Well, it's about that time. And, appreciating the diversity of this website and not meaning to offend anyone, I'm referring to Christmas because that's what I, in my limited exposure to the world, am familiar with. For, those of other beliefs, chime in as I'm sure you have something on your gift receiving wish list.

Well. What do you want for Christmas as far as Lego products go? How can Santa make YOU happy (okay, so stick to Lego stuff, eh?)

I told my wife that I want the Star Wars Death Star. Not very Christmas like, and I don't even really follow or collect SW. But the piece count is so high and the build would take so long that I couldn't resist. If I'm lucky enough to get it, I'll build it, look at it for a few weeks and then give it to the kid down the street.

My Christmas wish is to be the kid down the street :classic:

For this year, I used some money from working overtime to buy modulars. This has taken the burden off my wife of finding me something. For Christmas 2014, I am hoping that the Hobbit sets will include a very large dragon. That would be great to build next year.

I just want Pick-a-brick cups, baseplates, road plates and some of the coty and lego movie sets. Also a friends set and at least a set from Ninjago and Legends of Chima. The last thing is the Parasian Resturant.

Well, ya get old and your paradigm changes. Building Lego helps keep all of the gray matter working like it should. Plus, I get more enjoyment out of the kids reaction. The build is the big deal for me. Of course, I keep all of the modular buildings. Stuff like the current Lego Sopwith Camel are fun to build, but more fun to see the eyes of an eight year old light up when you present them with a nice Lego product.

Well I missed out on possibly everything I could have wanted from 2012, so here goes:

#1: The Batcave

#2: Jabba's Palace

#3: Palpatine's Arrest

#4: The Batmobile and the Two Face Chase

#5: Catwoman catcycle city chase

#6: Gungan Sub

These should give a pretty general idea of my preferred themes, oh yeah, and I would also love the Ninjago Samurai mech. Curse you Lego for having such great designers, and my budget is pretty tight, so I'd like to not think about what I might not end up getting.

1. Highway haulers city set

2. Friends Heartlake City High - Gotta get that sun-bleached yellow somehow!

3. PAB, PAB Holiday Box

4. Baseplates

5. From BL: parts including Flame yellowish orange and mdazure

6. To have in hand by Christmas: parts to build FEC's Breast Cancer locomotive

Gosh... I guess that's a lot to ask :P

#1 on my list is the Parisian Restaurant

I wanted that too, but it comes out after Christmas, on January 1st. Then again, you could always get a New Year's Day present.

My wish is for the 9398 crawler, this will bring me out of the dark ages nicely!

Mmm, the 2nd 9398 crawler because the number of Technic pieces isn't enough for my next project. And 42005 Monster Truck, maybe)

I don't tend to ask for Lego, as I know I can find better deals than my family can. I do save the Winter Village set for Christmas day though, so that I have something to build! :)

Main set I want is the WVM. Since my Birthday is four days after Christmas, I ask for like three big things. The two other sets I want are the Parisian and the Town Square. The only small sets I want are the three Friends Animal Packs I don't have, and the Marvel polybags I don't have. I might ask for Cinderella's Castle, but that I might get before.

Only thing Lego related on my wish list is the 'Battle at the Black Gate' LotR set, as it'll make a stellar background piece for my Easterling army display.

Instead of asking what I want, I get told a dollar amount and then I buy up to that point. Same idea of finding better sales than other people since they aren't keeping an eye on things. With that said, I ordered my Christmas presents in October with double points.

I got: Town Hall, Winter Village Market, BTTF Delorean, VW Camper Van, and Thanksgiving feast polybag, the four Hobbit sets, Jabba's Sail Barge, Sopwith Camel and some pick a brick.

I try to take a picture of all of them and post it in my Flickr in my signature. The last two year's pictures are in there too.

I wish that I will see a LEGO set in one of the shops in town...although I have just been informed that a LEGO shop was opened in the capital of my country. It's still a day's drive away, but at least there's hope and LEGO haven't abandoned this side of the world entirely. :tongue:

2. Parisian cafe (if you can count it since it comes out after Christmas)

3. sydney opera house (the big one)
