lazuli16 Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 My bet is that they are going to give us last years promo train along with the gingerbread house, with the gingerbread house serving as the train station. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth_Raichu Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 I can see $99.99 with tracks a la 7911 Constitution Train, but no motor. Why would LEGO want to include a motor when they can sell you as an add on for $15? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agp548 Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 I hope Lego puts out a good winter set this year. It's been two years since the last one. That piece of crap remake last year doesn't count. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it doesn't come with tracks, but the cheapest motorized train in the last 6 years was 7938 (the red passenger train) at $129.99 but then the new 60051 (high-speed) one came along in 2014 at $149.99. I have plenty of track and motors 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, they could always sell the train, then an add-on pack with motors and track! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trekgate502 Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 maybe the train will spur some sales of this from the 372 sellers that are offering it on amazon and it is still available most everywhere at retail or below https://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Creator-Expert-Santas-Workshop/dp/B00NHQGDVO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Mack Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 For once, I don't care about a remake. I don't have an old Holiday Train. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcdfan Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 (edited) It's got tan pieces. That checks out. From 2010 though. Edited July 20, 2016 by dcdfan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, the old style wreaths are all over the place in that set. Weren't the toilet bowl wreaths one of the "upgrades" on last year's rerelease? Strange they would go back to the old style in this year's set, though nothing would surprise me from Lego in this line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcdfan Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Honestly, that's the big question. Is this a remake, or is this a new design?I really don't think after last years remake joke, that they'll do another remake so soon. I'm thinking this is almost definitely a brand new design. I also don't think they'll be a track given the $99.99 price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is not possible to have it as an 1 : 1 remake because the old Holiday Train was prepared for 9V tuning not for RC tuning.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
