helmets, sink, countertop with drawers, and 2 light up bricks! I wanted to do 2 becase I wanted the majority of the windows to glow at night. The firetruck is modeled after several different ones, but I wanted to be sure and set it apart from the one with the Fire Birgade modular. I went with a front mounted pump that was popular in the 40's and 50's. THANKS FOR LOOKING! Flick Link for more photos and full size photos. Quote
